okay so, i've been lacking a lot
so, here’s today (i’ll be updating periodically through the day)
breakfast - oatmeal with raisens and cinnamon and a glass of soy milk
i find that i actually like soy milk over cow-juice. who knew?! i use to buy the chocolate soy milk or even the very vanilla soy. but, soy milk is actually pretty close to milk just a bit sweeter i think.
i’ve decided to commit to being a...
so i went to the doctor..
Here’s the run down. i’m still trying to live healthy. i drink loads of water and drink lots of tea. i’ve given up milk for soy. eat less meat and found protein substitutes.
well, i was having a lot of back pain..which this makes the 4th time in about 6-7 months that my back has been having issues. so, i go to the doctor and everything..had to do x-rays. not really thrilled by...

oh boy..
So this week was awful. work sucked..way more stressful than it needed to be..so i caved and bought potato chips and dip. not my best move..but this is the first time i’ve binged since i started my weight loss journey. so i guess i can’t really say i’ve failed..though because i was watching a video and wasn’t paying attention to my shoveling of the chips and dip down my...

erasablebond asked: What time to do you get up/go to sleep? If i wanted to adjust what/when i eat like your schedule, i can't because I can't not eat carbs after 12pm when I generally get up later than that. Know-what-I-mean? =D

well..its about that time..
its not quite pay day yet..but, i just had to share the news…

here’s what...

most awesome feeling in the world
is a pair of pants that were once tight but now every time you bend over you have to pull them back up over your ass.
eating healthy has finally become a habit for me. i haven’t had take out in forever now, the last soda i drank i ended up sharing with my mom (otherwise known as taking a sip and just handing it back to her) when i took her out for mother’s day. i don’t crave...

best day EVER!!!
i was at work today..and a co-worker came up to me and asked me one of the best questions ever:
“Are you losing weight?”
my response was practically tackling him with a hug..
so i doubt anything else that happens today can top that..unless of course someone else asks =)

cereal with skim milk for breakfast..
peanut butter banana smoothie for lunch and a wee bit of melon
had the rest of my salad from yesterday, lettuce, two eggs (hard boiled),avocado,cherry tomatoes,cucumber, shredded cheddar and yogurt ranch dressing for dinner.
factor in some green tea, lots of water and exercise and you’ve got yourself a healthy girl =)

I tried to eat blueberry oatmeal for breakfast..still don’t like blueberries..but i tried and that’s what counts.
i did work out today, abs, cardio, and a bit of strength. so far my foot has not given me any problems for a while..so i call that a plus.
this weight loss challenge so far is going pretty well..
enjoyed a rather tasty peanut butter banana smoothie
now to get some...

challenge accepted =)
so, Steve basically told me that its not true that men have higher metabolisms than woman. even though there is studies claiming otherwise..
so, he told me..that we’d see how hard this really was..
he says i’ll pay you 10 dollars for EVERY pound you lose. easy enough. the first 5lbs don’t count since its mostly water weight and you can generally lose that in a day. i have two...
