135 Here I Come!!

So Vegas was a blast! I will post some pictures maybe tomorrow but I forgot the cord for it today. I think I might have even lost a pound while I was there. I mean I drank my face off and ate really well but we walked a lot! My sister had her pedometer on the whole weekend and she almost got up to 30,000 steps a day! My feet are really sore.
I’m also exhausted because we barely slept. Every night we were in bed after 3am and were always up by 8am. The food was amazing but I don’t think I over did it. We hit up a couple buffets but I always filled my plate with the salad bar first and then just went back for a couple extras. The night of my sisters birthday we went to this really nice Italian restaurant and ordered the family style buffet where they brought out so much delicious food! We didn’t have any snacks during the day or late night munchies either and only had 2 meals so I think I did pretty good. The drinks were endless but I tried to stick to vodka and water and not too many sugary drinks.
I got to meet the famous Alta!! It was so surreal to meet up and we had fun – a once in a lifetime kind of trip. Sarah I can’t wait to show you the pics!! We went to a club one night but it was so packed and not really our scene – our feet were all really sore too and we were ready for bed – it was a long weekend.
I didn’t end up winning in the poker tournament but it was fun. I won $250 in the airport waiting for my flight home so that was really exciting to come home with some money.
My hubby had to go out of town this morning so I will continue to miss him but I am SO READY to start getting into a healthy routine and smashing these pounds! I can’t wait to get back to the gym. I packed salad for lunch and brought a yogurt and apple for breakfast. I was 158 on the scale this morning but I know some of it is from salt for sure so I’m not worried about that number. The week before I left I had seen 160 at some point so 158 after vacation is good in my mind. I’m not ready to change my ticker yet though. I’ll see where I stand on Friday. After seeing all the hot bodies in Vegas I’ve decided I want that more than ever and my goal for my honeymoon in March is still my goal date. That’s about 20 pounds and I have 5 months to get there. It is totally doable if I stick to it and stay accountable and consistent. So my goal is to lose 1 pound a week. I’m going to do it the same way as before – lots of gym time, healthy eating – especially Monday to Friday with a couple indulgences on the weekend.
Ok so that’s it for now! I’m feeling great about my plans and goals and I won’t stop till I get there! One day at a time…
 
Hi Lisa! Sorry I haven't posted here in a while. Sounds like you had a fun trip and that is pretty cool that you got to meet Alta and spend some time with her. No worries about the weight creeping up. It happens to nearly everyone. I can tell you have the right attitude. Once you get back to a solid routine you will start seeing results again. I am constantly doing research. For example, a couple weeks ago I was researching what bodybuilders eat when they are doing their "cut." Nothing surprising, just very strict and methodical. And they stick to their plans!

Looking forward to seeing the pictures.

OMG!!! I am smiling SOO big right now! I am soooo excited to see the pics, I can't believe you and Alta got to party together. That is AMAZINGLY AWESOME!!! Gosh if I got to meet you two sometime I think I would CRY! I'm glad you had a fun trip, can't wait til I can make it out there!!! I am feeling excited for you to get back to the gym and healthy eating, I bet those Vegas girls were all the motivation in the world! I've been back to workouts consistently and have been doing really great with them. My diet STILL isn't perfect but I don't think it ever will be! Always a work in progress.

BTW I am going to Hawaii in January and maybe even Mexico in March!!! It's time to get serious about these bikini body's!!!
:smash:
 
Derrick - I haven't been around as much as I like either and haven't had a chance to update anyone's diaries so don't feel bad! Thanks for coming by!
Sarah - it was so surreal meeting Alta! I have a feeling we will get to meet too one day!! Maybe for a run or a trip or maybe just passing by one day! We both have the motivation for upcomming trips so let's use it to our advantage!!

Work has been so crazy lately and I don't see it slowing down anytime soon while this reorg is under way and it makes me really sad because I miss reading all the updates and posting more. I do know one day things will have to slow down so I'm just looking forward to that and going with the flow for now.
Here are a couple pics from Vegas - my camera totally sucks and hardly any turned out. Alta I hope you got some better ones than me!! My sisters kept telling me that me and Alta could be sisters because we look so much alike - what do you think?
I got on the treadmill last night and hope to make it to the gym tonight. My cat got sprayed by a skunk last night and I didn't have time this morning to do anything about it so I look forward to going home and taking care of that - NOT!! :willy_nilly:

Hey - I thought I would drop by to see you, since you visited me yesterday ~ thanks!

Looks like you had a great trip! Lots of fun! Sounds like you also did really well to keep your weigh in-check while you were away. I always struggle with that!

Anyhow - I'll visit again and hope you visit my thread too. Keep up the good work! :hurray:
