Day 2 castor oil

This is the quick update i promised took the castor oil this morning at 11:00am same way 2 tablespoons with orange juice the funny part about it is that it didnt taste bad this time around i actually didnt even mind it anyways... About 2 hours later i did have to use the bathroom nothing too horrible did get the runs. Than again at around 3 the runs nothing bad and that was it. Havent felt and unusuale contractions or pain its already 9 pm so i think its safe to say it didnt work with me. Ill give it a rest dont want to get dehydrated or anything like so i might just wait until tuesday give it a go and see if by than mu body is a little closer to wanted to open and it might just give it that push it needs.

Im moving on to try the evening primerose oil which clames to help soften the cervix similar to what sperm would do ive read you insert two capsules vaginaly and leave it over night and its suppose to help. Some people even took it oraly as well but i think thats a bit much with me testing my stomach out i think ill stick to vaginaly and see how that works put ill be doing it everynight until thursday when i should be getting induced hopefully ill have a baby before that. Wish me luck ill update again of anything happens from here until thursday if not ill update on how the induction went and my experiance with it.

Thanks for reading

3 years later...im back .... And pregnant

Omg its been like 3 years since i wrote on my blog let alone even been on it. Its funny to read the post i had written and how i look at it now i was really strong even if didnt feel like it at the time i was able to loss weight from 180ish to 130ish, i dont think if i tryed again that would happen this moment in time i couldn't even get close to that. But enough on the reflection lets talk about whats going on in my life right this moment

UPDATE
Three years later from when i was blogging on here i am no longer a college student graduated may 2014. Got pregnant sept 2014 and here i am as of today 6/26/15 40 weeks +1 day im having a baby boy who will be named Abraham jr. 

Here is a little bit about my pregnancy it was not planned to begin with but it most deffenetly is a blessing. Im having a baby boy no cravings i had minimal morning sickness no health issues untill recently ive been having edema swelling of the feet. Weight wise after finishing college i was up and down between 145-155lbs i figuered this was my ideal weight for my body type because i didnt have to try had to stay at that weight. After college graduation and moving back home and stress about getting a job and boyfriend problems i ended up gaining weight and stayed at about 165lbs before i found out i was pregnant i was already 14 weeks and from there abously the weight only went up. Im 40 weeks + 1 day and i weigh 194lbs. All in all i have gained 25 lbs to me thats a lot even though they say its normal to gain 20lbs based on my height and age but all i can think about is how hard its going to be to loss all of it after the baby. 

Since im over due and they are trying to induce me on the 2nd of july im super nervice and trying to get the baby to come so i dont have to worry about getting meds that are only going to make the pain worst. I think this a good time to start my blog up again and document the end of the pregnancy and most importanly the weight loss journey i will be going on to loss the baby weight stay along and hope you injoy the posts. 

I will update once the baby gets here and of you out there strugglying to naturaly induce ur labor im there with you ive been walking and doing stuff on the exercise ball. They say nipple stimualtion ive been doing thay here and there. The other day i finally decided to try the castor oil i was sceptical in terms of the effect since it is a laxitive. But i gave it a try anyway yesterday 6/25 here is how it went i took around 1pm 2tbs with orange juice fallowed by alot a gatorate simple bc i was scared of getting dehydrated if i did get the runs lol. Everything was good 3 oclock came and nothing at 5 oclock went to my mother inlaws house to have dinner everything was good at 6:30 as soon as the hubby and i got home i had the runs nothing crazy but we had just eaten so i think thats what really triggered the bathroom run. I only had to use the bathroom twice nothing crazy it dis clean me out bc later that night i felt conctepated. At around 12 that night i was getting pain on my back it was worst than the fake contractions they say you get bc i would stand up walk around sit down and the pain wouldnt go away. I couldnt steep from the on and off pain that came so random until 4 am when i made myself sleep through the pain. This morning i have no pain nothing new so i think the castor oil semi worked but not enough to cause me to get labor pains like should. Im giving it a second try simply bc i did feel it did somthing and myabe the second will be the lucky try. Ill post again sepretly about the second try for those who care and those who dont well you dont have to read it. 

Thanks for ready ill make sure to let everyone know how it goes 

ENDLESS MONTH

Im sorry to all those who are still reading and are wondering where has this girl been. I suck at updateing and especially in the last month. Last time i checked in i was talking about being back in college for a summer class and being so happy to be back because i was going to be able to focus on weight loss...The goal i set up was that by the end of the first week in july i would be 130 lbs.

