The Goods

I woke up bright and early Saturday to go the the new member meeting.
Which was freggin hard after being up till 2 partyin the night before. uh hem
but I did it.
I was up and out the door by ten to eight
I made it there and the meeting didn't actually start until 9.
ugh!
So I got registered and bought the hungover hubster b-fast.
got myself an egg mcmuffin (what a great way to start losin weight eh?)

Then I trodded back into the room to wait for the slow comers to trickle in.
There were quite a few I must say for that early in the morning. On a Saturday.

I was sooo excited. :)

I got my materials and we listened to the teacher explain a few things and off we went to be our point countin selves. woot!

Oh.. the weigh in
omg I just about died right there
really

I think the scale is a few pounds off from the one I am used to.
 but we will see.
my weight was 185 eep! I know. (scroll over to highlight the invisible ink)
so.. that's my starting point.
I could blame it on all the long islands the night before. which I think I will. :)
We will see what happens this week.
So far so good.

I went to a power tone class and it totally kicked my arse! I thought I was doing okey dokey on the workouts but omg no way!!
This was intense and I was sweating like a pig after just a few minutes. I managed to keep up with the instructor though until the very end when she did these scissor fly torture things with weights and I couldn't do the last two of the set. But I was happy. I did it!
I missed the classes so I am going to try to go to at least two a week again. They definitely challenge you and burn calories and tone the body for sure!
I will get more info uploaded when I get my online stuff goin in. That's the thing I'm excited for. I signed up for the monthly pass, which includes the online stuffs!

Updates

Due to my awesomeness in working out, I think I have strained my thigh muscle.
I have been sooo sore for days since trying the sparkly new workout, well
ok
since Tuesday.
but the pain in one thigh isn't going away despite my "relaxing" light workouts and lots of stretching and hot baths, it still hurts.
But getting better.
slowly
I didn't think I was doing anything too different than before, but I suppose the new ways of lunging or something overdid me.


So I really have no fun news.
I am going to WW tomorrow morning!
*squeal*

I'll give ya all the goods bright n early Wednesday morning.

I am getting tatted on Saturday then taking Monday and Tuesday off work to chill.
Maybe get some crafty stuff done.

Ugh

I gained three pounds!
I am not blaming the two pieces of pizza I had for dinner last night.
I am not blaming my complete lack of planning or intake of water for the week.
Nope.
I'm going to blame the new migraine meds.
Yep.
Even if the side effects are weight loss.
gotta blame something other than myself, right?
NO!
I have to accept that I messed up.
And learn from what I did and move on.
Which I will do. this week.
I am so excited for Saturday morning.
I have officially decided to join Weight Watchers that morning! squeee!!

I am ready.
More than ready.
Bring the weight loss on bitches! :)

For today, I am sticking with my cottage cheese and lean cusines.
Making sure I get tons of water and lots of good exercise.

Here we go

I just want to share a little bit of background about, well, me.

I used to weigh 100 pounds. Seriously.
Right after high school.
I know.

Then I got knocked up.
*applause*

I gained at least 50 pounds with this one.
Awesome I know.

Then a few years later, Still overweight me, got knocked up again. Well.. We were married, so I suppose it isn't called knocked up anymore.
I gained a few more pounds.
A few notes about me..
I have Ankylosing Spondylitis. For more info on this click here. I have mild Fibromyalgia. I am overweight. I have thyroid issues. I have headaches daily. I have high blood pressure. I am on lots of medications.

I am not letting any of this stop me from finding the skinny chick inside, clawing, fighting, and screaming her way out.
This blog is going to be embarrasing for some. I hope to find encouragement from you all. Please feel free to give advice, yays, boos, anything you wish. I am open for business! *smile*


The begining of last year (2010) I had a dr appointment. I love my Dr btw.
I weighed 214 pounds. (psst... it's invisible, but if you highlight it, it is there.)
This was a wake up call for me.

I am only 5'3 and 30ish.
That is morbidly obese according to the webosphere googly thing.

ICK!

So.. I started watching what I eat. I went on several "fad" diets. I used HCG for a bit, I did lose about 10 pounds and haven't gained it back, yay.
I did the no carb thing for a week or so.
I tried a new way of balancing carbs and proteins for a month or two and managed to lose another 10 or so.

One pound at a time, I've lost 30ish pounds. *bows*
I still have 50ish to go, so I've decided to join Weight Watchers again.
I will be updating my blog as often as I can, so please join me for the fun. (coming soon)

Let's get this party started!
