Weigh in Wednesday!

So we stumble upon Wednesday once again......time to step on the evil Wii board....

I'm just going to come right out with it....my weight this morning is 186...blah....
Not the best time for me to weigh....ya know that typical stuff;) Fair food Sunday

Ya i kinda felt like this guy. Haha
That and its been to hot to run after Insanity:( We did walk one night and we were dripping with sweat at the end! My annoying friend that visits once a month also decided to stop by this week....blah....bring on the muchies...

I have been a little down the last few weeks about this weight loss. I seem to be stuck and going no where...I hate plateaus!
I am ready though to kick it in the butt and get this started again! I am determined not to stay stuck in this rut! Now i am not one that is usually into diet pills or shake replacements. Mainly because i believe that people use them for the wrong reasons. They use them instead of working out, not in addition too....I have decided though that i am going to try a few thing to help kick start my weight loss again. I am eating better and exercising so i believe they will help get the ball rolling:) We will see.....i guess if that doesn't work than i could always take this approach:)

Weigh in Wednesday!

It's Wednesday!
That means it is weigh in day!
I was quite interested to see what the scale says.
Like i reported last week, there was a small mishap with the scale and my actual weight.....
so because of that i reported that my new current weight was 185.
Well lets just say that i did weigh on Sunday just for the heck of it....i wanted to cry!
It had went up to 186.5! Why??? I was doing Insanity and drinking my water and, i thought, watching my calories. Well i can say that by Monday evening i realized that was not so. I was in fact doing Insanity and drinking water, and i still don't drink much pop,
but i was not watching my calories as closely as i thought i was.
So on Tuesday i decided it was time to crack down hard!! I brought back out "My Fitness Pal" calorie tracker and i upped the water intake majorly!
So i am happy to report that Weigh in Wednesday didn't make me cry! HA!
My weight as of today is 183!
3.5 Pounds! Finally getting somewhere!

On to Insanity.....
You would think that since this is my second round of Insanity,
i would not be so sore....WRONG!
These workouts have kicked my butt just as bad as they did the first round!
Brooke and I have been really pushing each other though. Its so nice to have someone to do this with every time. It is hard to do Insanity by yourself.
Its too easy to stop and take too many breaks.
Its so much better to push and push and push, until you just cant move!
I am very glad to be doing Insanity again. I really did miss it. I sleep so much better and have so much more self confidence in knowing that i am bettering myself:)

O and to those of you that think Insanity is easy, i just have one thing to say.....
Bring it!
Do it and prove to me you can not only do it, but finish all 60 days!
Then tell me how easy it is;)
I never understood people that feel the need to put others down, when they are trying their hardest to make themselves better. You should encourage them not put them down.
No matter what i will not be detoured, you can not say or do anything that would throw me from the path that i am running down!

Weigh in Wednesdays!! (Amended )

So today is Wednesday...this week has went fast. I apologise for the lateness of weigh in Wednesdays. I have been at the dentist all morning and afternoon. I am actually still here waiting on some things. I thought I would post while I had a minute :)

So I discovered something interesting about my Wii board. It has these little extenders that go on the feet of it. Why is this important you ask? Well I discovered on Monday that my true weight might just be a little off.......I weighed Brooke in on the Wii, to help her keep track. When the weight came up she said that she knows it was not correct. I could not think of a reason. Then I thought about those extenders. I put them on and had her weigh again. This time it was dead on to what she had said
This got me thinking....when Ryan came home from the chiropractor I had him weigh....seeing how he had just been weighed there.....he was dead on the weight as well. So....I weighed in yesterday. I was indeed heavier than I thought. Not by alot, but by some. So it looks like its about a 15# difference with or with out those extenders.

Now I don't want to fool my self and say that I am lighter than I am. I want to be real about it. So I weighed in this morning. On the scale with the extenders it said that I am 185. I am alright with this because this means that I actually weighed closer to 215 when I started working out...yikes!! I still know that I have lost and the inches prove this:)

So my new goal is again 170 by the time school starts:)

On to insanity! It has been a crazy sore week.....between Insanity and running and biking (ouch) I am one sore momma. I have realized that bike seats are very evil things.

I told Ryan this time around everyone around me is sore with me. Lol. Its very nice to see people you love deciding to better themselves. Chellsie is going to join the Insaneness tonight:) We just keep adding more and more. I love it!!

Well its about time to go back in for the rest of my dentist visit ......until next time my blogger buddies :)

Insanity...take two!!

So I'm back....I know, I know, I have not been good about updating. Last week was crazy busy and I didn't get a chance to even weigh in. I did weigh in this morning though, in preparation for my second round of Insanity.....which starts today!! I'm ready! Two weeks off was nice but I have not been sleeping as well and I don't feel as full of energy. Anyway, my weight as of today is......168 1/2 and 33% body fat! Woo hoo! My new goal is 160 by the end of the month. This is just craziness to me.......that is 30 1/2 albs lost since starting insanity on May 2nd. So crazy!

So today is Fit Test day! I am a little. sore from all the swimming and running yesterday, so this should be interesting....Haha.......I asked Ryan yesterday if he was ready for this....he said "I guess..."...lol
Brooke Wilson will be doing it this time around. She is stoked! :D

I am also going to be running and riding bike with my sister in law Tiffany and possibly Chellsie when she can:) Tiff and I are preparing to run a 5 k later this summer. I am so excited to check this accomplishment off my list!


Well I'm off to clean and do laundry:)
Get out there and sweat my friends:)
