Freaking Thursday.

I got in my car to head to work and heard a bunk, bunk, bunk. Getting a flat tire was not on my list of things to do today. What makes it worse is my hubby left to pay bills like a minute before.

I am now late to work and having to wait on my hubby to take me to get another tire....

Oopsie...

Oopsie.... someone posted twice. Now who could that have been? :)

Weigh-In: I'm a Total Slacker

I'm going to be totally honest, I have lost motivation and haven't even weighed myself or done measurements in 3 weeks, which makes me sick. I think after I took my pregnancy test a few weeks ago and got negative results, I've been in a slump and haven't wanted to do anything, but now is the time where I'm going to pick up again and do better. My diet's really gone down hill (being broke is hard to buy good, healthy food), but I have stayed on my game with water. No coke in about 3 months :) I'm going to go tomorrow, buy groceries and get my butt back in gear. I'm also going to start my exercising, I haven't even tried to work with my hula hoop. Even though I feel disquisting and like a failure, Josh keeps saying I look a lot thinner and that my tummy is going away. I still don't see major results, but maybe soon?

Anyhow, here's where I stand as of today:

Bust:42 inches ( WOO HOO down an inch from 3 weeks ago!)
Hips:52 inches (Up one inch, but I'm not going to stress it!)
Waist:46 inches (Down 1 inch from 3 weeks ago :) )

I've decided, I'm book my pinup session this month for October; I need something to motivate me :)

Week 9 Weighins

This was a roller coaster week. Friday I walked for an hour and a half in the Relay for Life walk. I then walked uphill to get home and thought I was going to die. It felt great to work out, but made me realize how out of shape I am. I also weighed myself at my parents and something must have happened when I weighed myself in week 9 and thought I was 192; because I got 219 this time. I'm guessing I got an inadequate reading in week 9, which sucks because I so badly wanted to be under the 200 mark. All in all, I should be thrilled though, I've lsot 20 pounds which is huge! I gotta kick up the exercise ( slacking on my hulahoop, needing to start walking an hour 3-4 times a week). Maybe I will re-buy a wii to reward myself and feel like I'm having fun while exercising? Still a long way to go, and a somewhat disappointing week, but not a bad weigh-in. My goal this week... buy a nice scale that measures weigh, bmi, bone density, etc so I know is i'm loosing any off my bmi.

Better hope next week. To reward myself last week for my hard work, I got my hair done. I quite love it :)



This week, I also plan to pamper myself by buying a few goodies and a cute party like dress in a 1x :) From a 2x to a 1x feels so good :)

Bust:43 inches (down 1 inch)
Hip:51 inches (down 1 inch)
Waist:47 inches (same from last week)

Current weigh as of Sunday- 219
Goal weight- 145

Pounds to go in a year- 74 (ugh such a big number)
