35 by 35....

That is my mantra these days!


I will be turning 35 in July and I want to have lost the first 35 pounds by then.  I know I can do it.  I am more determined than ever.  I know I haven't posted in a while but I have been doing really well.  I recommitted to this process about a month ago and things have been going good.  I still have those days when I  can't seem to stop eating, but instead of just giving up I get right back on the treadmill the next day.  I have seen steady progress in the right direction. I have lost about 7ish pounds so far.  So pleased.

I finally figured out something that would make me want to get on the treadmill every day.  I picked out a t.v show that I only watch while I walk.  The key is finding a show that you become addicted to, for me that was the Vampire Diaries.  I stated watching from the beginning and I was instantly hooked. I want to see a new episode everyday, and to do that I HAVE to get on the treadmill. The show really makes 45 minutes fly by. 

I am also trying to get up and do more around the house.  I stated mowing the yard with a push mower, that is a great workout and it feels good to see the yard look nice when I am done. 

I am making decent food choices.  Still struggling with how to cook for me and my husband.  I do really well during the week, but still blow it on the weekends.  I am working on it.  It is a slow process. 

Still loving my Fitbit and my new Fitbit Aria scale.  That stupid scale won't let me cheat.  Whatever I weigh goes straight to my Fitbit  Program!  It is nice to be kept honest!

Anyways I guess that is it for now.

I hope I can post more and have more positive post!

Been Pluggin' along....

Well Christmas came and went....

New Years Came and went...

Here I am again...finally.

Christmas wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be.  I tried really hard to be good.  And I feel like I did well.  But then the laziness set it.  I am trying to shake that off right now.  It is hard to get motivated these days.  I am so lazy.  I am lazy with my eating. I am lazy with my working out.  I am just plain lazy...hey at least I am honest!


So time to get rid of the lazies!  Time to really plan my meals (I actually started making better meal choices this week)  Time to get moving.

I am excited  because this time I have a partner in crime.  Someone who is also trying to get healthy.  She is motivating me with her efforts and results. 

We shall see how it goes..

Till then...
