Restarting Again

March 31st 2011 16:11
So here it is I am having to restart again I feel so far off everything it is not funny. I am recommitting today to my goals including this weight loss. I am now my heaviest ever at 309.2 lbs. I feel disgusting for even have to write that number.

I bought a Zumba video game this morning, did it and it kicked my butt and it was so much fun. I really enjoyed it. I will report back in a few days when I have worked out a few more times. I am jumping in with both feet. I have cut out sodas, I am cutting down on how much I eat and trying to make smarter choices about which foods I eat. It is difficult but I know it can be done.

I am also doing a morning Zumba session, a stretching/ yoga session at lunch, then a running session in the afternoon followed by Biggest Loser in the evening and finally another short stretching/yoga session before bed. I am tired of saying I don't have time, from now on I am putting me first and making time for working out.

Once summer is in full swing down here, I am going to add swimming in the morning and evening with my daughter and switch my Zumba and running times. You and I will see a fitter Crystal in the very new future.

I will keep you updated and as always help keep me motivated and keep me in line.

RESULTS

I am back up again this time nearly 4 lbs, but I lost 3.75 inches this week, so I am okay with the weight gain. Well I am not okay with the weight gain but I am going to accept it as I have lost inches and that is just as important. No Pictures this week, I am going to only add pictures during the first week of the month, so we can actually see the difference.

Working out with The Hubby

February 19th 2011 04:46
Yesterday I got the Biggest Loser Challenge for Wii. I thought yea this will be a way to get me back into my running program. Keep in mind I have been jogging three times a week for 35 minutes in each time. IT KICKED MY BUTT. Seriously it had seemingly five or six levels of fitness during the fitness test, I only passed three and had to stop.

So tonight I asked my husband to try it out. I assume so that he could show me up he made it as far as i did. So then we did the challenge together, it kicked our butts. So we are tired (and I won) and we are tired. It was a lot of fun seeing him work as hard as me at something. It was a whole new togetherness. Kind of like when our daughter had colic and we took turns holding her and loving her.

Moral of the Story: If you are in a tubby tandem work out together, sharing a goal and working towards it will only bring you closer. Plus you are losing weight and becoming healthier, which means their will be less of each other to love but you will be able to love each other for more years.

Oh by the way, did I say I won oh and just a reminder the Biggest Loser Challenge kicked our butts.

The Skinny on Hydration

January 23rd 2011 05:02
Hydration and the amount of water you drink plays a major role in losing weight. Study after study comes back with the same results increase water intake, increase weight loss. Pick up any diet pill at the store, read the back most of them say drink a full glass of water with each serving. You have to wonder is it the water or is it the pill... I think it is probably mostly the water.

Published in the Journal of the American Dietetic Association, a study by Dr. Brenda Davy, showed that people who drank water before meals ate on average 75 less calories per meal than those who ate without drink water before. 75 calories may not sound like much but if we multiply that by 3 meals a day, you get 225 calories a day. By removing that 225 calories from your diet a day, it can turn into nearly 2 lbs of weight loss a month or in an entire year 23.5 lbs of weight loss. All this just by adding water. The study also documented that being just 1% dehydrated can slow down metabolism

Challenge One: Evaluate and Examine

December 31st 2010 05:42
The first challenge is an important but rather easy challenge. I am going to record and evaluate my current lifestyle. I am going to record the amount and type of exercise I do, the amount and type of food I eat including the time, the amount of sleep I am getting and the amount of water I am drinking.

I understand that examining and writing down these items will most likely change my behavior some toward them. I will probably exercise a little more, eat a little less and drink a little more water. None of these things are bad, and will probably kick off my weight loss
