Update

Good Morning Everyone! Just posting to update everyone. I will be posting more, and putting more thoughts on this. I really want an actual website, but i'm not sure what I need to do to get there. 


I have lost 21 lbs since February 13. I feel so much better than I did at 246 lbs. I'm definitely not where I want to be. I am seeing a difference in my face, and A LITTLE in my stomach but definitely not as much as I would like. I just have to remember that it is going to take time. I am going on vacation in 74 days [10 weeks] and want to lose AT LEAST 20 more pounds by then. That would be 2 lbs a week, which is completely do able! I've been sick this week, in bed, so hopefully I will be back in the gym in the next couple days. I had a hard week of workouts planned but that was ruined by my dang immune system. I want to be able to go shopping on vacation and buy clothes that fit,and be able to go into any store and buy something. Hopefully by August I will be halfway through my weight loss journey. After I hit 200 lbs I have 40 lbs left. I know it sounds like it, but I'm not in a huge rush to lose my weight. I want to get toned as well, but I'm giving myself 2 years to lose this weight, then of course maintain a healthy lifestyle. I can't wait to see where I will be in two years from now!! I know I'm going to do it, I'm sure It could be done in a year, but i'm not rushing it, so long as I get to my goal weight eventually I will be happy! 


If anyone has any question please email me or comment! I WILL get back with you!:) samanthaevansxo@yahoo.com is my email address

Hello Readers! 


Life is good right now. I have started a countdown! I am going on a vacation in 100 days from today! I want to be down 33 lbs. What would put me at 199lbs. I dont want to see a 2 in my weight on my vacation!! I am currently right around 233 lbs. What I need to do is stop eating extra added sugar, and only drink water! A huge problem with me is not drinking enough water. I need to figure out what I can do to get that done! I need to stop going out to eat, and cook healthy at home! We will see how this works! I am going to do this! I want to be able to go shopping for new clothes while away and get a new bathing suit! I will keep you all updated!! :) Here's to 100 days!!

Good Morning To You!! I just wanted to let you all know, I jogged a 13minute 11second mile last night. That is the fastest i've ever done a mile in my entire life! I can't believe it! I've been working so hard to lose weight and not only that but to set goals and accomplish them! I am finding that I can do anything I set my mind too and more! I posted on facebook that I wanted to do a mile in under 16:30 because I did one in 15 minutes yesterday but wasn't sure what I could do. I was blown away when I saw the time:) 

Have a great day!!

Long Time No Post!

I got on this morning to write this blog and the whole layout has changed! I didn't even know how to post.

Anyways, I'm not going to lie, I had a couple of off days. Who Doesn't? I "thought" I hadn't gained any weight but I guess it took some time to catch up with me. I've totally skipped 234. I went from 235 to 233 and if I go back up, I always go to 235. I haven't even seen 234 on the scale. Yesterday I was 235.3 when I weighed in, in the morning. This morning I weighed in and I'm not 233.2. Im THREE pounds away from being in the 220's. That is going to be a great moment to see that. After I see that, I only have 4 pounds to go til I'm down 20lbs. I'm super excited!! I walked the bridge yesterday, I really do believe that working out, makes you lose weight. Not all of what you eat. I walked yesterday 1.7mi and I'm down a pound. I just need to push myself for an hour a day to keep these pounds coming off!!

p.s. I've been looking at pictures from 3 months ago, and I am disgusted at how heavy I looked!! I will do comparison pictures soon! 

Bad Bad Girl!

I've been a bad girl this week! I started a babysitting job this week and for that, I have to be up at 5:45am. [I've NEVER been up that early] I only babysit til 9:00am but when I come home, I crash, and I take a 3 hour nap and then I'm to tired to do anything. This week [3/26-3/30] I need to get my butt to the gym right after I babysit so I can get it over with for the day. I drive right by a bridge that's about three miles, so one morning I might do that! It's a very popular bridge to walk. I've never done it but I want to! So hopefully this week will be it! I also want to try and walk/jog the beach! I live one mile from the #1 beach in the USA. There's definitely no excuse why I can't do that! I think it's the i'm afraid to fail. When I'm on the treadmill, I know what I can do..but when I'm outside I don't know what I can accomplish so it scares me. So this week, I want to surpass my fears that walk the bridge and try to see how much I can accomplish at the beach! Do any of you have fears? I need to start thinking of new things to do because I'm getting bored of the treadmill/elliptical at the gym and i'm slacking! So, here's to a week of conquering your fears! 


Until Tomorrow..

P.S. I did not use grilled corn. I don't have a grill so I just used canned corn. I'm sure it's 10x better with grilled!
