Let's Get it Started

Done with Day 2! Got that walking in.. and was only about 100 above my calories!  Plexus for the win so far.. but it is still just day 2.  I am a huge picture taker.. so here is another picture!  You will see one of these a month (for all those readers out there!)  Tomorrow morning is breakfast morning.  I know that whatever I do.. I can't not enjoy the things that I like to eat. MODERATION is what I am going for!  I will do this!

Day 1

I got up this morning and did measurements.  I also started my first day of Plexus Slim.  I had grand ideas that I was going to walk tonight.. and the fact that I got up at 4 this morning after having fallen asleep on the couch, that was not going to happen.

I am okay with that!  I walked a ton around school getting ready for testing that starts tomorrow.  It is also on my calendar for tomorrow.

So, here is where I start: 217.8 pounds. Not my heaviest.. but not my lightest

March 28th Measurements:

Neck- 12 inches

Bust- 45 inches

Waist- 39 inches

Hips- 47 inches

Right Calf- 15 inches

Left Calf- 15 inches

Right Thigh- 24 1/2 inches

Left Thigh- 24 inches

Left bicep- 13 1/2 inches

Right bicep- 13

The next time I will take measurements is at the end of April.  I plan to take this same picture and weigh every Monday.  Today.. as it is day 1.. I have only gone 20 over my calories (using Lose it app) But you know.. day one is always the easiest.. and tomorrow starts testing!

Pull me back on the Bandwagon!

I have been talking about.. oh.. I love where I am.. oh I am happy with how I look.  Right now I am NOT happy with how I feel or how I look!

Let's be real.. my weight is causing me to not to sleep well.  I am snoring more which makes sleeping tough for not only me.. but my husband. I am eating a ton because I am at a point that I feel like I can't get full. 

I have been talking about the other times that I lost lots of weight.  I did weight watchers.. and LOVED it. It was perfect for me at the time.  It helped me really understand how much I can eat.  THEN.. I married a chef.  He is an amazing chef and so I started to eat more.. how can you say no to your husband?  About 3 years ago, my husband was between jobs and I knew that I was going to give up my gym membership.  I called the gym and told them my situation... and you know what they did.. they said you know what you have been a great customer, we will give you 3 months free.  That got my butt in gear and made me realize that the gym would be a great way for me to release some stress. Guys, I lost 30 pounds.. and I looked GOOD!

Here I am again talking about losing weight.  I know that I am spending too much time sitting on my couch.  I am spending too much time trying to get my life together at school.  I am spending too much time on social media.  

I usually set my goals monthly.. BUT.. this Monday is the PERFECT time for me to get my rear in gear.  I am not going to feel awkward or anxious at making time for the gym.  I am not going to keep making excuses either! 

This is my screen saver on my phone.
