I am! I met with the trainer last week and got super pumped about working out. So I'm going to do my strength stuff before Zumba tonight!

Thanks Revenge! I am back from vacation and my husband and I are doing Bon Apetit's Food Lovers cleanse since vacation was terrible for watching what we ate. We could definitely tell a difference in how we felt since we weren't eating like we normally do. Then I got sick as we were leaving on Saturday and am still fighting…

Thinking about it a lot doesn't sound weird at all. I've been really good about excercising and working on the 1/2 marathon training. Working out 2-4 times a week, Zumba on Mondays plus at least 2 runs, sometimes 3. But the scale is up to 122.8 as of this morning. I cried yesterday when I couldn't get my pants on. I don't…

How's the cutting back on "cherry coca cola" going?

I know how you feel about needing to cut back. I really want to start reducing the amount of wheat I eat but it difficult when DH loves pasta (and I'm 1/4 Italian) and the stuff made with alternative flours, rice, quinoa, etc. is SUPER expensive. And that doesn't even start in on my bagel addiction. Good luck with the…

I'm really trying to focus on how I feel when I excercise. Which is so much better than when I don't. I slept so good last night after 45 minutes on the elliptical. We're working on clean eating but it's more difficult than I thought. I love bagels but the third ingredient is HFCS. GRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!! So now I need to…

It is fun. I really enjoy it. If you have taken dance before, I found it like following along in class, where no one explains the steps. If you have done any form of dance it would come really easy. It's repetitive enough that if you get lost you can figure out at least part. The instructor used fun music (some pop…

First, LOVE DOLLHOUSE! Second, mine is probably Stana Katic. She plays Det. Kate Beckett in Castle. She always manages to take down the bad guy in 3 in. heels and has a killer bod! Also, my former high school Spanish teacher. She survived breat cancer then ran a marathon (well multiple half marathons and at least one full,…

They're going. I started Zumba last Monday and didn't go this week because I was making DH's Valentine's day present, homemade peanut butter cups. Terribly un healthy but I know exactly what went into them. NO CHEMICALS! Anyways, today is our fitness center orientation at the YMCA and I'm super excited. All those machines…

So I am going to join the Y sometime this week. It's fairly inexpensive and my company has a fitness membership credit that covers all but $25 of the cost. Totally doable. Also they have Zumba classes! I'm super excited. Gonna bust my but and look awesome in whatever princess outfit I come up with.

Well the $$$ has been spent so there's not turning back now! I'm super excited and motivated now. I signed up. I can't quit now. :ohwell:

Thanks for the support gals. The husband and I ran on Saturday when it wasn't too cold here. The run wasn't too bad. We did 15 sec jog/45 sec walk intervals for about a half hour. I could barely breathe when we were done with the jogging sections. I feel like I'm never going to get there. But I went out and did it! Tonight…

1. Eat REAL food (Gotta work on making my own bagels...) 2. Excercise at least 2x per week 3. Run my *first* half marathon Labor Day weekend (There I said it :ohwell: ) 4. Log on here regularly.

Totally feel ya there! I went up because I'm there this week. :(

120.4 but my monthly visit from my aunt showed up today so I'm alright.

:happy: I never wear anything. LOL. I always weigh myself right before my shower. Except last night after working out I decided to weigh myself just to see what the result was. I was heavier than I was when I started MFP... Epic fail. I'll see what I actually weigh on Saturday morning in my birthday suit.

I totally feel you right now! My husband is travelling and so it's just me and I'm craving wings. :( So not good but I'm doing it any ways. I'll make up for it by watching the election results and doing stuff then.

That's interesting linzisparkles. I can't stand drinking cold water. Unless it's ridiculously hot outside and even then I'd rather have cool not cold water. My husband likes it ice cold and I can't stand it.

119.4 from 121 ish. Yay!

I am refilling my awesome Tervis waterbottle. It's helping me get exercise! The bathroom is about 50-75 yards away from my desk.

My favorite snack right now is Vanilla Greek Yogurt. 12g of protien in one container. I spend a little more per ounce to get the individual containers instead of the bulk one because while cheaper it doesn't save that much and I have to portion it out. If it's pre-portioned I'm more likely to eat it. :happy:

I am tired of feeling tired and lazy all the time. I want to get better at tennis and that number on the scale isn't going down like it used to it just keeps climbing. Also none of my regular jeans fit without jumping and doing the pants dance. :grumble:

Today I just feel like a fat blimp, the company-provided lunch is to blame... Hopefully I'll get to work out today!

I LOVE THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