Well here is my update...life sucks....Really ive been stressing with school like crazy who knew summer classes would be this stressful well now i know what to expect and i can really say i have been having to focus on school and not so much on lossing weight. Basically this month was about focusing on school and i feel unacumplished i wish i could come on here and say o i did so good in school and i was able to reach my weight loss goal. But here i am realizing i only have one week left at school and than i will find myself being home.

dont get me wrong i still have all the time in the world to loss the last 20lbs but i know that as soon i go home instead of lossing i end up gaining and that just sucks and i know being home is my weekness and i need to work on that but its not easy.

But enough about me feeling down about waisting all june because it was waisted in regards to weight loss but thankfully i have spent my time focusing on my class and not just being lazy and so thats a little better. for most of june i have not extercised the way i should have but i did manage to keep my food intake extremly healthy, however this week that past i was feeling depressed and i ate food i knew i shouldnt have, and for that reason i have decided to go on an all vegtable and fruit no meat or processed food schedule for my last week here. I was watching a movie yesterday and it inspired me to do some kind of a clense and i think this will give me the boost i need to continue focusing on my weight loss. It was called "FAT SICK AND DEING" something like that and this one guy ended up doing a juicing for 90 days and his healthy really improved and well i was planning on doing something similar but i need to first buy a juicer and be sure buying veggies and fruits is on my budget especially when i get home. But ill figure it out once i have to cross that bridge as for now since i dont have a juice i will only focus on eating the whole fruit and veggies. Wish me luck and i will keep all of you updated on how this is going so far its only going to be for one week and depending on how i feel about it i might continue it at home but ill have to see how i feel.

2 WEEK UPDATE

This is my second week into starting this weight loss journey once again...The start of this month (June) after being home and giving up on the extercise and the healthy eating i got up to 142lbs which truthfuly talking i cant complain because that still an awesome number but it makes me upset that i worked soooo hard in april and May to get down to 135lbs only to get back up after less than a 1 month being back home.

But im turning the leaf and letting the anger go and realizing that here i am i have not given up and June is my month to focus and get back on track. June 1 i weighed in at 142lbs i was going to update last friday but "TOM" was visiting and i didnt feel the weight was correct and i was bloated and not in the mood to post the weight...Today its Thursday June 14, and its about 2 weeks since my last weight in and im at 136.2lbs

im so happy and excited thats 6lbs down thats 3 lbs each week i cant be any more proud. I have been working like crazy and my mind is focused on so much and i want to continue doing this great but i know from here on out things are going to go slow because there is only so much weight i can loss.


ive been feeling sleepy and not in the mood to study even though i want to focus 100% on school but i cant because i have the weight on my mind. I choose to go the gym over studying, i choose to take a nap and recover my body to do a 3rd workout instead of studying. I NEED TO STOP REFOCUS AND TAKE THINGS SLOW.

with this said my goal this week is to slow down with the weight loss and focus on school ill only be here 1 month i can manage to put the weight loss on the back burner and focus on passing this class. I need to i have not choice and hopefully i can give my 100% once i get back home on the weight loss since all i will have is work to worry about.


well with that i hope you all have a great rest of the week and weekend and whats awesome is the boyfriend is visiting and this will give me a chance to relax and let go.

IM STILL HERE!!!!

Ive been gone for about 1 month and im sorry because i feel as though i tend to do that alot i get on here and than out of no where i drop of the earth :)...This time i was just in vacation mode and didnt feel like updating mainly because my weight loss went down hill. I was home for 1 month i went from being 136 to 142. Im frustrated because i worked so freaking hard to get down to 136 it took me over 2 months and than in less than 1 month i went way up and here i am at 142lbs regreting every day i waisted.

However right know im taking a summer class back in school for 1 month and im focused and ready to drop 10lbs this means i would be 132lbs by july. Ive been back in school and doing my regular routine since Tuesday june 5th. I have set up such a big goal with the 10 lbs so i realized i need to work extra hard and focus and give all i have. So far the week has been amazing except for "TOM" has arrived and i have been bloating like crazy and craving and all that fun stuff.

