I Missed Y'all!!!

             Hey guys! So I am finally back. I am so sorry for not posting in almost a week. I could not get my wifi to work anywhere!! I am stealing borrowing someones right now! SHH! lol

                    Anyway so I missed the weigh-in and I didn't lose anything. Which sucks but better than gaining and I ate like crap!!!! So I am glad I did not gain. This week I restarted the couch to 5k program. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I bundled up cus you know down here by Memphis its freezing!!!! And took my little doggie and we ran/walked around the lake, it was actually nice. I never thought I would say this, but I want to be a runner. I want to run a 5k so bad. I did the firecracker 5k in 2011 but i walked it with my dad and step mom. So I don't really count that. Oh me and my dad ran the last tenth he pushed me out of the way to win lol! Hes mean like that ;) So last summer me and my sister tried to do the c25k, but I am fat and she is a smoker so we sucked lol! (theres your shout out) No i am kidding I love my sister she is my biggest fan and never lets me forget I am on a journey that will take awhile and she is very supportive! (I love you).

     Tomorrow is lift and load and zumba at the gym and I plan to stay for both classes instead of just one I need to start pushing myself to meet my goals. I am not trying to be hung up on the number on the scale but its hard not to be. I need to lose 2 more pounds by the end a January to stay on goal, so I honestly don't think that will be to hard. :) 

   I found a new blog. And she is from Memphis!!! It was strange at first reading her blog and seeing pictures and being like hey I know what she is talking about. So like true stalker form I started following her. She is awesome!!! walkinginmemphisinhighheels.com I don't know why I cant tag her. Anyway she is awesome. Go check out my blogs I love they are great women and man. lol

Ok So I tried washing my pillows and the first two were fine well this one not so much lol

Breakfast love me some special K now I need some think thins

Lunch last week and nope I didn't eat that fruit cup to much sugar and tasted just like sugar it almost hurt my teeth!

We got a Costco membership. This was our Friday night. We spent 2 hours in there! It was fun lol!!

She would seriously lat like this if I would let her! I love her though!

He finally bought these blue bell cheese. He said they were OK. I took his word I don't eat cheese.

Hey guys!!!

Heres some pics for TBT lol!!!! Enjoy!!!

 Me and my chunky self with my momma to go see Beauty and the Beast (my fav movie ever)

 Senior year cheerleading I am second row second from the left!! Miss This!!!

 Won Regionals!! Ending formation I am in the stunt group on the left!

                

            I know I know I didn't post again yesterday! And its not my fault completely. I can not get my laptop to connect to the Internet I have no idea what to do! So I am doing the updates on it while using my moms computer. I really hope that fixes it because I have no more ideas on how to fix it. Ok well that didn't work lol!!!! I am going to die!!!!

                     Anyway! So yesterday I went to spin class!!! I love spin class!!! It hurts so good!! Ok well here's an embarrassing  funny story! The first time I ever went to a spin class it was senior year and high school and I thought I was the you know what! I was in shape too I had cheer practice everyday so I thought I was awesome lol! So me and my step mom go to the class and I did everything every time she said crack that resistance I sure did. I did every hill, run, and speed run. and I felt good!!! Well until I got off the bike. My legs felt like jello! I mean holy cow so I stretched, and felt sore but ok. Well the next morning I was really sore, but honestly did not think to much of it. But holy cow the next day I thought I was going to die!! It hurt so bad I could barely bend my knees. So me being so cool. I did not say a word I just took some tylenol and toughed it out. Well the next morning (TMI) I went to go pee and it was BROWN. It was disgusting so I made my dad meet me at the doctor (yes I drove it killed me) turns out I pulled BOTH my muscles on top of both thighs!!!! I could not even get on the patient table I had to sit in the little chair in the corner! So I missed two days of work and was on muscle relaxes and had to take Epsom salt baths. And to make matters worse it was the same week as Valentines day!!! So the first Valentines I spent with Garrett consisted of my sleeping because of the muscle relaxers and him playing the video game I got him with his best friend! But when I finally woke up we went to go eat and I couldn't even put on own socks on he walked it to me crying and trying to bend over. He ended up putting them on for me and to this day makes fun of me for it!!! So lesson learned do not push yourself to hard it is not worth it lol!!!

