Hey I am still here.

I too feel as if I have plateaued. Was running four times a week with my friend Sussannah, then doing Pilates. Then my life got crazy with school work and volunteering at the middle school. Hoping to start up again in the coming weeks with school finishing up! Let's get remotivated!

Found a smoothy recipe that's pretty good. All I had was grapefruit juice which makes a smoothy a little tart and even bitter, so a different juice would be better- like mango. Add banana, a flavored yogurt, blueberries or other fruit if you have it- I didn't but I used rasberrie yogurt, ice. Blend till ice is crushed. Add cinnamon and nutmeg- mmmm good.

WHERE IS EVERYONE! IT'S BEEN HARD FOR ME TO STICK WITH THE BLOG BECAUSE I'VE BEEN PLATEAUED FOR OVER A MONTH. BUT TODAY I HAD A .2# LOSS SO I POSTED THE SUCKER. LET'S GET REMOTIVATED!!!

Biggest Loser Finale Tonight!

Where is everybody and how is everybody doing? I've been stuck at the same weight FoReVeR but I feel a million times better than I did when we first started so I'm not complaining at all. Biggest Loser finale is tonight! I'm super excited!

Hey all. Still Keepin on in Florida!

So I am not sure if I have lost anymore weight because I keep forgetting to weight myself when I go to work. But according to my little measuring tape I have lost an inch off of my waist! so I am pretty excited about that. I just got to get the ice cream out of my house and I will be good!

I have become re-motivated

Hello all. Since doing the march of dimes walk, I have become re-motivated, and have started working out again in the morning. I even went for a jog today. I am beginning to be proud of my legs again! I even bought two pairs of shorts to show them off! Anyway haven't lost any weight thats why I haven't updated my counter. But I am feeling a lot better.

ALMOST AFTER PIX- 10 MORE POUNDS!

A little more off the legs, lots more off the stomach, some more off boobs, and please NO more off butt!

TIP OF THE DAY

We've maybe discussed this before but dad and I bought a weight scale and he weighs everything. Liv- you joked about Barb's 1" square meat portions. Well, that's a little bazaar, but realistically a serving of meat, depending on thickness of course, is probably only about 3 " by 3". So serving sizes are important and they're a lot smaller than most of us are used to eating. So my tip of the day is, if you have a scale, weigh your servings especially meat. OK, actually I have a few more tips. When you fill your plate, before you eat it, put a third of it back in the pan or wherever it came from. Serving size is a huge issue. Last week we had a couple of family meals and I was eating bigger portions than normal and "picking" at stuff. I put three pounds on like over one night. It's back off plus another pound so I got right back on my program and even cut my calories down a little to make up for a bad couple of days. Anyway, this morning I hit 128# which is 10 pounds from my goal. Also, I have to weigh every day, at least for now. Jenny says the same thing. It used to just discourage me if I gained, but this time it motivates me. Sooo... three tips- watch your portions by weighing or measuring them, be aware of how much food is on your plate, and weigh every day- at the same time by the way. Good luck everyone. Liva- one suggestion. You're in a good exercise routine and are obviously gaining muscle so maybe not losing like you would like. Here's a suggestion. Cut 300 calories a day by eating one less slice of bread and butter, one less treat- if you even allow treats, or just by putting a third of your food back after you've put it on your plate.

I Think I Birthed a Kid This Morning!

The scales finally moved. Course I think it's because I "birthed a kid" this morning. Sorry! I'm doing a Liv thing. But, yeah, down .8#. I'll take it.

Dinner Tonight

This is Liv's yummy salad and her pork/asparagus meal except I used chicken cause I didn't have pork. Pork would fit better I think, but this was a really good dinner. We had some of daddy's nice warm ciabatta bread with it. MMM good! When I noticed the shadow on this pix I was gonna take another one then realized I already ate the food. Silly me!
