Couch POTATO to "MARATHON" HONEY! :)

Wohooo...so I've been TESTED several times already when it comes to ALCOHOL ...and I PASSED! Week 3 of no alcohol & I feel great! :sifone:

...I'm not as tired, I don't feel guilty, I haven't been eating EXTRA because of it, I don't go to bed as early, I'm spending less, I'm FULLY AWARE, & I feel like I have gained CONRTOL over ME & the situation at hand...which was that REALITY, I was drinking WAY too many nights out of the week...maybe 4-5...UGGGH!!! I know...but now that it's on LOCK....I can move past that....:coolgleamA: ...LOL!!

...I honestly just want to keep it up...til who knows when....

We keep doing this... ;) :D .... you forgot FOCUSED, DETERMINED, IN CONTROL, and evidentally from your posts today.... COMEDIC!!! Congrats on the three weeks!!! It takes alot to restrict ties to something that you like, or maybe THINK you need. :D How long are you going to be the in control, motivated, accountable, determined, focused Alta for??? I think a Looooooooooong time!! Have good ones Alta!! :) :)
 
Ya just needed to get to a REAL studio :sifone:

SO glad you enjoy it!
hahah.....what do you mean a REAL studio.?...LOL....I'm afraid to ask....

(I thought the room full of peeps in there with REAL teachers , real work, real sweat, and REAL SORE, was a real one...:confused:!)

....if that wasn't real....I'm really scarred to see what is...LOL!!!

You are so sweet! I like your picture there! You are SOOO PRETTY!!! :)!!!! You have a great positive outlook from your posts too!!! ;) AND I agree...a sense of humor is GREAT to have!!! You rock girlie!!! :D:!!!!
 
Now i just have to keep on doing these things...

So this week I lost 4lbs!!! :party:!!!! AND IN THE PAST 3 WEEKS of the CHALLENGE= 8lbs LOST! I know it's a lot to lose in one week....but HONESTLY I think what happened was that TOM was here last week, and I probably lost the 2 from the week prior along with the 2 from this week that were held back....REGARDLESS it's 4lbs!!! :D!!!

...Since I'm nowhere near goal as well, that's probably another reason why I have been losing more rapidly as well....I do have to say though that I have been changing things.....hmmm...let's see

1) I don't eat past 7 pm (and if I do...very very small snack)
2) I exercise at least 5 days a week now
3) I don't drink
4) I drink 1 1/2 gallons of water and green tea combined
5) I take vitamins 3 x a day
6) I maintain low carb eating
7) I eat snacks now
8) I am incorporating the Psyllium Seed husks (POO BABIES LOL)
9) I am varying my workout- yoga, stairs, ropes, aerobics, and little bike
10) I am thinking HEALTHY ATHLETE...positive affirmations
11) I am drinking a lot of shakes frequently throughout the day to maintain full and keep the metabolism going...and a meal for dinner
12) I am carrying my ropes for resistance everywhere
13) I eat low to no sugar....
14) I eat low to no salt.....
15) I LOVE MYSELF ENOUGH NOW TO TAKE REAL STEPS :beating:


...regardless....I'm happy...cause I'm sure this weight won't fall off as fast as I want...but I can dream and ENJOY today though!!! :smash:

Also....my size pants that I use for measuring....( I have a pair of pants from Express in different colors and in every size from 14 all the way to 0...so I keep my measuring and MOTIVATIONAL CLOTHING...to one manufacturer...)

..anyway....SIZE 6 ZIPPED UP AGAIN & THEY FIT! ....:sifone:
 
Hey Sweetheart!

I meant NOW you found a real studio, sillyhead! ;) I think I have disdain for Bikram. Just because it's the SAME OLD SAME OLD and the only thing that makes it cool is the fact that it's hot. *YAWN* I admire that you got your cute little butt into that new studio and are inspired to learn MORE postures and advance at your own, perfect pace :)

You are NOT a numb nut :smash: December is a straight party month :party: At least you're kicking ass at taking off the weight you put on--and no more hiding under a rock, either! I'm gonna STALK you if you start to slip out of your good habits!

