Motivation

So my normal routine when I wake up is to walk into the bathroom and weigh myself. Well I went in and did that this morning, and in one week, I have lost 2lbs! I haven't seen 244 on the scale in awhile! Even though I was just 2lbs away..I haven't seen it! I was so excited when I saw it! I don't think its 100% accurate, but I know that its 2lbs down from what it said a week ago! LOL. For some reason I cant get the picture to rotate. But there is it..Anyways..about motivation!..I saw this on the scale this morning and was really happy. I don't think people realize how real it becomes until you see the numbers on the scale..whether its smaller or larger than they want. My realization came when I stepped on the scale and I was 3.2lbs away from being 250lbs. I absolutely refuse to see 250lbs on the scale. It is completely uncalled for! My next "mini mini" goal, is to hit the 30's! Then to lose 10lbs by October 20. We shall see!!! 




Look at this, I looked up how much 100lbs of fat looked like..
This is completely disgusting to think that I HAVE THIS IN MY BODY!! To imagine having to lose all this seems almost impossible but I'm going to take it one day at a time! I dont even want to think of it as "omg I have to lose 100lbs" I need to think of it as, "Im going to be healthy, happy, and beautiful" That's the only way I'm going to get through this, and making mini goals!! 

Ive got alot more on my mind that I will write tomorrow! 
Good night!

SELF Magazine

Here are some things I saw that I would like to share..These are ALL from Self Magazine, not me! 


10 fun, easy ways we sneak in exercise!


1. Walk to your destination if it takes fewer than 20 min to get there!
2. Do biceps curls with any heavy bags you haul to and from work. They're as unwiedly as kettlebells, so balancing them forces more muscles to fire! [I actually do this!]
3. Dance with your kids! [I dont have kids, but know alot of people that do! Good Idea!]
4. Clench your butt muscles while climbing the stairs. 
5. See if you can hold plank pose for three consecutive minutes every day. 
6. Eke out crunches during television commercials. 
7. Bike to meet pals on weekends.
8. Wear a watch that monitors calories burned.
9. Perform leg lifts and bridges while you talk on the phone. 
10. Set your clock 30 min ahead so you have time to run before work. 


There are some things to think about. There's tons more I will be posting!! Enjoy

I am going to share 26 songs that I have picked out that I think are good to workout with. [Some people suggested them] I had a hard time. When I'm on the computer and I hear the music [mostly rap] I think, WOW This would be great to workout too! Then I get to the gym, and its horrible!
