day 6 of atkins!

woot woo! 11lbs! GONE!! :D

I need to be accountable.

I’m having a hard time. I’m still hovering around 225. My wedding is in 6 months. ARGG!

At least Barrett is on solids now so I can stop obsessing about my calories and milk production. This is good. The sun is shining (on most days) This is good. Barrett is deciding Nap time isn’t so bad afterall… this is also good.

Need to drop 50lbs… but starting at 15lbs for my mini goal. Need some serious pushes in the right direction.

Ugh Plateau…

Anyone else wanna jump on the ugh plateau train with me? Damn these holiday goodies.. I’m limiting myself, but I still feel Huge. I haven’t gained, but nor have I lost anything since my last weigh in. I fel like a walking bubble of flub. My pre-mat pants are still too tight to wear comfortably, my mat pants are too big and make me feel like a frumpy slob. So hard to feel motivated when I’m not feeling great about my appearance at all… It’s hard feeling sexy in frumpies and sweats (let alone walking around with a babe hangin’ off my boob LOL)

Just need some motivation.. My ultimate goal is 175, I’m hovering around 220-225 right now after starting at 275! I’ve done really well.. I just wanna keep it going. My next mini goal is 210…

I think it’s just really hard trying to lose, while trying to eat enough to keep my milk supply up. Yarg.

K.. vent over. :(

I’m Back!!

I’ve gone through my pregnancy with a bunch of ups and downs. I gained a total of 70 lbs total… a lot of which was water. After having Barrett, within 1 week I had already dropped 35 pounds. Wow.

So, I’m on here with a bit of weight to lose. I’m trying to follow the weight watchers for nursing moms.

We’ll see how this goes! :D

Final Goal weight, 175lbs! First mini goal, 220lbs!

Takin’ a break…

for about 9 months! :D Yep, you got it! WOO!

Now, for nutrition while pregnant… that consists of cheesies, chocolate milk and olives right?

HAha Just Kidding! :P

So/So weekend..

My weekend was kinda so/so… I was doing great, then went out with a friend on Friday night and pounded back a wee bit too much tequila. Ugh. How many calories in a shot? Actually, I don’t wanna know… >_<

Then Saturday, after waking with the most horrid hangover I can imagine, I pounded down juice cause I couldn’t keep down water. Again… Calories… UGH…..

Then I went out for chinese food with my Friend Mel.. :P We never get chinese food. I made sure to pick mainly protein and green veggies-nothing battered except for a couple of veggie spring rolls…. and had just a little bit of the chow mien noodles.. mainly cause I LOFF them.

Then… I got home and the boys had ordered pizza. *thuds head on desk*

I had 2 teeny slices, and a small piece of garlic strip, and pounded down water for the remainder of the night-went to bed early.

Sunday was much better! I had a piece of toast with jam (since I was out of my usual quaker oats). Proceeded to clean the hell out of the house for 3 hours… move move move.

Had a small bowl of mac n cheese for lunch… continues cleaning, shoveled the drive. Took a breather. :)

Broiled venison sausage on a bun, with long grain wild rice/peas/carrots/red peppers (mixed).. and some peaches & cream corn. :)

Went and worked my horses, rode bareback for a while, my legs are SORE! :)

Came home, drank more water and had a small bowl of popcorn while watching 24 :D. Called it a night :D

This morning I woke up and did my Tai Fit again… had 2 eggs on toast, and a cup of coffee.

I think I’m back to my regime. I’m afraid to weigh myself :(

Blah… At least I didn’t pound down sweets!

Burrrn Baby Burrrrrnnnnn!

This morning, I got Bradley off to school, then hunkered down into a workout. 20 minutes of Yoga, and about 35-40 minutes of Tai Fit Tai Boe! Woot! Feel AWESOME.

I haven’t really lost anything though.. maybe a smidge. Maybe I just hit a plateau? I dunno, but I feel great today. :) Nixed my regular cup of coffee, and had a bowl of oatmeal for brekkie. Ready to kickstart my day, WOO!

:D

Woo, down a pound!

 Hopped on my Wii Fit this morning, and I’m down a pound! WOO! It would probably be 2 pounds, if my sinuses weren’t filled with a pound of snot. Guh, I hate head colds. I haven’t been sick for a year. It’s a gorgeous day today and I’m trying REALLY stinkin’ hard to gather enough motivation to work with the horses today. What a way to finish off my holidays. -joy-.

Hope everyone is having a wonderful day!

The start of a new year… the start of a new me.

 Hey all, Happy New Year! For 2009, I plan to work my way (weigh haha) back to a healthy and physically fit me. I originally lost 100 pounds about 6 years ago, and 30 pounds have slowly crept back over the last 5 years. I’ve had enough, it’s time for it to GO, and for me to get my arse in gear. I felt SO much better then. I have a plan of action and I’m sticking to it. I want to be fit and svelte again for my horse’s show season. I want to be proud in the saddle, not frumpy. I want to be able to run again… I used to love jogging/running, and the weight has made me hate it. It’s amazing how a little extra weight puts a lot of strain on yourself.

So here’s to finding the healthy me. I hope all of your with similar goals find successes as well! Let’s Git R Done!My Goal
