First Weigh-In Monday

131.2

That's a loss of 4.8 pounds and 3.5% of my body weight. The 4.8 pounds is pretty good and the 3.5% body weight is excellent! I was hoping for a weight in the 120's, but that's ok...I'll hit that next week for sure!

UPDATE...so I would have been lighter than 131.2, but that's ok! ;) 

And I'll be ahead of my goal of hitting 130 on Feb 18...way ahead since next Monday is already Feb 2. I'd like to hit 127 on Feb 2. But anything less than 129 will be good. As for my weigh-in on Thursday, somewhere in the low 130's would be good...130.2 or less. 

Heading to the gym!

RESULTS:
- 700 calories - 60 minutes cardio (run, bike, elip) + 25 min lifting (yeah, baby!!!!)

- 230 calories - juice! carrot, beet, celery, apple, spinach
- 250 calories - crackers, cottage cheese, tasting salads
- 120 calories - wine
- 200 calories - wine
- 100 calories - cottage cheese
- 350 calories - vegetable salad
- 150 calories - cheerios
1,500 TOTAL

Lazy Sunday

I was fully intending on working out today, but my legs are SO SORE! I think a day of recovery will allow me to pump it hard again this coming up week. 

Tomorrow is weigh-in. I'm having mixed feelings about it. It always give me such a high or such a low. Perhaps I should be weighing in twice a week. Monday and Thursday. 

THIS WEEK'S PLAN:
- 6 workouts of 60 minutes of cardio and 30 minutes of lifting (gotta kick this lifting into gear!)

- Continued juicing (yummy!)

- Healthy dinners

- Very little alcohol...with a glass of water with each

I have good dinners planned for this week...indian, italian and some other yummy stuff. 

Mentally, I'm just very determined. I am just going to be a skinny bitch and that's really all there is to it. I'm already excited to feel "normal" again at 120 and then really pumped to be skinny at 105 and be able to wear my bathing suit and pretty much anything feeling great! This is it. Gonna tackle this once and for all. Period. I only have one body and it's about time that it's taken care of properly. 

RESULTS
- rest day

- 50 calories - few pieces of cereal
- 30 calories - half an apple
- 50 calories - melba toast
- 60 calories - apple half an apple
- 100 calories - red wine
- 200 calories - shrimp
- 300 calories - veggies and wheat
- 400 calories - gin & tonic
1190 TOTAL - way too much from booze...gotta reduce that this week!

Sunny Saturday

The sun is shining today. And I'm washing my workout clothes so I can head to the gym. I probably need to buy some more workout clothes. I have no idea where all of mine went. Just like with so much of my stuff. Oh well...it's just stuff! Stuff will come and go, but my body will always be with me. Which is why I'm whipping her into shape! 

It's supposed to be 24 degrees today which is practically a heat wave. So we're going to take Lola for a walk this afternoon. 

I'm waiting for my pants to dry and then I'm headed to the gym. Going to do 60 minutes of cardio and 30 minutes of lifting. Hazaaaaaa! I am ready for some sweating. 

RESULTS:
- 575 calories - 60 minutes cycling, 5 minutes weight lifting (got derailed on my 30 minutes since Katie was coming over)

So...my food results are going to be a little sketchy since I had a strange lunch. I'm feeling like I failed, but let's add it up.
- 110 calories - cottage cheese
- 100 calories - blue cheese dressing
- 100 calories - ranch dressing
- 200 calories - assorted veggies
- 75 calories - baked potato
- 25 calories - sour cream
- 300 calories - 2.5 glasses of wine
- 75 calories - popcorn
