2 Pounds Down

So this week I guess is my kick start week since last week ended in tragedy. I have been doing yoga twice a day and turbo jam 20 minute work out once a day. I have cut my calories way down and have avoided temptation. I also am taking Kristal's advice and *trying* not to eat anything after dinner. Last night we had company over and the kids were snacking on crackers and of course I had to nab a few.

I am really trying to work hard and I'm so mad at myself for not starting sooner. I don't know what is wrong with me! I have told my self no getting pregnant till I lose at least 10-15 lbs, i guess it all depends on how long it takes me as to if it will be 10 or 15. I hope to get pregnant in August... so 2 more months!!! Here's hoping I can stick to it!! Though it is kind of depressing thinking I'm losing weight to get fat again. But i want to maintain my weight not add on to it. I remember how miserable i was last pregnancy and I hope that I'm able to stay active for this one. I think it will make me feel better and it is good I'm learning how to take care of myself now so it hopefully wont be as hard later.

Thanks Kristal for getting skinny and motivating me to get my butt into gear!! And thanks for the support Staci, I miss you guy's guts so much!!!!

1 Step forward, 2 steps back

So I did pretty good last week, I ate pretty good, I worked out 3 days in a row.. then the dreaded weekend came!! I didn't do much and ate WAY more than I should have! I gained a pound!! How sad! All that work and I end up gaining wait after half a pizza!!! I'm back on track this week, I've already done my yoga and 20 minute turbo jam this morning. Here's hoping I stay on track and not let the weekends break me down!

Better Late Than Never

Sad, but true, i have JUST now started working out. After 4 months of saying i would. I have been doing Turbo Jam workout videos, very good cardio stuff!! I have only been doing it for 3 days but hey, 3 days compared to zero days is 3x better, right? I have also been trying to eat less and not snack at all. So far so good but here comes the weekend, let's see how long I will last!!!

The Scale Hates Me

So I had a tragic moment last week. I had been living with my parent's and had been using my mom's ancient scale, really, I think she's had it since I was born. I don't know why I trusted it but I didn't have a choice, it's all I had. So i finally went out and bought a new scale for our new home, a digital one.... oooooh. I step on it and got a rude awakening!! my mom's scale was at least 7-9 pounds off!!! So after stepping onto this scale thinking I was 147 and then realizing i was 155 felt like I had gained it all in one day. It really sucked. Though this scale is giving me a hard time because I'm already down to 152 and haven't done anything. So don't be fooled if you see me losing weight, i'm probably not I just can't find a scale that works right!!! Thanks for the motivation too, I hope to join a gym or get some work out vidoes soon!!

When to Start

So I have no clue how to get this weight loss thing started. I was really motivated at first but I have lost it all!! I really don't know what to do, where to go or how to start. I feel like life is taking me for a rid and I don't know how to get off. We are moving this week, just got back from Utah where every day was fast food, and I don't even have a scale that works. I don't know when I'm going to kick it into gear but I hope to soon. I really can't stand to look at myself in the mirror and I hate that feeling. I need to get to work!!