My workout routine

I have classes early in the morning so i wake up at 5am and go for a 1hr walk/run. I walk half the time and run the other half. From 7-12 im in class. I go to the gym for 1hr in the afternoon. And finally at night i do the 30 day shred. (im on day 3)

Im not counting calories i have never nor will i start...I listen to my body and feed it accordingly i try to eat every 2 to 3 hours 4 meals 2 snacks. I eat more protein and carbs know that i workout alot more because i need the energy and also i need to give my muscles the right nutrients. So with that said i am taking a multivitamine pill its the 1 a Day Women's.

Thats it for know im probably going to weight in fridays. Also ill be posting some updated pictures and im keeping track of measurments for the 30 Day Shred. Heres to me being back and to all of you who are doing so great...lets accomplish all these goals and kick some butt!!!

FOR ANYONE INTRESTED***NEW PICTURES***

HEY EVERYONE CHECK OUT MY PICTURE TAB....NEW PICTURES TOWARD THE BOTTOM...AND I MUST SAY I SEE A BIG DIFFERENCE!!!!!!!!

NEEDED SOME MOTIVATION TODAY BECAUSE I WAS FEELING DOWN ABOUT NOT DOING ENOUGH TO LOSS SOME MORE POUNDS SO I DECIDED TO HAVE A PHOTOSHOOT IN FRONT OF THE MIRROR AND EVEN THOUGH I DONT LIKE THE REFLECTION I HAD TO COME TO MY BLOGGER AND COMPARE IT TO MY OTHER PHOTOS AND I MUST SAY I LOVE HOW MY BODY IS TRANSFORMING AND I RATHER BE AT THIS WEIGHT THAN THE WEIGHT I BEGAN.

SEROUSLY TAKE PICTURES EVEN IF YOU HATE TO BECAUSE SOMETIMES YOU ARE SO FOCUSED TO REACH AN IDEAL IMAGE BUT YOU DONT STOP TO SEE THE DIFFERENCES THAT ARE ALREADY TAKEN PLACE...TAKE PICTURES AND MONTHLY UPDATE THEM IT WILL RAISE YOUR MODIVATION IM SEROUSE DO IT DO IT DO IT!!!!!!

Finals week

This week has been nooooo good. I have finals to study for and the stress level has serously been at its all time high. I have noticed that i have been eating like crazy and my excuss is i have not time bla bla bla but i shouldnt come on i have come so far to suddely give up because i am faced with problems.

And to add to the stress level i broke up with the boyfriend. It wasn't a fight or anything it was almost like a mutual understanding that things where just not working out. Serously though this guy is the lov of my life so im sure this is not going to last. Normally we end up being friends, fixing our problems and end up back together but lets see where this takes us.

basically i came on here to do a weigh in since i did one on tuesday. This morning i was 136.4 lbs that is a .4 gain, as soon as finals are over i have to focus because im so close to my goal weight and im not ready to give up. Lets hope that by next tuesday i will see some changes and if not at least i can say i am 43 lbs down from the begining so i cant be mad or upset.

hope you all have an awesome week.

Hello MAY

May is here and it seems as though april came and left and i was unaware. I decided to do a weigh in today so i could have a starting weight for this month i weighed in this morning at 136lbs. I am very happy with this number i was shooting for 135 so i was not too far off. I hopeing that by the end of May i will be at 130lbs and finally reach my goal weight. But serously i want to start concentrating more on switching my workout and focusing on weight training alot more once school is done.

Im starting may off awesome i started running on the tredmill....I starting off slow and steady switching from walking 5 min to jugging 5 minutes and i must say i love the burn i feel on my legs and hopefully this will shock my body and it will finally decide to change especially in the leg area but lets see how well this goes... Hope you all have an awesome week !!!

GOOD BYE APRIL HELLO MAY

Ok so im getting ahead of myself somewhat but not really may is going to be here on tuesday. Time flys by so fast and i feel as though i havent made so much progress. But thats all in my head and thaughts like these are the ones that hurt my journey sooo i will sit here and reflect upon my journey and see how far i have come.

So i was suppose to weigh in on Friday but guess what i moved it to tuesday....I will know at what weight i will be starting May and asses how i well or bad i did in april that way i will reflect and see what changes i can make and all that good stuff.

