Three Steps Forward, One Step Back

As much as I hate to write this, I must say that my weigh in today was nothing but disastrous.  I gained 3 pounds!!!!  I really didn’t want to tell anyone since it’s kind of embarrassing, but I have to tell the truth on my blog, good or bad. 

Not being on a schedule this past week and a half really messed me up.  Don’t get me wrong, I loved being on vacation and spending time with my munchkin but I kept putting off working-out and wasn’t keeping track of calorie counting.  

I was so excited last week when I started noticing some changes but now I feel as huge as a house!  Well I can’t let this get me down, I got to suck it up and move forward.  I’m going to make this week an awesome week and hope to see some great results next Monday!

Next time I want to cheat a little on my diet I'm really going to have to ask myself “Is it really worth it?”

Hard Work Pays Off

I never thought I'd put my weight online or even my "fat" pictures, but I did and I'm still alive.  Getting used to counting calories and squeezing in workouts hasn't been easy but seeing results makes it all worth it.

1. Clothes Fitting Better – No my clothes aren’t falling off of me but they do feel more comfortable and I think I’m getting my waist back!
2. Not Completely Dying During a Workout – The first week of working out was tough but it slowly getting better.  Don’t get me wrong, TurboFire is still kicking my butt, I’m still following the modified versions.  I can’t do the full jumps or burpees yet but I’ll be there eventually.
3. Skin Clearing Up – My skin really gives me away when I’m not eating healthy.  But since I’ve started eating better I’ve noticed that my skin is clearing up.  Bye bye adult acne!
4. Accomplishment – Seeing these small changes has made me feel better about myself.  I know I’m not where I want to be yet but it’s good to know that I’ll be there soon.  I feel thinner, more toned and stronger.  Can’t wait to see more results
