Weekend recap

New dress! This weekend we had a lot of parties to attend and it was so much fun. Friday night we went salsa dancing and I could really feel the strength in my legs from the rollerblading.

Today I felt the burn of the fun weekend... sigh... I was so tired today and soo grumpy haha! Sorry sister and friends (and twitter ha!) for listening to me vent all day... I pretty much was upset about everything. Could it be that I'm feeling nervous about being another year older this week!? EEEE!

So I needed to snap out of it, so I went rollerblading after work with these girls (below) It was so much fun and boy did we sweat! I feel a little better.
But I'm tired! Another late night, so I'm going to bed! Hope I'm in a better mood tomorrow!

Oh boy so busy!

I've been sooo busy! like I already mentioned before ahah! But geez I'm non stop! Although I I'm not complaining at all...I really don't mind having the busy schedule. I'm doing all things that I love to do after work...However my Iphone issue last week erased my calendar! It totally messed up my schedule. I actually forgot some things to do yesterday and today.

With my busy schedule I'm trying really hard to follow my goals that I'm setting. So far I'm not doing too bad! Although I'm counting cals I still have been eating out once and while because we just have not been home.

(sister)

The good news! I lost 3lbs! Not much and still in the 150's but I feel good and I feel healthy so I'm happy! Now just to fit back into my clothes I'll be more happy! (It's amazing how much my body changed in those 2 months) I have 4lbs more to get to pre-preg weight then 10lbs more to get to my goal weight a total of 14lbs to go!

Tomorrow I have a follow up doctors appointment, I have no concerns, so it should be quick! (hopefully she doesn't get upset with my weight gain)

This weeks Goals:
*Smoothie Breakfasts (loving this!)
*Only 1 coffee a day (hard but trying!)
*1500 Calories/day (trying trying)
* Tracking calories on Iphone "my fitness pal app"
*Drink lots of water everyday! A MUST!
* 3 bite rule on sweets
* 3 workouts a weeks

Now I'm off to read some blogs then off to bed! Good Night!

New Diet Plans

Tonight I went rollerblading and boy was it hot! It was humid and sticky but I had an amazing workout!

My scale is out of commission right now. I guess it's a good thing since I have been obsessed with that increased number I saw last week! It needs new batteries so I'll need to get them soon, I neeeed to see if it has budged at all! I'm 17 lbs away from my goal...

Over at http://www.thatextra20pounds.blogspot.com/ Sunny is doing a 7 day smoothie and salad detox. So I decided to jump on this too!.

Everyday for breakfast I will switch my toast and coffee in for a smoothie! And Every lunch will be salad loaded with veggies. (I'll head to starbucks tomorrow to get me one of those reusable plastic cups with a straw for my smoothies!)

I want to keep my food intake well balanced and with no extreme dieting here. Smoothies are loaded with vitamins and I've already been doing my salads for lunch so I will continue with this. I know my body and I'm one of those that needs 6 small meals a day. So 3 meals and 3 snacks throughout my day keeps this gal happy! haha!

Goals I follow:
*1500 Calories/day
* Tracking calories on Iphone "my fitness pal app"
*Drink lots of water everyday! A MUST!
* 3 bite rule on sweets
* Tuesday RollerBlading
* Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday basement work out: Ab Lounge, Gazelle and workout DVD's
* No fast food! (no burgers, no fries, no pop!)
*More fruits and Veggies as daily snacks.
* 100 calorie granola bars and yogurts.

RollerBlading workout!

This week I've been doing pretty good so far.
My lunches are mostly salads and I'm bringing plenty of fruit and veggies as snacks. Dinner is hard tho! With being so busy during the week and with the weather being soo nice (well ok it's been killer hot) But it's so hard to stay in and cook! Husband and I love being out in the summer. We want to always be out there trying new restaurants/patio's and cafe's. Summer is just so much fun!

BUT my scale is not looking good! I gained some weight over the last couple months and now this has me even farther away from my original weight loss goal.

I do however want to keep it a healthy and steady weight loss so I will break down my goals by 3 month increments. Goal #1- 10lbs in 3 months.


Yesterday was day 1 of my new activity to help with my weight loss. Rollerblading!


My Sister is really good on these things!
She was guiding me and giving me tips. I did really well for my first time in like 10 years! I didn't fall at all either!

Tonight I have a lot of emails and office stuff to catch up on but I'll try and squeeze in a workout tonight too!
