Day 5 2/16

Blahhhhhhhhhhhhhh

I took my armband off for my shower this morning and forgot to put it on boo
Heres some pics of me today.

Ate REALLLY bad. and didn't track ..

 Moving on

Day 4- Where'd it go?

Ummmmmm Where did day 4 go, ohh Saturday.. had a great workout with my client then felt like crap & went to bed. Stupid sinus


ARRRRGHHHHHH Men & relationships... ARGGGGHHH ARGHHH ARGHHHH

Day 3 on Restart (Valentines day)

What a day, I'm glad it's over now, I didn't get any sleep the night before, was on the phone and then went to see a friend of mine for an early breakfast.

After that, came home, got the kids up & off to school, took the two middle ones to school, got gas and then went to the park and walked for nearly an hour run keeper messed up so I don't know exactly what I did, aprox 2.5 -2.75 miles, it was COLD 37 degrees, humid, there was ice, snow & tree limbs all over the place and I really didn't want to walk because my legs were sore from the day before's workout but I did it anyway.. put my hoodie up and walked walked walked. I think there was so many times I wanted to just stop but I kept pushing myself

From there I left the park and headed to my clients house did a little workout with her, then came home and took a nap, not much of once but a little


Later that day I went to the freezer for something and saw oatmeal cookie dough, so I ate 5 of them, then got control of myself, went upstairs and made myself some chicken & celery with hummus for dinner.. Greg shows up with Valentines candy, and I didn't even ask the kids for any just hung out so anyway they leave and I have to take Grace's friend home, so I leave there and drive to Dairy queen and get a Strawberry Cheesequake Blizzard with pecans (small) and devoured it by the time I got home.  Ate 3 pieces of salt water taffy and then stopped!! I tracked everything today and of course the blizzard put me a bit over my calories but it was not mass destruction. Ended up just going to bed so that I didn't do anything else for damaage

Yes I was feeling sad and alone, my first Valentines that I had no one, no kids, no date -- Sucked but I was able to control the emotions to a point...LOL and I got 9 hours of sleep!! LOL

 Here's to a better day today

Day 2 of my Restart!

So sleepy but started the day off great! A friend called and I was on the phone & started exercising, but you know how you sometimes just don't really feel like it, yah that was me, I really in my head was like UGHH I don't want to do this, but I kept moving while we were on the phone.. Finally I told my friend I had to get off and get some work done, jumped on the elliptical and did 35 grueling minutes (Again my mindset said no but I kept going!!)  Then went down to the garage and jumped on the mini tramp and did a beast mode circuit similar to yesterday, step ups, jogging in place, kettle bell swings, ball slams, tricep extensions, and lateral arm stuff did that for 25 minutes!!

I got 61 minutes of exercise in and "I didn't wanna"... Sometimes even when you don't wanna you just have to DO IT ANYWAY!!!!!  I'm an over comer and REFUSE TO FAIL!!
#2fit2quit

Breakfast was coffee & coconut oil
Oatmeal, Visalus, Blackberries & Chia seeds

Lunch will be a spinach salad & Vi Shake

Dinner is Chicken.

100%Transparent restart

I have no excuses, I could sit here blaming this that & everything else, from the failed relationships, to my mother being here to whatever, but the truth of the matter is I chose to slack off, I chose to binge, I chose to ignore my healthy habits, and I chose not to take care of myself.

I have been binging and gorging and stuffing myself for months, barely doing any exercises, and defiantly OUT EATING what I burned gaining a little at a time. Nothing fits right, by the time I got off the cruise I was not happy with how I was looking in photos at all very bloated and ugh!

