Well, the Holidays did NOT treat me well!!! :( I was sooo proud when I reached 160...then BAM I caved with the Halloween Candy - didn't hurt too bad....Thanksgiving is what KILLED me!! I just can't say no to Mashed Potatoes and Mac and Cheese!!! And unfortunately, these are two very big staples at any family function! So, I over ate....waited a little bit, then overate some more....the pattern pretty much continued through Christmas. Then, I stepped on the scale and saw 168.9!!! Oh My GOSH!!!! I was so close to passing back over to that dreaded 170 mark that I have been trying ever since then to get back on my "diet" which really isn't a diet so much as watching what I eat, and how much I eat!! I am trying not to eat out so much, and to cook healthier meals. I recently bought the Biggest Loser Cookbook , and have been slowly implementing those into our weekly meal plans. My fridge looks like the produce isle - which is definitely a good think!! I am about to start trying to make my own Cream of Whatever soups, and slowly start cutting out processed foods all together. If I can just get my kids and hubby on board, I'll be all set to go!!!! :)
I've also been doing really well with getting back into the gym. I'm not hitting it super hard like I was before - going 2+ hours every day!! I am going every day with the exception of Monday and Wednesday nights, since I work the next day, for an hour. I am alternating cardio and weights. I am determined to do this right this time!!!
I hope that this isn't just another false start, but I think with Janis pushing me to workout with her during the day, that I can do it!!! I mean, if she can loose her baby weight after only 4 months (this is the 2nd kid for her too) then I can do it after almost 2 years!!! I know it's going to be harder, but I am tired of feeling so horribly about myself. I am tired of looking at my pictures and seeing the fat rolls!!!
INSPIRATION!!
That's a YOUTH MEDIUM shirt, and size 5 jeans!!! I WILL GET there!!!
