challenge

while starting to do my aerobics on the wiifit - nathan issued me a challenge. 
who can lose the most weight before next fridays office christmas party.

he has giving himself a 1 lb. handicap, because he says i can work out anytime, since i dont work.

sometimes he forgets taking care of baby and house is a real job.  but whatevs. i got this in the bag!

ps he left for his haircut saying, "i hope you werent planning on eating today! im shakin it up." apparently we are going back to shakes. fine by me. with wiifit and shakes, im going to totally win this competition.

pps i love to compete. mostly because i love winning. and so i always win.

a new day

my sister and i have decided to blog together on our weight loss/getting in shape journey.

it will help us keep motivated and watch each other and keep us accountable.

so im going first.  monday, tuesday, wednesday and thursday i worked out on my wii fit. one day for over an hour. its going well. i think. im about to work out now. it should be prit fabulous.

i weighed 183 at the beginning of the week. ill reweigh myself next week and give an update.

heres my longterm goal:  we are going to idaho on a huge family trip on june 10th. i want to lose 40lbs by then. i plan to hire a professional photographer and have family pics of me nathan and lbj taken while we are there, and i dont want to hate the pics. 

short term goals: lose 10 lbs by jan 7th.  we'll see how it goes.

over and out.

just a note

its really important to me that i get skinny and hot ... soon

seriously important

i dont want to be a fat lady forever.

three days in a row, ive had just my shakes and then dinner. im not going to say my dinners were all that healthly and fabulous. but i feel ok.

plus - i didnt want to tell you this - but i gained back some weight last week. so im pretty happy to say that i lost 2 pounds in the last 3 days. and back to where i was ... still 2 pounds away from my prepreg weight. but im getting there peeps.

im getting there.

so even though i said i was serious, it took me a few days to really gget on it.

i have a goal to weigh 175 on july 24. i am not sure i can do it, since i was slacking for a week. but, i am going to try hard.

today i started my shake diet. and i worked out on the elliptical. i burned 504 calories.

so i feel good. the end.

again

haha this is even worse than last time ....

but im (really) serious this time.

seriously.

so i went and had a baby. i gained 23 pounds while pregnant. so .... i was fat.

are you seriously wanting me to post my weight, blog?? FINE! i'll do it. but only because i know it makes me (or at least it should make me) more motivated.

so. before i got pregnant, i weighed 183 (way too much). the day i went in to have LBJ i weighed 206 big ones

yesterday, i weighed 185. so 2 pounds to go to prepreg weight. but i have a goal to weigh 175 by mid july or something (the goal is listed on my wii fit)

speaking of wii fit. that is my main source of exercise now that i am home bound. you know ... cause i had a baby.

ive been doing that - and taking LBJ on walks, if we get up early. its too hot to go after 9 am, in my opinion.

so ... thats it ... just a quick little update. so you can see i am serious.

seriously.


(ps you can check out my adventures in mommyhood here)

remember that one time when i was serious?
so maybe i wasnt serious for long enough.
im back on the train now. las vegas boot camp train.

HOLY CRAP.

its week two, and it was much easier this week than last. not because Jeff was easier on us, but i really am building up muscles and endurance.

my legs are actually still shaking from class tonite. so no worries. this is serious.

so i had the weigh in and i am still at 177.
but ann reminded me that there may be a reason for no weight loss this week.
i mean in addition to the fact that i only worked out today and wednesday.
it was my worse work out week since the new years resolution began, and im a little disappointed in myself. but i am going to get back on track.
so no worries, blog. no worries.