When I got back from the cruise I got on the scale and I was like HOLY CRAP!! How did I do that? How did I gain 20 pounds I said, Oh yeah all the cookie, cake & ice cream, and binging at night is how I did that. All the out to eat, with Wings, French Fries, Golden Corral & fast food did that. Eating whatever I want on the cruise did that. Not drinking my water did that. So how could I sit there saying OMG how'd that happen, I knew exactly what had!!!!  I was so pissed, I kept saying NO NO NO!! I will fix this!! Grr I got this.. Blah blah blah, that was the 27th of January and here it is the 12th and I'm finally getting serious!! .. I start off good then binge binge binge at night ignoring everything I'd done during the day...At first I wasn't going to post this, because "Coach Krystie had a set back" but then I said you know what... FORGET IT, I am going to make this public...  Do I share this for sympathy? No, Do I share it for "oh it's ok" comments.. NO, I share this because we all have set backs, I don't care how great you are, you will experience set backs, it's how you REBOUND from them that defines you, so I share to help let you know you don't have to keep spiraling out of control, just make that first step and RESTART!!!!!

So today Feb 12th 2014 is my day one. It's also my grandpa's birthday (who passed away in 07) I guess it hit me today that when I was losing the weight I would look at him photo and that gave me motivation to get moving.. so today really inspired me to get my head out of my ass and fix what I've done.

I start fresh--- This morning, I weighed and I'm down 4 pounds from the cruise, to 181.6 I've got to get out of the 80s this is what held me back before was getting stuck in the 80's . Just see-sawing up and down coasting by...

My first goal is 10 pounds, that is totally doable!! I will reach that goal by MARCH 14th!!!
After that my 2nd Goal is 20 pounds by April 20th
And my 3rd goal will be 30 pounds in 100 days which is MAY 23rd (day before my mothers's birthday)

I WILL BE FOCUSED, I WILL BE DEDICATED, DISCIPLINED & MORE DETERMINED THAN EVER!!  I WILL REACH ALL OF MY GOALS!!

I will stop the night binges
I will Drink my water
I will track EVERYTHING
I will drink my shakes
I will get my exercise daily (6 days a week)

Today, Grace & I did 25 minutes of Cardio, It was fun doing a circut again, it's been a while!! Squats, kettlebell, bicep with over head press, ball slams, & ladder work. Plus jumping jacks & then later I did 30 minutes on the elliptical, I'm feeling great & determined!!

I want to look better and feel better! & have my clothes fit again! I WILL MAKE THAT HAPPEN!!! I've done before and I'll be damned I'm gonna go backwards!! I've come to far to stop!!! I'VE GOT THIS!! 

Finished the day with 1538 calories 14 water & 70 minutes of exercise

Turning this setback into my best comeback ever!!! 

WATCH ME GO!

 Needless to say I've had my fill and don't even have a desire for it today, actually the thought of eating chocolate makes me ill! ughhhh....

63 days till 1.1 10-30

What an amazing day again 1000% percent on track even did about 8.5 miles of walking.

got my water and everything is great

No complaints!! Really proud of myself!!!

64 days till 1.1

I restarted my 90 day challenge on Monday, which will take me till 1/26 - The realization that my 36th birthday was less than 90 days away was quite a wake up call! I started my journey in 2010 and got to where I wanted to in less than 2 years,  then the separation/divorced happened and I stayed right where I was for weight (maintained). Then 2013 came around and I vowed, I'll finish this journey, I'll get on track and make it happen, well it's now the 29th of October and I weight exactly what I weighed at the beginning of the year... I can call it a plateau I can say my body just wont let go of anymore I can call it what I really want but the truth of the matter is, I haven't pushed myself as hard as I really could have to make it happen. I think we all go through those struggles on our journey, some last longer than others, but it's what you learn from it in the end that makes or breaks you.

Honestly, my eating has been all over the place, especially since May when I got a boyfriend, lots of eating out, traveling and unhealthy  choices,  my weight would go down 10lbs then back up and then down and up and so on.,. Now that the boyfriend is no more, it's really time I focus on finishing this journey and  making my goals and dreams happen. I do not want to enter 2014 the same size I was when I entered 2013, I am focused and ready to do this!!

