V and I took the Strong Class last night that was required for this weeks homework.... ouch is all i have to say! I am not really as sore as i was expecting to be, it must be all the water helping to mend my muscles, but damn, it hurt while we were doing it. I was giggling to myself cuz there were 2 macho guys in the class with us, thinking they might show all us girls how its done.... YA RIGHT! there faces were priceless... they were hurtin units!!! FYI- if you ever take this class, go easy on the weights the first time, NO MATTER how strong you think you might be! pumpin iron on the weight room floor has nothing on this class!
Anywho, I'm off to get ready for another fun filled, crazy bust day at PMTSS!
Talk to you tonight!

Well, Well, Well~
Today i woke up at my normal time and for some reason my body just wanted to stay in bed all day. I woke up completely exhausted like i had slept but 10 minutes.... so weird. I was kinda pissed, today was a busy day i didn't have time for a super sleepy morning, especially since i cut coffee out of my daily routine, I'm doing the biggest loser caffeine free! Water and hot herbal tea is all i will be drinking.... at least for now! On to today's menu!
Breakfast:
1 cup oatmeal
Mid-morning snack:
1 apple
Lunch:
Italian wedding soup (healthy choice- yuck! this was probably the most disgusting thing i have ever put in my mouth..... )
celery with hummus
mid-afternoon snack:

Dinner:
2 1/2 Chicken apple sausages ( lacking a little protein)
scrambled eggs w/ cheese, green pepper, and mushroom
Water intake:
120 oz
workout:

I feel ok today, still a little tired, I think i ave too much on my plate this week and I'm a little overwhelmed, but next week is new, and fresh and not as hectic!
Thanks all for your support!

Day 2
Hey Hey!
So today is officially day 2 of the BIGGEST LOSER! I am surprisingly not to sore after yesterdays intense workout with Cheryl our trainer; apparently i have underestimated my body!
Today I felt great, i was energized all throughout the day, and wasn't hungry once! Yeah!
So here is what my menu looked like today:
Breakfast:
1 cup blueberry oatmeal
green tea with an immunity boost pack
Mid-Morning Snack:
handful of raw almonds
Lunch:
Tuna with mayo, celery, pickles on lettuce leaves
1 apple
Mid-Afternoon Snack:
handful or two of raw almonds
Dinner:
Artichoke and cheese something or other stuffed chicken breast ( I got these at walmart, they are sam's choice brand 200 calories, 4 grams of fat, 33 grams of protein!)
Water Intake:
144 oz
Workout:
1 1/2 hrs intense walking, biking, and elliptical= 1025 calories burned!
I just want you all to know that I feel awesome, I was watching the biggest loser tonight at the gym while i was working out... and if that is not motivation i don't know what is!
My new life motto: You earned it! take that how ever you like, for it it has multiple meaning, i earned the fat i have on my body and the weight i am today because of the choices i have made in the past. And for the future i will earn the success because i put forth the effort. They said tonight on the biggest loser, "its not enough to want it, you have to earn it!" I am going to take that quote and live it daily to make myself succeed.
V has a sign in her bedroom that says "nothing tastes as good as thin feels" Well damn it, i have no idea what thin feel like, but i want to.... so I'm after it!
Ta-ta for now!

Sooooo, there is my day in review! What do you think? Not that bad eh?
Our trainer has asked that we analyze what our one downfall is always... mine: sweets! and over eating, and snacking among MANY others. BUT, she said only chose ONE of those to work on, so I chose sweets! I will be trying my hardest to stay away from sweets unless it is whole natural fruit.
She also said we are supposed to pick one feature about our body that we enjoy either daily or weekly.... ummm nothing! but if i MUST chose one thing I enjoy, I would have to say my..... feet? I think they're cute. Ill try and pick another thing out tomorrow. She said it is all out loving what you have, love your curves, you earned them, love your family, your health, and where you are in your life right now.
All god advice I will take and apply to my life. I am happy about where i am in my life, I am just about to start my career, I have a wonderful supportive family and I am in good health! What else do i need? Oh yeah, A MAN! Keep your eyes peeled girls! I'm a little high maintenance, but i usually look pretty good ( Julie will get a kick out of that comment.... "Your hair looks cute today" ... me- "I know") oops!
Alright friends, I put all my personal business out on the line.... I hope you can take something from what i post, or at least get a good laugh at my fat ass! LOL! j/k.
I'll see ya tomorrow!

Pissed Off....
So as many of you know I have a very major Runway Show coming up at school on September 25th. I am doing a very fun theme for my models and am also one of 4 people planning the entire show... a little stressful right? I am hand making my outfits for my models with the help of one of my friends and former classmates. But **** dude, she has no consideration for anyone elses time! Shit! I have been sitting here for 2 1/2 hours waiting for her to get here because she has the material for the project... so i cant get started without her. I am about ready to SCREAM!
ok.... my soap box is back in the closet.
Thats pretty much how my day is going.... blah and pissy.
TTYL,

Lazy Life
Soooo.... Yeah, it's been a while.... Oops! But I'm back!!!
Anyways, I fell like I have been the laziest person on earth lately but I have been pretty busy.... Doing what? I can't really remember, but I've been darn busy!
So if you don't already know my companion V and I are starting the BIGGEST LOSER at the gym on the 18th. And we are pretty darn excited! Hopefully this will be the jumpstart we both need to kickstart out weight loss goals. On day one we will be posting our measurements and beginning weight on our blogs and we will begin journaling everything that goes in our mouth on here.... I hope you are all ready to hold us accountable! We will both be blogging daily to keep everything out in the open! Yikes! Oh well, you are our friends and family, it's time to get really serious!
I had a dream... Or nightmare I should say last night that I weighed 402 lbs.... It was awful... Then this morning when I woke up my daily horoscope was waiting for me on my phone.... It read: at long last you're able to move forward with a fitness plan. You're determined to look your best. Crazy huh! V and I are both Aries, so I forwarded it to her this morning! It's like a sign that this is the time and place to get out shit together! I'm ready that's for sure!!! I'm tired of being fat and looked beyond because some skinny broad is standing next to me. It's over, we set a goal and this time were gonna run the race and finish it!
Well I'm off to finish my laundry then I'm headed to the gym! Talk to you soon!