Speaking of good habits, whatever happened to your gallons of green tea? I'm prejudiced against coffee because I think it smells and tastes nasty, and I notice that lots of people drink it like crazy and don't eat breakfast, crash, then overeat dinner and are tired all the time :sleeping: I don't like that cycle! I notice a lot of people in that cycle are overweight. Geez I'm hard on you! Little sister! :dupe:

I'M PROUD OF YOU [US] FOR NOT DRINKING!!!!!! :hurray: :hurray:


But now I'm scared that I might have to quit for a lot longer in order to get to my goal and make it my "settling point." Apparently we can re-set our bodies' preferred weight/body composition with lots of effort. I want to make 135 lbs my settling point. And I think I might have to give up my Boss Tycoon of Partying status to do that! :( Eh......oh well, I think having a fine ass body might be better.

HUZZAH for the pounds lost!!!!!!!! :party:
 
wooooh!!! a size 6?! omgosh that is totally gorgeous!!! im sooo happy for you!!!!! haha btw you are totally awesome girl!!! i cannot wait for the day i fit into a size 6 and totally hot!
 
omg alta!! congrats on the size 6!! I WANT TO EB A SIZEEE SIXXX!! :) and that's smart u keep it to 1 manufacturer since all sizes vary! :) :) yey.

i wish i was a sixx!!! ok right now i'd settle for 8. ahha. :)

KEEP UP THE SUPERBB JOB! :D yay yay yay
 
Alta I love the new avi!! Your smile is such a beautiful natural thing. I'm hooked baby!!!

Seriously hun, you rock, those pounds are falling off, your list is awesome, and seriosuly, thinking like an athlete:iagree:Thats where my head is at right now... because I WILL be one!!!

Good thing you love yourself too, cuz we all do, babe!!!

Well first of all your avi is just gorgeous! OMG, I cannot believe you fit into a freakin size 6 from Express! I could never do that at my low of 128 lbs. At that weight I managed GAP and Banana Republic size 6s no problem, but Express runs SMALL girl!

Thanks for listing your routine, its very motivating for your little buddies on here. So what's in these famous shakes you've been mentioning for so long. Must be somthing low carb I assume? Do tell! I personally love the Slimfast Low Carb shakes. They have 190 calories, 20 grams of protein and only 2 net carbs! I'm sure you've seen me mention them before as I'm like a walking commercial for them. But damn they pricey! They just increased the price at Rite Aid from $6.49 for a 4 pak to $7.29! I've only seen them at Walmart otherwise, so hope the price hasn't gone up there. Luckily I dont make it to that dive Walmart very often.

Anyway, have a wonderful day mi amour :).

I know that's right along your CUP OF TEA..and speaking of tea....I am STILL guzzling the gallons down :D:!!!....and the YOGA...ahhh...I get ya know...so that's what you meant about a real studio!!! Ya, I'm glad I'm progressing at my own PERFECT PACE as well!!! And Bikram...yeah the heat is cool, and that's about it....even the people there are WEIRD...no one talks and they all just focus on the 3rd EYE...LOL...where as HERE...:eek:...the instructor makes it a POINT to hug you, and PEOPLE are WARMMMMM and friendly, and I LOVEEE THAT and the poses are WONDERFUL & work ya!! Truly AMAZING!!! I'm gonna be sad after the first month is over for that price....:(

...YAAAY for no drinking...I feel ya though...I think I have to quit for like 6-8 months...LOL.....too to get somewhere near goal! DAY BY DAY THOUGH!!!

**Angelica: WOOOHOOO!! Thank YOU!!! I know size six does SOUND crazy but really it aint...LOL....I am one FULLLL SIZE SIX....from all aspects :D!!! I LIKE IT THOUGH...these humps just gotta get smaller ya know?!?! ;) And you too....will be a size 6 SOON!!! ....you should try motivational clothing...it's REAL inspiring...b4 I didn't ever weigh....clothes was all that mattered...that's the REAL test! ...LOL!!! YOU ARE AMAZING!!!!!!!!