Had an AWESOME day yesterday, went for a walk and decided to try jogging (something I hadn't done in prob 8 months) and realized very quickly just how fast you lose your cardio endurance if you don't use it regularly. I used to run NON STOP 6 miles and not even think about it, yesterday I had all I could do to run .25 of a mile!! That made me mad, mad that I had let myself go! WHAT? That's not me, and boy let me tell you, it lit a fire in me, I was in true BEAST MODE all day and even in the evening when I normally lose control I had complete control of my mind and didn't even think about binging or caving into my emotions.

I got this !

73 days.. 10/19

Been a lazy day... I was on track for most of the day, then had some cookie dough last night.... 

74 days until 1.1.14 Oct 18th

I could make a million excuses why I don't want to work out today, I was up late couldn't sleep have a headache, stomach hurts but yet I have my shoes on and I"m going exercise. #noexcuses #beastmode #determined #roar -- Woo hoo update, went and walked outside for an hour!

I had the opportunity to go out to dinner tonight but they were going to Golden Corral, a place I lose all willpower and self control at so I opted not to go. Made a Banana cinnamon shake instead!!  I am so determined to stay on track!!

I'm worth it!!!

Starting my meal plan from my coach tomorrow and strength training she sent me. I will weigh & measure as well.

75 days til 1.1 (10/17)

I would have to say I had a great day yesterday, didn't get as much exercise as I wanted but overall I'm pleased with my day!!

40 mins exercise with client
35 mins elliptical
20 pushups
3 mins jumping rope.

I managed to stay in my calories ranges, had a bit of a lapse when I saw the cookie dough on my table, but with the help of my daughter Gracie I only ate 2 and then stopped!! (THANKS GIRL!!)
Went out to dinner, planned ahead & stayed within my ranges of 1200-1450 for the day!! WOO HOO!


DAILY GOAL
 drink 14 glasses of water everyday ☺
 -track all of my food -stay in my ranges - 1200-1450 ☺
 -exercise 90 minutes 5 times a week - ☺
walk every single day at least one mile -
have at least 1000 calorie deficit ☺
 -drink two Vi shakes a day
 -check in with my coach ☺

myfitnesspal say : If every day were like today... You'd weigh 163.9 lbs in 5 weeks--

76 days till 1.1

Yesterday 10-16 was a great day, I got a great walk in first, then later did a INTENSE beast mode workout
75 of each- 30# ball slams 25# kettlebell swings, 50# squat / overhead press, 20# each arm heavy pants, step up squats with 30# ball, jumping jacks & jumping rope and then I taught a 30 min online personal training session with Amanda
Made healthy food choices & drank my water and got my vitamins!! Awesome day!

my goals until 1.1.14 are:

-drink 14 glasses of water everyday 
-track all of my food
-stay in my ranges - 1200-1450
-exercise 90 minutes 5 times a week
-walk every single day at least one mile
-have at least 1000  calorie deficit
-drink two Vi shakes a day
-check in with my coach

New Goals until 1/1

I cannot believe we are less than 80 days away from 2014. This whole year has just slipped away, it's been interesting for sure, weight wise I've been about the same wait for the entire time.  I'm losing the same 10 pounds over & over & over.

No more games I am going to push through that 10 pounds, break through the barrier and finish this journey once and for all!!!!!! 

I actually hired an online coach to help me as well, I am always supporting other people and really have no support of my own so having her for the accountability will be great, it will be weird to be the one getting support instead of the one supporting. even the best of the best need someone to help them & coach them sometime. so I'm going to be a good student and listen.

