Sorry Everyone.. I fell off of the band wagon for a few days.. i didn't blow my diet or anything I just didn't feel like posting. My grandma was sent to the hospital yesterday morning but she is out and doing well now. Some kind of issues with her legs.
Anyways I have a countdown ticker on my phone and it is down to 93 days.. 3 months... I have 3 months to lose 15 lbs. TIME TO GET SERIOUS!!!! I haven't been working out at all which is so bad but at least I have still been counting calories and eating well for maintenance. Tonight I dragged myself to Zumba and burnt 850 calories and it got me motivated again. Ben bought me the Zumba game for Wii for my birthday. I am waiting for it in the mail! I am hoping it will motivate me to get some more workouts in at home
I weighed 160 this morning which made me feel good but I won't count any loss until my weigh in on Tuesday. Hopefully I can be good this weekend!

I have just totally lost it.. The motivation that is.. I have not been trying at all now for like 3 weeks.. I dont know what happened.. I was doing so well then I just went into lazy zone and can't seem to snap out! I need to get cracking again. If I realistically want to reach my goals, I have to start now! It's a new week and usually on Mondays I am ready to start fresh but today I just feel like a slug! Whats wrong ?!

You can definitely snap out of it! Make bigger goals. Something that will motivate you no matter what. Or replace working out's outcome of weight loss with something else. Something that can be accomplished just by doing it and finishing it.
Whatever you do..SNAP OUT OF IT!! COME BACK!!! There are always going to be curve balls in life, and you have to think of exercise as your THERAPY. Exercise is the therapist here. The only way to declutter the mind and the spirit is to rid the body of the crapload that we are carrying on our shoulders. Figuratively speaking of course! You can do it!!

Starting fresh on Tuesday works too!! Get some groceries and plan out your meals and fit in the gym - you will feel so much better if you do!! One day at a time remember!! I agree with Alta - you can do it!!!

Yes, these two lovely ladies are offering great advice! I've recently been where you are Christen. I know it really sucks, but we just gotta get out there and do it. Let's get this part of life done with and move on...

OK!! So.. I have been re-evaluating my goals and obstacles..I have found some motivation again and am ready to get back.. I hate that I took a hiatus but at least I didn't gain any weight back! I have still been ok on my food but just haven't been exercising often. I am one of those all or nothing type people and I need to overcome that because anything is better than nothing like I have been doing!
Feb 2.. a new month.. if its not time to start now I dont know when its going to be! I have a solid 3 months to reach my goals. If I work hard, I can get there. I just have to remind myself how good I feel after I exercise. I don't know why I forget so easily!! Today after school I am going to go to the grocery store and stock up then go to the gym for some cardio and a belly dancing class..Tomorrow is Zumba so it will be a fun few days of exercise Hopefully it will help motivate me to carry through the weekend which is where I always lose it!
I told my boyfriend that I didn't want to do ANYTHING this weekend. I don't want to go anywhere, see anyone. I want to clean the house, organize the garage and be productive. We are going to get things DONE.. I am making a list