**oLUX: THANKKK YOU GIRL!!! Size 6 is amazing, doesn't feel like it...but the DIGIT IS SINGLE...thankkkk the heavens...LOL......but the closet is still full of better looking clothes awaiting for me if ya know what I mean!!! Soooo, yeaaa...WORKKKK IT BABY, WORK IT.....it is!!!! Woohoo!!! WE CAN DO THIS WOMAN!!! CheeeooooOOW!!!!


**Cabbieeee:....YOU ARE SUCH A SWEETHEART! Thankkk you!!! I like my avi better than the POINTY KNOCKERS too...LOL!!! Besides...the SHIRT was in the way....so it had to go....LMAO!!! (if ya know what I mean ;)!!!) And your GOOD VIBE HUMOR is SOOOO CONTAGIOUS...I can't stop smiling whenever I see ya around!!! WE LOVE YOUUUUU!!! :beating:!!! AND YESSSS, we are CHAMPION ATHLETES!!!!

LOL!!!....:drool5:...LOL!!!...I am sooooo PROUD OF YOU girlie....4lbs two weeks in a ROW is INSANEEEEE!!! Keep up the GREAT WORK!!! You are KILLING IT!!! CHEEEEOOOW!!!

**Blancita: Awww you are so sweet! Thank You for that sweet compliment about my avi!!! I love yours too...cause I feel your motherly LOVE!! It's sooOOO SWEET!!! And about the EXPRESS pants....I didn't know they were smaller than GAP....I thought they ran similar too, but HEYYY that sounds REAL GOOD (though my wide ass doesn't think quite the same..LOL)...
- THE SHAKES are BRINGING MY BABBBIES OUT!!!....the ones you get sound yummier than mine, cause they are pretty boring the way I make em...but...

..they have Low Carb Whey Protein Powder (with almost no sugar) & Psyllium Seed husks....(POO BABIES COME WITH HUSKS)...that's why I love them....the fiber fills ya...so I have a lot of those to keep fueling and not hungry along with tons of green tea! But I don't put sugar, or anything else...(I used to put fruit in there) and just water...or else my POO BABIES don't come...and that makes for a SADDD SADDDD ALTA!!! LOL!!! ..Those shakes you drink are pretty pricey though...I spend about $5.99 for the Husks and about $9.99 for the Protein Powder...so for like =$30 I last for a month...! ....better than when I used to do Herbalife shakes years ago....that was like $150 a month...!! YOU HAVE A MORE AMAZING DAY THAN EVER TODAY TOO!!!

And for those of you curious to what vitamins I take:


1)Women's Multi-Vitamin
2)b-12
3) Glucosamine-Joint Support
4) Calcium Citrate
5) Vitamin C Complex
6)Flax Seed Oil gel caps
7) Very Green (vegetable supplement)
8) High Potency Anti Oxident

...which @ Trader Joes Market run much cheaper than most...and range betweeen $3.99-$9.99 being the most expensive....and I take them 3x a day!
...considering I drink SOOOO MUCH HOT GREEN TEA and water...that I flush everything right out...so RIGHT BACK IN IT GOES!!! LOL......you good things are NOT ESCAPING THIS BODY!!! CheeeeeeooooW!!!!!

**Trops:: YOU ARE SPECTACULAR!!!!!! I FEEL THAT I WAS READING THAT LIST OF ALL THOSE AFFIRMATIONS (MOST..x1) LOL....WERE ABOUT YOU!!!!! :iagree: .....YOUR AMAZING DEDICATION HAS REALLY BEEN KEEPING ME IN LINE TOO!!!....(a secret desire to make you proud...LOL...soon I'll be jumping rope too...YOU WATCH...LOL)!!!!!!!! wooooohooo!!!!!!
