It's that time again

Ladies,

We are about to approach the dangerous Thanksgiving to Christmas/Birthday zone. I think that I am going to need to refer to this blog more regularly as a support mechanism for my fat ass. If I am not carefuly, I will most likely gain 15 pounds. Watching the Biggest Loser is usually a source of inspiration and support. This time around it is just depressing. A few of these ladies are the same weight I am! ARGH!!

To be continued......

Running One Mile At A Time

Ladies,
We need to friggin' step it up! It is April and the last time we checked in was FEBRUARY. To bring ya'll up to speed.... the breakup diet didn't work for me this time around. I think it was cause I was actually more in a celebratory mode then "I am so upset I can't eat" mode. Grrrr....

On another note though, I finally joined City Fitness and Arin and I have been going pretty regularly. I have also found the runners zone! After many years of it eluding me I finally found it and embraced it with my loving arms. In fact, I have been working the treadmill for the past 4 consecutive days clocking in 7.25 miles total. My regime is basically doing 2 miles no matter how long it takes me but not taking any longer than 15 minutes a mile. With the goal that to shave my time off more and more. I have only run a full mile with no walking once. Typically I will walk a lap, run two, walk one...and sometimes throw in some incline.

Eating and drinking on the other hand has been something that I do need to work on. I had high hopes when I started April as I had planned to do "Anti-Fat Girl Month" which is a month of no drinking that me and some of my other girls try to do every April. I can never make it a month, but I would like to think that is something that I am working towards. I made it six days this go around.

Ok, for real this time...

Ok, so I here I go again, going to try once again to get motivated to get back into shape. I think the promise of spring will def help; this winter has been hard. I am starting the weight watchers eating plan today, I have all the tools at home so I am going to go for it without the actual membership. I haven't stepped on scale yet, will do that later, I am sure it will hurt a bit, but I vow to use that as motivation, not punishment. This time around I am going to try see all of this as positives and "want to's" instead of "have to's".

My lifetime goal is to lose 35lbs; towards that goal I will lose 10lbs by April 1st. No foolin'

Fatty Fat Fat

Ladies - it has been almost two months since we have last posted on this glorious blog. It must be resurrected as spring is almost here - if only in our hearts!
