Sprint to the Finish - Week 9

I'm just full of excuses and weight gain this week, so I won't even bother *sigh*

Sprint to the Finish - Week 8

Last week:

Nurtitional:
I will drink 80+oz of water each day. No problem in this heat!
I will eat breakfast everyday *before* 10am. I've discovered my problem here.... with my lovely hubby laid off and getting up with the kids every morning to let me sleep in, I am waking up too late to feel awake enough to eat. This then leads to me not being able to fall asleep until midnight or later, meaning I sleep in the next day. I will be working on this.
Have a fruit smoothie at least once for lunch. Forgot all about it
Have a salad for one meal at least 4 times this week. Made it to 3 again. Really working for 4 this week, starting with salad planned for supper tonight!


Physical:
I will walk at least 7 miles this week. only 5.46m :(
I will do 2 days of my walk/run program. I got one in, but then my route was taken over by the local fair lol It's down now, so provided the humidity doesn't kill me, I'll get my 2 in this week
Up doing weights to at least twice this week. I didn't do 2 different sessions, but I did do an hour of weights and stretches with Brianna and my niece this week, so feel justified in counting it (since my normal weights routine is only about 20 minutes)
Go to bed before 11pm every night. See eating breakfast.

I seem to have hit a wall of sorts. For the last 3-4 weeks I've been floating between 169 and 172. It's really peeving me off! I have a mini-goal for tomorrow (Olivia's birthday) that looked as easy as pie to hit a month ago yet now I'm more than 4lbs from it. I'm going to have to try to jump start the losing again. I've still got 12lbs before I'm even vaguely happy with my weight so I certainly can't stop here!!!

Sprint to the Finish - Week 6

I missed out last week because of our family crisis. It's pretty well over now and I need to jump back on the band wagon! Since my last STTF weigh in I've only gained .6lbs. But I actually dropped to 168.8lbs in my missing time and and now up to 170.8 meaning a gain of 2lbs :( Time to kick butt!

Nurtitional:
I will drink 80+oz of water each day.
I will eat breakfast everyday *before* 10am.
Have a fruit smoothie at least once for lunch.
Have a salad for one meal at least 4 times this week. Garden fresh lettuce should make this easy!

I Suck

Not only did I post a gain on Monday (which we're just not talking about), but I've also lost track of my 30 day challenge (which I really need to catch up on!), and I've blown my diet since. I DID however, post a cool new ticker on my blog. My goal is to walk/run 100 miles by Aug 1st. And of course my still going goal is 25lbs by Olivia's birthday on July 19th. Go Me! I gotta get off this train wreck though....

No Goal

So I blew goal away by gaining 2lbs this weekend. I suck :( Oh well, back on the bandwagon! I'm actually gonna do my workouts this week and eat better!

Weigh In

Up .8lbs. I'm actually surprised it's not higher. Current weight: 184.6lbs. 13 days to lose 4.6lbs. I know I can do it if I could just kick this cold!

Gain

Only .6lbs though. I knew there'd be a gain, but I actually thought it would be worse! .6lbs aint bad to get off and then some this week!

Now, to figure out the next mini goal....

Yup, I Suck

Today's weigh in put me at 189.4. That means I've got 4.4lbs to drop before my birthday next Friday. That also means I need to get off my ass! I wish I had a DVD player downstairs so I could try out my videos. But that'll have to wait for income tax (maybe this week!).

And the Bad Continued til Today....

Today I posted a gain :( Back up to 191.4lbs *cry* I'm now very excited for this foot of snow we're supposed to get just so I can get a free workout in! I did do a 1 hour trek to Walmart and back. Speed was necessary as it was freaking cold!
