Kristi's Diary

yoga seems to be good for stretching and strength but doesn't do anything for cardio (unless you count the excessive amount of cussing I do when I can't twist into pretzel)

you should really have a mix of both...
 
Yeah, I guess you're right. I kind of want to take it up, however. I am so stressed out right now, and yoga seems like it is perfect for me!

I had my soccer banquet tonight. I'm so sad that I'm done with high school soccer. IT seriously has been the best part of high school. I have some pictures, though! The first one is me and one of my best friends, Kyleigh. I've known her since kindergarten! The 2nd is me and my coaches. The one with the black hair has coached me since Iwas like 9. And the last one is me and my goalie, Cass!
 
Wooow! What a busy day! I have been babysitting my niece and nephew all day! they're 2 and 3 and don't stop moving...ever. lol but I had fun. AND I got to watch the OSU game because they took a 2 and a half hour nap!

Food went well today. I don't really feel like outlining, so I'll just leave it at that.
 
Thanks Austin :) I just updated my ticker, too! Weighed in at a little under 130 today, but I always account for a pound or two from food.

I could NOT sleep last night, but I'm over it.

Two great things:
1)Eric comes home TOMORROW!
2)I worked my legs out last night, and I'm not sore!!!

Yayayayayaya!

Okay well I have school now :ack2: so I'll write later! Have a good day everyone!
 
Crazy about the rolling pin, huh? I didn't want to tell you (but you already knew) how painful it is. I had to make my bro do it to me because it was very painful, I was so sore then I swear my calf muscles were so tight that they were about to snap off the backs of my legs, lol....

That sucks about the gym membership. I can't imagine what I'd do if I didn't have mine. I love to exercise outdoors though, just not in the cold. I'm a wuss. We should be getting snow here soon in Utah. The weather has been very weird the past few days. Yesterday it was 73 degrees and today it was like 40 degrees, whatever.

Good to hear you have a nice break from school over the Thanksgiving holiday, and you get to see your bf.

take care,
Sam
 
I just got a foam roller for the same purpose as your rolling pin. Self myofascial release is a great recovery technique.

Who says you need a gym membership? What kinds of things do you have lying around the house? Buckets? Anything to make sandbags?
 
I was actually going to be the Billy Blanks boot camp videos and try those out. I've heard they are pretty good...
 
Ahh! I'm so scared for today...I hope I can deal with this in a semi-healthy manner, or else I am going to get set back about 2 or 3 pounds. :(
 
Been a while....and that is because it has been a while since I have managed one healthy day. :(

I need to get back on track. Luckily, I only got set back a little, but still...

Eeeghh...

Tomorrrow is going to be a good day. It's going to be a low-cal, billy blanks workouting, GREAT day.
 
OH....MY....GOSH.

That's what I think of myself right now, and it isn't a good omg. It's an ashamed, disgusted, cant-believe-I've-let-myself-slip omg.

And slip. That's an understatement. Over 10 pounds gained in a little over a month is a disaster, not a little slip-up.

So...my boyfriend just left, which is significant because he is usually my lets-go-out-tonight temptation. My fridge is empty and waiting to be restocked with Whole Food Mart food. And I know that things will only get better from this point.

I don't have a gym membership, so once again I am going to have to just eat healthily. Mom just bought an exercise ball, however, so I will start using that to become stronger. As for my cardio...I guess I'll just have to see how things go.

Tomorrow is day 1, and the picture at the bottom of the page is serving as my inspiration. It's of me at the beginning of the summer, and I am about 13 pounds skinnier in that picture than I am today (130 versus 143).
 
Well, I must say...the signature picture works very well to keep me motivated!

I've done well so far today.

Breakfast.....Clementine 25 cals
Lunch.....Healthy Choice Soup & 1/2 blueberry muffin 240
Snack....5 Ritz reduced fat crackers 70

So far that's 435 calories. Not sure what's for dinner, but I'll post again once I'm done with it!
 
That's a little better I think. Sorry about that.

Not much to say today. This morning I was at 139, so that's good!