That's the Attitude!!! !!! It is so easy to forget how great it feels to workout!!
It takes 21 days to make a habit! You have to remind yourself of that!! I'm glad that you are using the weekend to catch up on life! It can easily get overwhelming!
And I'm definitely glad that you are re evaluating your goals!! I'm telling you, every day I get better and better, about my time usage, about my thoughts, about my goals, about ME!! This morning even, I woke up 30 mins before I usually do and started meditating at 6:45 am! Read a page of a good book, and used my 25 before bootcamp to just "BE".
Life can be overwhelming! We need quiet time to just listen. Listen to our thoughts, our breathing, our body, our goals, our LIFE!!! I was so awakened by the experience of living life before the day started that I have vowed to myself to make it a ritual. I'm sure it's going to be hard to get up even that much earlier, BUT the rewards of doing a small task daily will outweigh the effort that it takes right now, throughout time! Think about, let's say I wake up 30 minutes earlier everyday to close my eyes, sit on the floor, think about my thoughts, dream, and just breath and be right... that means that in a month I will have given my mind the space to think of nothing and everything 144 hours in ONE YEAR!!! And if I increment that time to 1 hour, that would be 288 hours dedicated to your mind and figuring things out!!!! EVERYDAY!!!
Can you imagine!? A SLIGHT EDGE difference, can make an enormous shift in our life! The same with working out. If you do just 30 mins daily, in one year you will have done 144 hours of working out!!! Can you imagine how much better you will feel after COMMITTING TO YOURSELF that you are important enough to give yourself 30 mins a day! There are 24 hours in a day, and we CAN dedicate 30 mins!
I just finished reading a book called The Slight Edge. I've actually read it several times. Each time there has been a gap of 6 months to a year that I read it right. Each time I am different, each time I have advanced some, took some steps back, gone forward again,...but I always see, that the one thing in life that HOLDS ME BACK is daily discipline.
I sometimes feel like it's all or nothing with me too. Do it all, or do none. The reality is that small changes MATTER!!! Think about a golf player, how much does that 2 centimeters to the left or to the right impact the swing and the accuracy of the ball?!? Think about you with your volleyball, how much does hitting the ball 2 inches to the left versus 2 inches to the right really matter in whether or not you will make it to your target hit?? ...It's VERY important!! That small shift can make it great or make it less great or even completely miss!
...All I'm saying, is that the one thing that we have to realize is that SMALL SHIFTS IN BEHAVIOR MAKE HUGE SHIFTS IN OUR LIFE!!! It's time we allowed ourselves to reap the rewards of what the power of DICIPLINED CONSISTENCY on the small shift scale can really do for us!!!
5 years saving every nickel you see on the floor, and how many nickels do you think you would have at the end? Have you ever heard of people saying, "If I would have saved every nickel and penny I saw laying around! or If I would have been given a nickel every time I said that or heard that!"
Well.... Yes, ....what if, right?
And, what if you allow yourself to be better than you ever imagined because you appreciated what the power of a small daily shift can do for you?
Time will go on regardless... You can apply it to anything in life really...
-What will happen if you crack your nuckels every day over the period of 5 years?
-What will happen if you read 1 page of a good book that motivates you over the period of 5 years?
-What will happen if you take a 10 min walk with the dogs every day over the period of 5 years?
-What will happen if you go out one less time a month and put away to save those $25 dollars every month over the period of 5 years instead?
-What will happen if you tell yourself that you love yourself daily over the period of 5 years?
....If we think about it like this, it's really those small things that can either make or break our happiness! Tony Robbins yesterday was saying to me in my coaching online from his website, that "We all have a blueprint to success in our mind. It's instilled since childhood. The formula to unhappiness is when what we have is not aligning with our premade blueprint for what our lives in all areas "should be". Then he said, If we could all stop SHOULDING ON OURSELVES, AND SHOULDING ON OTHERS, then we would be all right! hahaha! I laughed..
But he's very right!! If something is not aligning to where we want it to be, all it takes is a small daily shift towards where you want to go. The immediate action taken towards those goals, alleviates some of the discomfort of not completely being aligned with them at the moment. That's why ACTION is so important! Action is like the asprin, that makes us feel so much better once taken! While taking it at first, the pain is still there,..but give it a little bit of time,...and the RELIEF settles in!!!!!
WE can do this!!!
The daily slight EDGE!!! and BAM!!! WHO WILL YOU BE IN 5 YEARS~!?!?! THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!!!! CATCH ME IF YOU CAN!!! !!!

Good work getting that positivity back! Three months is plenty of time to reach your goal if you stick with it so just keep pushing one day at a time. If you don't get a workout in don't dwell on it but make sure your eating is top notch and the scale will still go down! You don't have far to go to get to your goal and we know you can do it!!
Have fun at your workouts the next couple days - that and a shop to the grocery store and your good to go!! Keep it up Christen!!

HEllloooo everyone! I am back and I am starting a new goal. Yesterday I realized was 100 days exactly until my trip to the beach! This trip is important for a few reasons..
1. I LOVE the beach
2. I want to look GOOD in my bikini!
3. My boyfriend and I are celebrating 6 years together
4. My boyfriend has hinted at an engagement and its very likely it will take place that week
5. It will be just us (hopefully--we usually take 2 friends to split costs) and will be good for ROMANCE and I want to be super confident
ok so.. I have 100 days to lose 20 lbs.. 20 is my goal but I would be very happy with 15. I am not sure how my body will do with this. The smallest I have been since high school is 148. I felt that I looked good but needed a lot of toning. So really as long as I look the way i want to look I dont care what the scale says but I am thinking it will be around 140-145 lbs.
Is this possible in 100 days? I have calculated that I will have to average a loss of .70 a week which isn't bad but the last 10 lbs are tough when losing weight so everyone wish me luck and pray that I am persistent and can accomplish this time! I always seem to give up when it gets hard but this time I really want this.
My boyfriend who is probably the laziest person I know, used to not ever workout or do anything for that matter. He is 6'3 and weighed 165 lbs.. You could see his bones! He eats whatever he wants and doesn't have to worry about it... JEALOUS.. but he is underweight for his size..anyways.. he has been trying to gain weight FOREVER and finally a few months ago started going to the gym on his lunch break with a buddy to lift weights. Last night I was looking at him and for the first time started to really notice the changes in his body. He is really starting to fill out and I love it! He is so much more confident always walking around the house flexing his arms at me and laughing He hopped on the scale and it says 180! I was so proud of him! He has been working hard and it has paid off for him.
He is also going to keep working hard until we go to the beach so I need to look good too and not like a blob next to my new cut man!! It is fun to have him working hard too and sharing a goal. Even though we aren't working out together we are still working towards the same goal and now that I see it working for him I am feeling better about sticking with it myself

