Fun times!

I've been feeling really good this week, like REALLY good.
I weighed myself today, a day premature of my official weigh in, and if numbers are correct on my scale (which, i hope to god they are) I would have lost 5.4lbs. haha, oh god i hope that's what shows up tomorrow.

I've been working out like crazy. I went to the gym last night, did 45min of cardio and an extra 30 min of strength and resistance training. When im doing strength training.. im also gaining more confidence.. i can actually watch myself in the mirror while doing my moves and not feel like a complete fat slob.. which is good.. lo. My clothes are loose and look kinda funny on me... :D!!!!

This time last year I was doing an hour on the elliptical, and so far right now only about 20 min. lol. I'm increasing my running/jog everyday.. which is good. I'll probably take Alex Longs advice (triathlon/marathon running friend) on going to Fit-2-Run in the International mall.. apparently they have expensive ass shoes, but they'll size and fit your foot for free. Which is good, because my shoes are not that awesome.

I just finished eating lunch here, in the Physical Education building at USF, yummy! Haha they don't sell food here, but I save money (and calories) by bringing my own frozen food entree`. This is the only building i know of (minus dorms) that has a microwave in their rec room (i also noticed all the Phys. Ed majors are constantly fuckin eating!)
My Smart ones frozen meal was suprisingly large... which brings me to ...

FOOD OF THE WEAK!
Is anything that isn't proper portion sizes. Holidays is a different thing, but eating a shitload just because you have it? don't do it. Unfortunately when I tried to do a search for "comfort food"... guess what was popping up the most? Not comfort food at all (homemade suff), but McDonalds and KFC n shit! how ridiculous. Remember... this looks good, but not on your thighs.



FOOD FOR THE STRONG!haha..
I took this picture right before I devoured it, but it is Roast Turkey Medallions and delicious wild rice. There was so much rice, it was pressing up against the plastic film. Really filling, almost didn't finish it.. and if you're following Weight Watchers, it's only 4 points. (For relevance, i have a bank of 34points a day, and a cup of BROTH soup at Panera is 4-5 points). When the portion is measured for me, i realizr i fill up quicker... just because there is food on the table, doesn't mean you have to eat it.

On other news, Keith and I are going to go out to grub this weekend and possibly see My Bloody Valentine in 3D!!!!! WHO IS SO EXCITED?! THIS GIRL!!! And i'm not sure what i'm more excited about.. Keith.. or the movie... lol

Weight In

As you can see, my ticker moved a little further! YESSSS.. at my last weight in i lost 1.2lbs. But i know.. i KNOW i can lose more than that in a week.

I don't realize im losing weight until I actually look at my ticker. Which is GREEEAAAT!

I've been raiding all the grocery stores for all their deals this week: Publix had 50% off Smart Ones, Target had 4 for $7, and Wal Mart had a 'Price Cut', so my freezer is stocked with goodies! I've been doing so well that I hope it lasts :S

After work today I was going to go work out by myself at my jobs gym, however!!!!! I had two friends who were getting off an hour after me, so i waited and we all went together! We all did 30 minutes of cardio, then 30-40 minutes of strength training and weights. It was sooo awesome, i feel like I really got a lot accomplished today.

I think that's my favorite word. Accomplished. Because it makes everything feel and seem better, because it normally is! How about I bring food of the day back? or at least food of the week! I'll start doing food of the week during the entries of my weigh in.. that sounds great! Omg.. how about the weekly food of the strong!!!!??? hahahaha you'll see

FOOD OF THE WEAK!!!!
Even how delicious and beautiful regular ice cream is... think about how beautiful that's going to look on your thighs as dimples. MHMM thats what i thought.


FOOD FOR THE STRONG
A great alternative? Sorbet! It looks just as beautiful and delicious, but way healthier. Look, this one is made out of pomegranate! The ultimate strong food, yuuuum


hehe, hope to update soon! Have a great weekend you guyses!
