Ugh

Why can't I get my eating in check. It's not like it's that great of food either. :sigh:

Got to the gym today and finished Week One of the c25k plan. I LOVE the new app i found for my iPhone for the c25k program. It's so cool to use my own songs that I like. I did not go to the gym yesterday. Since i had to drive in, I figured the extra hour of sleep would be helpful for me NOT to fall asleep at the wheel! And I was right. I wasn't as tired as I was the day before. I know it will get better also as I get use to the new routine.


Journaling is eh. I did horrible yesterday and didn't journal at all. I'll journal today. My eating is still out of control and I feel gross but I will get back in control.

10 Week Calorie Counting Challenge

I saw one of my favorite weight loss peeps (Christine) is having a challenge starting June 21st. It's a calorie counting (aka journaling) challenge. YES! Right up my alley and exactly what I need to work on!! So I'm in! Would you like to join?? Please do! The more that hold me accountable - the merrier! =D

It's going to run from June 21st - August 30th. 10 Weeks.

What do I want to get out of these 10 weeks?

1. Define your Ultimate Goal: Journal 60/70 days. Lose 20 lbs 
2. How many calories do YOU need to maintain your current weight? 1900
3. Define your exercise goals: Burn 500 calories per day 
4. Define your food/intake goals: 1400

So there you have it. =D If you'd like to join - go to THIS post and sign up!! We CAN do this!!

Time to begin . . . And FINISH

I am freakin' serious this time. I weighed in this morning . . . it was NOT pretty.

192.2

I am BACK in the 190's. WTF?!? How did I let this happen?? I was in the 150's. I wasn't nearing the 140's yet but I was in the 150's. I have gained 30 lbs!! Now, that didn't happen overnight. And it's not going to fix itself overnight but I AM going to fix this.

I went back to the gym this morning. Step One. Started back on the C25K. I want to get back into running. I want to run 5ks. I want to run a 1/2 marathon. Eventually I would LOVE to do a triathlon. That is my ultimate goal. But continuing on as I am, is not gonna get there.

I started journaling again in myfitnesspal.com. I will check in there EVERY SINGLE DAY. I don't want to see a break. I want to see the automated posts that say Heather has checked in for x number of days. I want that number to go up into the triple digits. I want it to count the days that I have stuck to my plan. And I will stick to my plan!

I am tired of being in this rut. I am tired of my clothes not fitting. I am tired. And I am DONE being tired. It's time to get off my ass and get moving and start eating healthier!!
