    What are lucky charms? :S

    They're a sugary delicious cereal :) No, they have like, regular oat pieces and then they have these "marshmallow" pieces that are shaped like different things. The character for it is a leprechaun, haha. They're sooo good.

    I'm so jealous! Wish they had them over here!

    My daily report!

    Went to the fair again today, so I had fried dough O:) But I still have a ton of calories from exercising this morning and walking around a lot! And I had Lucky Charms for breakfast.
    Exercise included 20 minutes of the elliptical and about 20 minutes of strength. 500/1000 crunches.
    A few minutes of stretching :)

    I apologize for the lack of updates here from thursday I've been busy with work and just life. I have been feeling bigger even though when I put on my clothes they don't fit anymore, they are too big for me.

    Anyway, this weekend is a rest day for me. My birthday is on monday, so is going to be a rest day too because I want to have dinner with my family and had an ice cream cake (I work for Baskin Robbins, so I'll be having my favorite Strawberry Cheesecake :D) after that the rest of the week is going to be just working out a lot (tons of cardio and trying to incoporate weights.) Any ideas for workouts? I want to do shoulders and back.

    Hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend. :)

    I'm doing my daily report, and I'm gonna post the challenges tonight rather than tomorrow morning. But I'll post my report and then do a separate post.

    I ate a bowl of Lucky Charms again :)
    I did an hour of strength training and I'm at 700/1000 crunches. I almost made it!
    I did stretch but not for 5 minutes, lol.

    How was everyone's weekend?

    Yesterday was a hectic day for me, it was a rest day of the gym because I went to see my new nutricionist/endocrinologist, she gave me a diet that is going to last 2 weeks and then we'll see if there is something that need to be done so that I can keep losing weight. She said that because I started to go to the gym and do strength training is going to be difficult for me to lose pounds as I used to because my body needs to get used to this new rutine.

    Anyway, here is my report from yesterday:
