Back in the saddle

Tuesday, February 22nd 2011

It has been way too long!! I have to say, I've missed CK. But, I've enlisted my trainer to review my diary for the week and my girlfriend that works out with me to hold me accountable to weigh in every Monday.

Over the last 6 months...I've become a whole new person. I have to say the first 6 months on CK, I was half heartedly in it. The last 6 months, I've been fully committed to working out and learning about nutrition. So, despite what the scale says, I've trimmed down quite a bit. I...

Conquering my obstacles

Sunday, September 12th 2010

I did something last night, i don't think I've ever done. I threw out the left over dessert left from our party. I might occasionally throw it out....but not before i took one last bite. But last night, I didn't even think about it.

I'm more focused than ever. Acting like a school aged kid and giving myself a gold star for accomplishing my daily goals. 1) Taking my vitamins 2) not drinking soda 3) Doing cardio every day 4) having a salad with one meal a day. I've been extremely focused ...

Been building muscles.

Sunday, July 18th 2010

Well, its been a while since I've logged anything on CK. Most importantly, I've been spending my time figuring out what the heck kind of balance I need in my diet to really do well, feel in control and lose. I found this very small local gym that has a boot camp 4 times a week. I've been going for 3 weeks and I've already felt the difference in my body. The nice thing, is that a registered dietitian gave me some helpful ideas for what my day should look like food wise. This has helped me tr...

Finally! A loss

Tuesday, June 15th 2010

The long awaited downward trend of my scale is official. Down 2.5lbs this week. I've struggled with myself for 2 and a half months and finally, after much encouragement from other CK peeps, reading blogs and just plain gettin' tired of the same 3 pairs of capri pants (the only ones that still fit) I focused, planned and followed through.

To me, losing weight and making smarter choices is not an option. I really refuse to buy clothing in a size 16. I did it straight out of college and swore...

Victory!!!

Sunday, June 13th 2010

Well, its been a busy couple of days....but my scale has brought me wonderful news...its actually moving in the direction I want it to. Tomorrow is the day I record my loss....so I will do that tomorrow. But if nothing else, on the way home today from the botanical gardens, my husband drove through and I didn't have a single bite of his meal. To resist the smell of french fries or a refreshing soda is in itself a Victory.

I see the results a little bit of focus, which is making me even mor...
