I'm down with the cold. I guess that's why I had so much trouble with the 30DS on Monday. My head spins, I have the chills, my nose is running a marathon and is so red I'm sure you can see it from the moon. I had to leave work early yesterday since my ears were ringing and I had a hard time computing what the customers were telling me. Not a pretty ( Read more... )

Stepped on the scale today: 241.4! Not much of a loss, but.. A loss is a loss! That means I have to step up this week, 'cause I really want a new nail polish, and I can't buy more until I have an official 5 pounds loss mark. But I'm happy I'm under 242. Let's keep this up, babay!!  See stats below:

HW: 246.2    (Highest Weight)
LWW: 242.2 (Last Week' ( Read more... )

I really need to step up my game.. I need to make better choices! Today's food went like this: no breakfast, woke up too late. Had lasagna for lunch. Then I had a banana before I went to work (happened to be after my workout too). I brought as a snack a little pre-packaged cup of cottage cheese with strawberries, with 2 bran wafers. Came home for " ( Read more... )

Well, I caved in. I stopped the Si6 program. .. For now! Though I do believe the program works if fallowed properly, I just can't get pass the annoying instructor. It really kicks my ass, but some of the stuff I can't do because my hips will hurt during/after. I need to get my muscles around my hips stronger so that I can do these exercises.

So I ( Read more... )

Not the best day today for eating. We don't have much left to eat, so I ate crap. We're gonna go get some groceries tomorrow, so that we can make better meals. I didn't exercise today, as I was giving myself a break before the big step ahead tomorrow.

At this point in time, I think I'm more interested in losing inches than losing weight, since my ( Read more... )

Just finished the 3rd day of the 30DSH program. Oh my.. My calves hurt so much! I feel like they're gonna cramp at any moment. So I have to modify some of the jumping involved, otherwise I won't be able to do any of it at all. I sure hope it's gonna get better soon.. I feel dead when I'm done, though..

To help with the soreness, I read that ( Read more... )

I survived my first day of the 30 Day Shred program. I'm sore all over, though! I expect it to wear off in a couple of days. So I'll have to work through the pain today! It's tougher this time, though. I'm now using 1.5kg (about 3lbs) hand weights for half the exercises because I'm not use to using them just yet. I'm hoping I'll be able to use them ( Read more... )

I've been living on my own since Sept 2nd now, and weight wise, I gained all the weight I had lost when I was with SFL. I guess it's because we eat take out and such so much. I try to make healthy meals, but as much as I love cooking, we have so many leftovers we don't feel like eating them anymore. So we just established a rule last night: we'll ( Read more... )
