Welp I am the poo...just sayin :) I have worked hard and lost 8 bls!!!! YA YA I know it's only 8 bls but it's also only been 2 weeks! I will make this pretty short and sweet I ordered TurboFire and it was the best thing ever.  I know I have been doing Zumba and Yoga but it just gets to boring. I have done Turbokick on and off for almost 4 years and I have never grown tired of it. It is so much fun!!! I mean who can really say that about ANY work out? It's a 9 week program that gives a day by day set of what I should be doing and I am so excited for this next 9 weeks :)



GOOGLE IT!!!! LOVE IT!!!!!

What motivates you?

Everyone has that person that motivated them and I believe me friend is a huge motivation, but it would be just odd to look at her picture everyday. I cant hang her picture on my mirror or at my desk, that is just creepy. What I have done was at the suggestion of multiple people. I took a picture of myself. UMMM NO BUENO. I wont post it up because I am so embarrassed, but that to me is huge motivation. I am not the prettiest girl ever but I am not ugly at all. I just need to be healthy. I have to say a lot of these celebrates annoy me with their skeleton like figures. Where's the fun in that? A woman with no curves is like jean without pockets, you have no where to put your hands! Everyone says that Beyonce has such a great, healthy body image. I am not a big fan so I don't take much motivation from her looks. I am more of a Ciara fan myself. Yes she is very thin but have you seen her muscle tone? Girl is tore up from the floor up. Anyone can clearly see all that dancing has given her that bangin muscle tone.


Now I know I know I have almost preached the fact that I do not want to be super skinny you this woman has impressive muscle tone, I am jealous. So when I look at this I don't think, "Man if I could just look like her I would be happy", for me it's more "If I keep working at it I could wear tank tops and show off my sculpted shoulders". We all look and feel different things when we see pics of these women but we need to remember they most likely have a trainer, dietitian, and personal chef. We don't so remember to keep your goals realistic.

Still working at it

Welp I think I am doing alright...I am not superhuman.  I have continued to eat well and feel really good. Jeff (my boyfriend) and I have continued doing yoga and I do some Zumba. Sunday my daughter wanted to do Zumba with me and she couldn't hack it. But of course if I slacked and didn't keep up with the moves she was right behind me sitting on the couch talking junk to me.."MOM keep shaking your tooshie!", "MOM that's not how you do that!". Kids are so silly sometimes.
I still haven't weighed in. I really don't want to. What if I am disappointed? I don't want to get all frustrated with myself. Maybe in a week or two I will way and see where I am at. For the record I feel really good and I see a difference. I even had someone at work tell me I looked like I was loosing weight. To me that is its own compliment. Someone saying "Hey have you lost weight?" is the best thing ever. I find it to be really encouraging. No one wants to here "WOW you look so much different than you did in high school". We all know that means; "DAMN did you eat a small herd of cattle?!" And I can be real with myself I don't think I can make it to 123bls again (that was my high school weight). But like I said before once I am to 150bls we can talk about how I feel about more weight loss. At this point once I am 150 lbs I will be so much different than where I am at now. My goal is to be healthy not crazy skinny.



I see this and it says how I feel. No where does it say I wanna be skinny and wear super cute dresses, that just isn't what I want. Ya like every girl I wanna look cute, but I own most of those cute clothes already. I just stopped working on fitting into them. I want to maintain a healthy weight.
