    Here's a larger version of my new profile pic! It was taken this weekend. It's the bridesmaid dress I'll wear in Jenny's wedding in May. This is a size 16, but I plan on having it altered at LEAST to a 14!

    Let's try a link because the images just won't work for some lame *kitten* reason. Sorry, kinda irritated with photobucket.

    Gorgeous!!!

    I think I'm going to go for a short run near my apartment after work, before it gets dark. Hopefully if I stick to roads without a lot of traffic, I can run further into the road where it's a little more level, so as not to get shin splints like before.

    Ugh! I've been so lethargic all day! Maybe it's the food I'm eating? I don't know what. Still doing c25k tonight after work. Then straight to bed for a good night's rest. Tomorrow I will have loads of energy...I hope.

    That reminds me...I BIG positive to not having a vehicle right now, is that I haven't had ANY fast food for 2 weeks!! I think once I have a car again I won't even get the cravings...yay!!

    My goals this week are based of everything I did wrong last week:

    I WILL log calories ON THE WEEKEND!
    I WILL drink 12 8oz glasses of water PER DAY!
    I WILL eat more raw fruit and veggies. (Grocery story run soon!)

    I WILL NOT drink a whole bottle of cabernet sauvignon...

    This sounds so familiar! Like reading my life story. It helps SOOOO much knowing there are others on here having the same problems. Let's use this as motivation to kick even more *kitten* than usual! We can do this ladies. Let's make this week really count!

    Goals:
    1) Work out at *least* 4 times this week (2 days circuit training, 2 days intervals)
    2) LOG WEEKEND CALORIES - The hardest one for me. I'm at my bf's house in another town on the weekends, and my pre-portioned meals aren't very conducive to an enjoyable weekend together...plus, we like to drink :- /

    I feel good about this week Pin-up Girls. Let's get after it

    Ummm so I think we're living each other's lives. That's my problem on the weekend too! My fiance lives 2.5 hours away, so pretty much every weekend I go somewhere to see him. Usually lots of restaurants, but I try to be good.

    Good luck kicking this week's *kitten*! Lol.

    Personal Update: Did C25K--Week 4 Day 2 tonight after an insanely lethargic day. I mean really. I got about 7.5 hours of sleep last night, worked 8-10, took a nap from 1015-1115, worked 12-4, sat on the couch, worked 6-8, then went to work out. It's like I couldn't get moving at all today. And when I did my run, OMG my muscles burned almost the whole time. But I finished. I'll probably be doing Week 4 twice. I was hoping I could move on, on time for once, but no. Not gonna feel strong enough I don't think.

    So, here are my goals and they are unusual for me because these things don't come up too often anymore. I'm making my delicious chocolate blackout cupcakes with French honey meringue buttercream for my besties birthday happy hour tomorrow night.

    I will NOT eat cake batter
    I will NOT eat buttercream out of the mixer bowl, (or off of utensils)
    I will NOT eat anything fried at happy hour
    I will NOT have more than 1 cupcake or 2 drinks.

    Seriously, this will be a test. I am very good at avoiding soda and fast food and stuff like that. However, cake batter and meringue buttercream are a weakness. It's been months since I've baked, (which has been hard for me on it's own) because I wasn't sure I could be in the same room with it. It's like my crack or something.
    Ok, I've put it out there. I can do it.

    Hey there,

    I baked today. BUT I did manage to stay out of everything except the whip cream and it was fat free and even that was just a finger through it. :laugh:
    I also managed to run into the door frame with my shoulder and now it hurts so bad. :sad:
    Anyway, I tried to eat some more calories today than I usually do but I was mostly unsuccessful. I'm going to try and take the baby for a walk with me in the mid-late morning and then kick box tomorrow afternoon, take a shower and then decide if the Mr and I are going out to eat or staying in. Tomorrow is our three year wedding anniversary. :love:

    I've done so badly the past few days, the worst few days I've had since I started! I've eaten two family sized bags of sweets, loads of chocolate, a tub of ice cream and all sorts of other crap! :( And now I have toothache (serves me right really!)

    Goals:

    - STICK TO MY CALORIE LIMIT!!

    - Water!!

    - Exercise!!

    Simple.

    (now i've just got to stick with it!)
