Day 3 - Blogging is fun

Okay so my new motto is Goodbye Fat, Hello Fabulous!!!!! I like it!!

Here is my day: Breakfast was delicious!!!

B-Peanut Butter, strawberries, peaches and bananas on 100% whole wheat bread

S-Veggies

L-Chicken, veggies and brown rice

S-Almonds

D-2 Stuffed Shells (Not on the list I know. But I bought them before I started and I don't want to just throw them away)

S-Orange

Exercise: Playing the Wii and doing housework!!


Plan for tomorrow is to try to get to the gym. However there is a swing set in the backyard just asking to be put together and Josh estimates it will take at least 2 hours to put together (if we don't kill each other first) so I think that should count as some type of workout.

Oh and I am going to send this link to "Dave" so he can just look here to see how I am doing!!

No More Excuses


So I have decided to start a blog about my journey to a new and improved (thinner & healthier) me. I have been going to the gym twice a day for about two months now but I am not seeing the results I would like so I decided to start personal training. After meeting with the personal trainer that I will call "Dave" LOL. I realized that although I was eating more healthy options it still wasn't right. So today I went to the grocery store and got all the RIGHT options!!

So I will call today Day 1 and here are my starting stats:

Weight: 208.2
Fat% 44.5%Chest: 41.6
Waist: 41.0
Hips: 47.5
Thigh: 27.5
Bicep 14.0
Calf: 16.0

Goals : To lose about 50lbs but overall just be happy with myself. Workout at least 5 days a week (2 workouts a day). Be a better role model for my children (Emma 4, Ryan 18 months)

Today's Workout: 60 Min's on the treadmill and I'm sure I will be playing some Wii this afternoon.
I'll start logging food tomorrow.

That's it for now.
Oh and I'm sure I'll have lots of funny things to share along the way!!!