                           Alright so today I went to lift and load and it felt so good! I love this instructor so much!!! I feel like I get such a better work out if my instructor rocks!!! Alright I have over 800 calories left for the day so Im off to find something good and healthy to eat!!!!

See yall tom for weigh ins!!!!

Laters!!!

Ice storm 2013 Day 2!

Hi all!!!
   

     I am so sorry I haven't posted since Friday! My wifi is so messing up! I am borrowing someones elses Internet right now lol!!!!

Well I live in a little city south of Memphis, TN and the weather here is INSANE!!!!  It was 73 on Saturday and on Sunday it was in the 40s and now Monday and Tuesday it is below freezing and the weather man is saying we could get up to a half inch of ice! That's crazy to me. But my boss did let us leave at 4 today so that was cool. And do you know what I did with my extra hour of freedom???

I cleaned my carpets!!! That was so disgusting!!!! And most of it was little white hairs! I wonder where those come from lol!!! And as you can see by my naked mattress I am doing my sheets and pillows as well. Yes pillows! I love pinterest! So I go to the YMCA and they of coursed closed today and all the classes were canceled yesterday so I didn't get to go to the gym. :( but with all the cleaning that I have don't over the two days I don't feel guilty!!!!! So I just finished up watching One Tree Hill on Netflix. I mean I watched every single episode!!! I loved it and sad that it is over! So I need some new movie suggestions!!!  I really hope the gym and all the classes are still going on tomorrow. I miss them and it doesn't take that long to get out of a good habit!

Now for some pictures!!!!

 This is how Mila thinks she has to ride in the car!!! I love her so much! I mean how freaking cute is my dog!!!!

And this is how me and Mila spend our Saturday mornings while daddy is at work!!!! 

And this would be my windshield at my lunch break!!!

Alright guys I got to go finish my laundry so I have something to sleep on and I also need to finish cleaning out my second closet. Yea I cool and have two lol!!!  I love early spring cleaning!!!!

Laters!

Friday! After Gym!!!

Hi!

      My arms are so sore trying to type this lol! I went to the gym that is at Garrett's (the boyfriend) apartment. It is a nice gym do not get me wrong, but holy crap! The equipment is so rusty and the elliptical doesn't count calories or distance, but it does track time and resistance. So I'm ok with that lol! and when I was using the ad machine there was white paint chips all over my pants. I thought that was kinda funny!!!

So I did 15 minutes of H E double hockey sticks  on the eliptical and did the arm workout that we do in lift & load. Then I moved to the leg and ab machines. I heard that it is bad to work out more than one muscle group at a time, but then what about lift & load or the body pump classes they work the whole body. But IDK I am not an expert lol!

Oh yea I lost 8 POUNDS!!!! I am so happy!!!! and I don't plan on finding them any time soon.

And now for your viewing pleasure some pictures!!!!!

 Yup I needed a gym mirror pic!!!!

The elliptical! lol

 Planking it omg 40 seconds sucks lol

 See all that rust!!! eww!!!

 And I forgot my socks so Garrett's worked lol! I hate those huge socks!

After!! How gross!!! 

And Lennys!!! I also had lennys for lunch! I LOVE THEM!!!! and will have the left overs for lunch tom!!!! I need to do the no carbs! But hey its wheat bread! And its only 198.5 calories! Because I do not eat cheese or mayo! Or really anything on it expect for meat and lettuce!!! oh and some chips lol!!!

Alright well that's about it! If I can wake up in time I will go to the Y and do circuit training at 9:30 but I love to sleep! If not I will go do a work out by myself! I don't know if its just me but I feel like I get a better work out when I go to a class than by myself. I feel like I push harder, but I was proud of myself tonight though, I pushed myself pretty hard!!!!

Alright guys I'm out for the night! Talk to yall tomorrow!!!

Laters!

FRIDAY and Weekly Weigh-In!!!

HI ALL,


   Ok, I am so excited!!!!!! I got emails from 3 of my favorite bloggers! I feel so star-stuck!!! I love them and cant help that they are so awesome. I seriously look up to them. They are amazing motivators!!! +Mama Laughlin, @ellenoel, @southerngirlfitness!!!! Im not sure why the others aren't tagging! :(

Oh Well!

