FAIL

Story of my life!! Another failure... however I must account for one thing good. I have lost some weight. I am down to 219 lbs. I did start to work out just a little bit more than before. And again it's even stopped from then because I am now babysitting my cousins kids but I will make it work some how. =)

Day 1

Day 1 is always the hardest, I think. Taking that first initial step to a goal that you have set for yourself is not always easy for me. But I did indeed take it. I did well. I shopped early morning so that I can have meals prepared for myself. Bought some yogurts, fruit, salad stuff, meats etc. Did pretty good. But then it happened. I was invited by my cousin for breakfast at their place. Fail! Biscuits and gravy. Then again... another invitation to lunch. Fail again!! LOL... ate my little heart out at Tuscano's and I must say I loved it there. It's a Brazilian Grill and well worth the ride over to SLC for. Compliments of my nephew James. So... what I did do good though was this. 1) Played basketball with my 5th & 6th graders at recess. They totally out ran me and stuffed me 3 times. LOL 2) Walked the field a couple of times but fell one lap short of a mile due to time. 3) Played basketball with my ward relief society team. Out ran me again but hey it's the effort that counts right? LOL Day 1 - 999 1/4

What have you done?

So what I haven't done is set a goal this year to lose weight. I was hoping that it would help me with losing weight. If that even makes sense. Which it probably doesn't. But I was hoping that not setting the goal would help me just start on my own to do different things so that I would start losing weight. For instance, working out. Just started this week. Sore for a little bit but not too bad. What does that mean? Well, it means that I only worked out just enough to say that I worked out but not enough that I am totally feeling the burn the next day. I know right? I tell my kids all the time not to cheat themselves and what do I do?? I cheat myself. Well this is the thing. I am retracting my "no goal setting to lose weight" and setting a goal to lose weight. I have seen different people do different things to help with their weight loss and this is what I have concluded to do. I am going to do 100 days of workouts. Exercise for 100 days(not including the Sabbath) and track my progress daily. Also, I would like to complete at least 1000 miles before the end of my 100 days. I know... that means about 10 miles a day. It probably won't happen in my 100 days but I'll try my best and when it does happens it happens. I have already started my no soda and I'm actually doing really good with it. Now, I just need to go to bed on time. Not procrastinate with my laundry. And not eat because I'm up so late. Oka... here's go nothing!

Okay, well that's me... 228 lbs and currently wearing a tight size 18 and comfortable size 20.