Today is day 2 that I have been back on track from Disney, and I'm doing great, I trained my client then walk for 4 miles at the park

my goals until 1.1.14 are:

-drink 14 glasses of water everyday
-track all of my food
-stay in my ranges - 1200-1450
-exercise 90 minutes 5 times a week
-walk every single day at least one mile
-have at least 1000  calorie deficit
-drink to Vi shakes a day
-check in with my coach

Back from Disney

Back to being 100% accountable!! There's only 90 days till New years eve, I am going to work my tail off to get as far as I can down.. I've had a rough few months, and its time to get serious!!!!! I'm not happy with where I am, I'm pissed off that I've allowed myself to slack so much since May and I have decided it's time to STOP THIS and MAKE IT HAPPEN

I will NOT enter 2014 heavier than I entered 2013, I refuse!! I will do what it takes and make it happen!!!!!!

These photos piss me off, I hate how big I look Im not happy at all. UGH my jeans are tight, my shirt is tight... perfect example of why I need to get my ass back on track and get my act together and stop the games.. I'm tired of the up down stuff. I don't like looking like this, and it's time to fix it!!

October 4th -Accountablility

I have no excuses, I let my emotions kick in and binged on candy after dinner... Didn't get any exercises for the day because I had been shopping and packing for vacation around 1.... Today will not be repeated again this month!!!!

FOCUS FOCUS FOCUS




Hannah painted my toes like Minnie Mouse's Dress with a bow !! I love them so much!! Can't wait to go to Disney!!!

October 3rd

It was a good day, I got a lot of walking in and stayed in my  calorie ranges, taught a great cardio class with the retirement facility!!

Felt myself slipping but caught myself and ended the day great~~

October 2nd

Was a great day, went to the park and did 2 miles, then met my friend for lunch, caught myself from eating super crappy, ordered smaller amount of tator tots and didn't eat the bun.. Decided to go walk after lunch and did another 3.96 miles, came home, then later trained a client and we also walked so  a total of 7.24 miles for the day!

Finished the day in my ranges
1335 Calories over on Sodium though, so I have to watch it today!!

October already

oh my goodness where did September go? I cannot believe that October is already here! well I pretty much wasted the entire month of September so it's time to get back on track for October,

today was a good day for my food water and exercises I made some goals for October which include
drink 12 to 14 glasses of water everyday
log my food
stay within my 1200 to 1400 calorie range
take my morning vitamins and my evening vitamins
get 75 miles of walking or more in
Log 250 thousand steps or more on BodyMedia FIT
today was a great start

I had 1.56 miles that I logged on runkeeper and over 12,000 steps for the day which tells me I really got around 6 miles with all the walking and stuff I did here and there.

First week of Sept recap

I have to say all in all my first week was GREAT! I had one day where I ate way to much sugar, but there was no binging and no emotional eating!!!

Started month 171.2

1st 1244 deficit
2nd 1185 deficit
3rd 1183 deficit
4th 1338 deficit
5th 995 deficit
6th 0 deficit
7th 1104 deficit
---
5711 deficit for the week..

Today's weigh in 167.8 that's 3.4 pounds gone for the week (and I've been on my period since Tuesday!) WOO HOOO!!! Really excited to see so much progress!!!!

sugar crazy 9/6

started the day yesterday pretty good, got 2 hours of exercise in before 9 a.m., I was on track really until about 4 p.m. then I started just not caring and instead of cooking dinner I decided we're going out for dinner, went to Logan's and I made decent choices.  I ordered onion petals but I share them with the girls, which normally I eat by myself and then I ordered a house salad, a grilled chicken and biscuits mashed potatoes, which wasn't bad but I know I had way too many peanuts!!

and then it went downhill from there, went to Walmart and bought a box of Reese's Pieces, and a coconut white chocolate bar. I devoured both of them in about 10 minutes, and then later I have a Klondike bar not sure exactly how many calories I had but I know that I shouldn't have had that many.

I'm not going to beat myself up over it it's just time to move on from it, I've come so far this month and I'm not going to stress about it. it is what it is I made those choices now I have to make the rest of the weekend better!!

Moving along

September 5th

Great day, was really tired today, stayed up way to late on phone.