Ok and the big news!!! (drum roll please!!!!!!)

I LOST 8 POUNDS!!!!!!

I am so excited!!! I know that most of that is probably water weight and not actually fat but hey a pound is a pound!!!!  So I have been doing really well with my eating habits. I want to try low carb or no carb days like every other day. But I am really picky and honestly have no clue what I am doing. I know no beard (and yes I typed bread I do that every time my mom loves to make fun of me for that) BREAD! lol!

So I think of all this stuff to write in my blog and when I sit down to actually write it, I have no clue what to say!!! I hate that I need a note pad! lol

Ok I have a little over 4 months for the operation red bikini and I think I will hit my goal of losing 30 pounds and dropping two pants sizes!!! That makes me so very happy only 22 more pounds to go!!! That's so nice seeing that number in the 20's!!!! I have to admit I don't really see myself actually winning the prize package (even though that would be so supa awesome!!!!!!) I am just so happy to lose this weight I feel like I can finally do it!!! I love this feeling!

So I am sitting here watching the boyfriend play COD on his new xbox (yes I am an amazing girlfriend) and I am tired of listening to him yell lol! So I am going to the gym! No gym classes tonight so I will be going to his apartment gym and doing cardio, arms, and abs!!!!!! Talk to y'all later!!!!!

Laters!

PS. Sorry no pictures today, I was a hot mess waking up at 7:30 lol Maybe after I get done working out!!!

Its almost Friday!!!!

Hi all,


             I am so sorry I did not post yesterday. I was exhausted. I actually feel asleep before 8:30! That's right I slept 11 hours and it felt amazing!!!! I have never felt so more rested than I did today! And that being said I am now exhausted again after the gym! I did Lift & load again. We had a different instructor tonight and she has no idea what the word break is! (I love it) It was awesomely tiring!

So today I went a little over my calorie limit but was only over by 28 calories so I think that wasn't that bad. I think it was a good day I kinda wish I would have stayed for zumba tonight but I really did not want to push it because my legs were really sore this morning, but now I feel great!!!  So tomorrow will be the first official weigh-in and I feel like I have lost weight, but still hope its more than 2 pounds so that way I will still be on track for my weight lose plans. I think I will make it just hoping! and now for some pictures.

This was from Tuesday I could not upload pictures.

 And this is my first baby chilling out watching wheel of fortune with me after the gym yes she is spoiled rotten lol

And this is her later mad at me, well because I shaved her. Yes I shave my dog! She has white fur and sheds EVERYWHERE!!!! And the hair really messes with my sinus. She does not hate me for long. She is now currently cuddled up next to me!

Alright well that's it for tonight! and for you encouragement! I love this one!!!

Laters!!!

Terrific Tuesday!!

Hi all,

          Sorry this post is so late I just got home from the gym. Ok so I did not make it to Zumba. :( I had to run home before the gym and if I do this I miss the 5:30 class. But I did however make it to the gym. And did cardio on the elliptical and stationary bike for 30 min each! My legs are supa tight. I need to stretch before!

      The rest of my day was great. I ate under my 1200 calorie goal and burned tons of calories!!!! For lunch I ate left Lenny's that my wondeful boyfriend bought me last night (and yes I took pics but cannot upload them cuz I'm on my phone)  I had a club with just meat and lettuce only! remember number 11 yesterday i am picky and do not eat cheese or mayo or really any condiments and salad dressing. So what the crap am i not skinny yet lol and for dinner I just inhaled a peanut butter sandwich. I love the jiffy natural peanut butter on the round bread from Kroger. I have no idea what it's called but it's 190 calories and I love it!!!! Also I am eating peas and I put Cajun shake and pepper on them and I could eat them everyday!!!! Love it!!!


     Ok for tomorrow I will hopefully be going to spin class at 5:00. And for those of you who are keeping score I don't get off till 5:00. So I will beg my boss to let me off at 4:30 and only take a 30 min lunch! :( I am so spoiled I hate to give up have my lunch break! But I guess I love spin more!!! No but my boss is really cool just as long as I do my work and not miss any time he is awesome!!!!

All right. Well I am beat for today and will holla at y'all Tom!!!!

Monday Gym Recap!