DAY 100 (counting in reverse)
Ate well.. stayed within my 1500 calorie range
Started the INSANITY program and did the fit test. It was only about 7 or 8 exercises that you do for one minute each to see how many you can do in a minute. You just go as fast as you can for a minute while maintaining form and track them. I will do this test every 2 weeks for 60 days to track my progress. It was a 20 minute workout.
After I did that, I rested for about 45 minutes and ate some veggies then I headed off for an hour of ZUMBA. I love Zumba. It makes working out fun and I wish that I could go to classes more often! Ben did buy me the Zumba game for Wii and it's fun and similar but not as exciting as being in a class full of people! It's still a good workout though
Anyways so todays results:
322 Burned Insanity
840 Burned Zumba
1162 CALORIES BURNED

Really proud of you!!! 
I love the new countdown!
You can do it!!! If you continue shocking your eating and working out like crazy, YOU KNOW YOU CAN DO IT!!! You've seen the infomercials on the insanity workouts, and the p90x ones! 90 days, bitch!!! 90 days some people TRANSFROM their lives!!!
Yesterday, while I was doing p90x, I really noticed that before, I wouldn't CRUNCH my abs while doing some of those moves, and I wouldn't tighten my ass before while jumping, and that I wouldn't make my arms into a tense stronghold while doing the actions.
...You know when they say BRING IT!!!...well, I finally knew what that REALLY MEANT!!! LOL!!!!
...that's how those people TRANSFORM in 90 days. Every single move done is at MAXIMUM effort of exertion in that moment!!
I'm starting to get really excited about the fact that IT CAN BE DONE!!!! I can imagine!!!!
...I'm giving it PASSION in each moment! YOU CAN DO THE SAME!!! WORK!!!!
!!!
...did I tell you how much I love the countdown...?!!
....I've realized that for me, the countdown came in my mind the minute I put up a calendar on the wall and get to write in each little box the exercise I did everyday. I've never had calendar up in my place and the minute I put it up, I thought...."How AMAZING would that be to look at the end of the year, and flip through the ENTIRE thing and see ALL THE BOXES written in!?!? OMG!!! That'd be the BIGGEST ACCOMPLISHMENT OF MY LIFE!!!! WORKING FOR SOMETHING I WANT EVERYDAY!!!! ...so that's my goal.

Hey Christen! I can only imagine how excited you are for your trip because I'm going through the same thing right now!! That will be so cool if you get a ring! I can't wait to hear about it!
How'd you make out over the weekend? No worries if it wasn't the greatest - none of ours were! You just got to keep your goal in the front of your mind and start fresh whenever you need to! Never look back and just keep pushing forward!! Hope to hear from you soon!

Day 95 (Counting Backwards)
Still doing ok here! I have been watching my food and am doing well on that note.. I have found that I am so busy now that school has really kicked in that I barely have time to get my workouts in or that I am super tired and its a struggle when I do..
I was not able to stick with Insanity AND my regular workouts so I am just hitting the classes at the gym and on the days that I do have time I will do both This week I have two tests at school so I am struggling to find time to workout as much as I want.
Yesterday I went with my new workout bud and rode the stationary bike on level 10 for about 25 minutes then did an hour of pilates. I had never done pilates and had NO idea how weak my core and hips were.. These old women in there were holding there legs up, flexible, strong and I was shaking and crooked looking with bad posture! Something I really need to work on!
Today I did not get a workout in I have been cramming for a test tomorrow but I might go down stairs and do a quick zumba dvd before bed biggest loser is motivating me!
Tomorrow I will try to squeeze in a quick workout too because I also have a test on Thursday After that though theres nothing holding me back! As long as I get SOME exercise in I will be happy with myself!
Down 1 lbs so far to 160 and hoping to break into the 150's by next weeks weigh in.. hopefully i don't go overboard for v-day!

Hey Christen! I can only imagine how excited you are for your trip because I'm going through the same thing right now!! That will be so cool if you get a ring! I can't wait to hear about it!
How'd you make out over the weekend? No worries if it wasn't the greatest - none of ours were! You just got to keep your goal in the front of your mind and start fresh whenever you need to! Never look back and just keep pushing forward!! Hope to hear from you soon!
I am SUPER excited!! I loooooove vacation and am in need of one soo badly
I wish it was a cruise like usual so I have no cell phone.. I might cut it off and just tell everyone not to bother me! 95 days.. 15 lbs to go..gonna be tough! The last 10 lbs are sooo hard and I haven't worked out that hard in awhile. I am really going to have to start pushing myself harder if I want to do this. I am super excited about possibly getting engaged! Then i will have a whole new set of goals to meet like getting super toned once I have lost! Gotta have super nice arms in my wedding dress right?!
