Spring In 2 Action Week 4

 

Can you believe week #4 is upon us in this challenge!!?? Only a few short weeks left to cause some major shrinkage! This week I did what I keep saying I am not going to allow myself to do. Let the hurdles in life cause me extra hurdles along my weight loss path. I realize there are always going to be issues of some sort in life to deal with, thats a given. I just need to find a way to deal with them that doesn't involve food, or me sitting infront of the couch or laptop instead of exercising. I started the 100 push up challenge, and I somehow totally forgot about that too. I  am going to try to play catch up, but I'm so far behind I don't know that I will ever get caught up. I need to either one, find a way to cope with the issues I'm having or two, eliminate the issue. The second I dont know if its even doable. I wish it were...but I'm afraid to take that leap.

This weeks weigh in is coming from what I weighed a few days ago. The rush to get out the door this morning cause me to totally forget what day it was, weigh in day.  Hoping I can keep the number (or less) that I had a few days ago for next week. Esp since TOM will be here :/

Spring In 2 Action - Check In Week #3

Wow, time sure has been flying by! Its hard to believe its week three already of the Spring In 2 Action challenge. This week, has been super crazy... dealing with the stress of getting married (this Friday, the 25th) and FINALLY clearing up issues with the mortgage company 2 1/2 years after my divorce has had me not sleeping and my head ready to explode. But now that the wedding is almost here, and I have dealt with the ex hubby for the last time (God, I hope!) things should resume back to normal.

Last week I was up FOUR pounds... stemming from the six pounds I lost the previous week thanks to a 3 day flu bug. I REALLY wanted to shed those pounds again this week.. but it didn't happen. Didn't even come close :/  Good news is, the scale did go down this week, and I have several more weeks to go before the challenge ends to show my "stuff:.

So here goes the stats:

Previous Weight: 199.5

Spring In 2 Action- Check in Week 2

This week has not been a good week for me when it comes to weight loss. Not that I am really suprised though. Last week I was down a whopping 6 pounds, I knew that most of this loss was from the stomach bug from hell I had acquired for several days. I was hoping I could keep the six pounds gone...but didn't happen. At least not all six.

Good news is although I am up from last week, I am still down from where I was the week before I was sick. So that's good new, right?!

I'm keeping my little 15# button over there -----> because I am going to do my best this week to work off those pounds that found me and be back at 15 pounds total loss by the next check in.

How did you do this week?

True Confessions

Its confession time again. And boy oh boy do I need to confess! Last week I spent three or four days unable to eat anything due to a nasty stomach bug. This helped trmendously with my weigh in. Bad news is, once I was able to eat again... I wanted to eat EVERYTHING! It was crazy, and I didn't realize how bad I was eating (I wasn't keeping track) until it was too late. Once I finally realized how bad my food choice were continously being... it was too late. Or least too late for this week anyway.

I had allowed my self to splurge some because I had been so sick, I felt like I deserved it. Problem is that I didn't stop at one splurge. I was like an acoholic with liquor.  It.was.horrible.

Now that I have came to my senses I am SO angry at myself. I had been finally rockin this weight loss thing.. and I let myself blow it this horribly in one week! Ugghh!

I suppose I need to look at it from the point of few that this is only one week. There are many more to stay on track and shed those ugly pounds that found me again.   No getting frustrated and negative self talk, because that just leads to more bad food choices. I need to own up to my mistakes and move on.
So that is exactly what I'm going to do. Here is to a better week next week.

100 Pushups Challenge

Although I have been hit with the worst stomach bug EVER, and have gotten absolutely nothing done, I did make myself keep up with the 100 pushup challenge. Didn't want to get behind! Today I finished Week 1 level 2 of the challenge. Of course I am only able to do the wimpy girlie pushups. Once this challenge is over, I am challenging myself to do it all again doing military style pushups!

Spring in 2 Action

Its time again for a new challenge with the guys and gals @shrinkingjeans. The last challenge, Power of One was an each man for himself type of challenge. This time with Spring in 2 Action, I've teamed up with Trish B for the challenge. We are the Vicious Vixens!

Along with the weight loss part of the Spring in 2 Action, we are also participating in the 100 push up challenge. By the end of the six weeks, if the plan is followed one should be able to do 100 push ups. Me, I have to start out with girlie push ups, I suppose I am wimpier than I thought, couldnt even squeeze out one regular push up. But thats ok. I will get there.

I am also challenging myself, to exercise every.single.day. in March. I will be keeping track on here how I am doing.

I am starting this challenge up a few pounds than where I was when the Power of One ended. But I'm not gonna let that get me down. Those few pounds are gonna be GONE next week!

We are ready rock! Lets get the party/challenge started!!! Woot!