                 Ok soooo..... I only took the lift & load class. Robin, the instructor, tried to kill us or at least make us puke. I was dead tired and will hopefully be feeling that awesome burn tomorrow. Even though my body feels like jelly, I feel great! I love that post workout high.

         So tomorrow I will be taking Zumba at 5:30 and will be looking like a fool. Hopefully they will hold the class in the gym with no mirrors! I don't care what I look like unless there is a mirror there.

This is me and Mila! We were tired after my work out! I have a chihuahua/fiest dog named Delilah, and about 3 weeks ago me and Garrett got Mila she is a full-blooded boxer and is the sweetest thing.

 and this would be my wonderful boyfriend! This is what he does when I'm trying to write. 

We are currently watching the BCS Championship! Roll Tide! He is going insane! This game will probably be a shut out! Which makes for a very happy boyfriend!!!

Laters!

Manic Monday!

Hi all,


So I am surprised that I got so many page views on my first post. I am touched!

First I am going to tell y'all a little more about myself just in case more than my boyfriend and mom read this.

1. I bake.
2. I love pink and glitter.
3. I am going back to nursing school (just filled out my application today)
4. I love netflix.
5. I love buffalo sauce will eat it on everything.
5. I can not whistle.
6. I have two tattoos.
7. I have a wonderful boyfriend of 3 years.
8. I have 5 siblings and 5 nephews.
9. I will do anything for my family.
10. I am obsessed with my iPhone.

       Ok now onto my second post. It is Monday and I hate Mondays. Not really just hate waking up on Mondays. Like I have to be at work at 8:00 and I woke up at 7:25. I have a problem. But I love my sleep. Now I am working till 5 not right now I am on my lunch, on my own computer thank you very much. Then I am going to the gym and hopefully can make it through lift & load and spin class. I have to say those are my two favorite classes. In case you didn't know lift & load is like a body pump class, but the Y calls it lift & load. I am so excited about getting back to the gym again. Lol! so for lunch I had half a baked potato and some chicken fajitas, but with no tortillas. I don't like those. (Oh 11. I am picky.)
I went and bought buffalo sauce at the Walmart so I could fix my craving. Hey its only 10 calories, and I love it.  Now here are some pics because well its what all the cool bloggers do.

This is whats left of my left overs from yesterday of course buffalo sauce and my water!

 These are special k popcorn crackers! I love popcorn and these don't taste just like them but for 60 calories I sure can pretend.

So this past weekend was my boyfriend's birthday. So Shout out to him. Happy birthday babie. I love you.

Ok well I will probably write again tonight after the gym. Have a great day.

Laters!

First Post!!!!!!!

Hi all,


          This is my first post (DUH). So I have been following all the great bloggers like +Mama Laughlin, ellenoel, where we can live like jack and sally, and southern girl gets fit. (idk how to tag their blogs I'm sorry). I decided to start this blog because I wanna be just like them  I need to get the lead out of my butt and get fit. Maybe thats why its so heavy!!! So I have decided to do the #operationredbikini with Kassi @southern girl gets fit. I cyber stalk her she has know idea who I am. I hope she doesn't think I'm crazy, but she is my fitness idol. Anyways my UWG is to lose 65 pounds and to be a size 6 who knows maybe one day a 4. But for operation red bikini its 30 pounds by May 31st and i need to get on it. No more fast food and dr pepper.

   I will post my pre-workout weight never!  No I will when I actually start losing it probably after because the boyfriend will probably be my only follower and I cant scare him off. I have already invested too much time in him! 3 whole years lol! No I love him! He is my rock and will do anything and everything for me. He is my biggest fan and loves all my rolls lol! So here is the before picture.

This is in Cozumel this past september. I was on the weight loss train before this cruise and lost 21 pounds! but after the cruise I fell off :( So I am hopping back on!!! Hello camel toe! So embarrassing!
     
        So tom is monday and I will be going to the YMCA, and taking Lift & load at 5:30 and if im not dead Y-cycle (spin) at 6:30. Thats pm yall I am so not a morning person. I worked out once at 5:30 AM and loved it, but thats only because I could not sleep so not by choice. I am on fitness pal and it tells me to eat under 1200 calories and I plan to stick to that. I love fitness pal! So I will def be posting food and self pics just like all the cool bloggers!

Well thats about it for today.