On another note ***u dont have to read this but i thougth i would put how i have been feeling lately***

I feel that my body is starting to slow down, im so close to reaching what i had set for myself to reach 130lbs and even though i push myself and i try and do everything right i feel like my body or at this point my mind is right on the edge of giving up. I have alot more lazy days than i normally do i dont allow myself to have them but i have to constantly fight with my mind and tell it that this is for my own good and i will not give up. Some times i realize i need to change things up in order to not have to struggle with a plateau but its so hard especially when you are in love with your workout scheduale and your eating schedule and the results they have provided. But i think its finally time for me to switch things up but i dont know how. I love the eliptical and hate the tredmill and even though i know i should push myself to try something new and strengthen myself in all areas. But i feel that when i dont enjoy the workout im more likely to give up or try and come up with any excuse to skip it. WHAT TO DO??? ill see how this last week and a half of school go and once i get home ill try new things such as running outside or starting workout videos ive been thinking of combining Insanity and 30 day shred. and this is only because i have no gym access back at home.

omg talking about gym access my friend back home the one friend who has always been the big girl just like me. ( a liitle bit about her she lost weight our senior year of high school and to be truthful i was jelouse she had so much attention and suddenly i was the only big girl in the group. However she started gaining weight throughout the last 2 years ) During spring break i went to see her and she didnt mention anything to me but my brother came home and was like ooo she was talking to one of your other friends about how you lost so much weight and that you look so different. That made me feel so good i dont know why but just knowing that people notice make this journey all worth it. But than on the other hand this might sound selfish but what ever this is the way i feel and i cant help it, she suddently after seeing me she want to lose weight too. But she has decided she suddenlty out of no where cares about animals and wants to become a vegan WTF. And than she messages me randomly and is like o i really want someone to workout with this summer we should be workout buddies. And to be truthful i said yes but at the same time i love working out by myself i have time to listen to my music and clear my head and push myself to my fullest. but when you are with someone else they are talking to you and than when they want to go ahead and do something else you feel obligated to go with them or at least slow down especially if you two are running together. IDK if i like this whole workout buddy but ill give it a try and see how it goes.

This post was super long sorry...hope you all have an awesome weekend enjoy the last couple of days left in Apirl and let make May count

WHAT I EAT!!!

So like ive said over and over again if i had to give any advice to those starting out or those who are going through stressful moments like i am right now. Eat healthy: healthy to me includes a small portion of protein with each meal and alot of veggies. And most of all Drink lots and lots of water.

here is an example of what my day would be like
Times would vary so i wouldnt exactly know

Gym (6:30) ( elliptical 60 min) usually i burn 700cal or 650

breakfest ( this changes alot but usually a boiled egg with avacado and veggies sandwich)

Early Lunch ( usually this changes: when i have a long day i eat a bagel toasted with a very small amount of cream cheese, on my shorter days i will eat 2 different fruits ( strawberries, banana, kiwi, apple, orange)

snack: I normally grab some string cheese, nuts, or another fruit

Late Lunch: (3:00) this is always always always at 3pm: This changes a lot depending on what i cook or what i have available in my fridge. an example is a small portion of grilled skinless chicken breast with a medium size salad (tomatoes, cucumber, romane lettuce, avacado lemon juice)

Dinner: (6:00) i usually try to eat at 6 or 7: This changes as well but usally its the same as my late Lunch i cook enough food for two servings and i eat one serving late lunch and one for dinner
**and if for some reason which only seems to happen during my "TOM" days i end up getting cravings or feeling not full later at night around 8 or 9 i eat a late night snack usually i grab fruit or recently i baught some string cheese and i usually grab that.

Im not affraid to feed my body when i feel i am truly hungry only because i know my choices are healthy and i never count calories i guess you could but thats not the type of lifestyle i want i just want to be able to rely on my own instinct
weekends are a different story weekends are my days off because i like to confuse my body usually on weekends i eat heavier meals and i dont workout. I still eat healthy but i usually replace the salad with brown rice and instead of my regular protein i change it to a higher calory protein such as beef susage or ground turkey or fish. Sometimes i go with whole wheat pasta with all natural tomatoe souce and i eat this in portions. But like i said this changes alot and depends on what i have available.

I go grociery shopping every week to get fresh veggies and fruits. I used to always buys food on campus and i would choose somewhat healthy foods but i noticed that i spend the same amount buying food everday than i do buying grocery everyweek. So money wise its the same and i feel better know that i eat alot healthier. Im in no way an expert in what you should eat and i think you should focus on buying things that YOU enjoy. By buying thing i enjoy i dont feel like im starving myself or forceing myself to eat things i dont like this helps me avoid binge eating even on weekends "my days off" i dont go out and buy some fast food or anything Like i said i change it up and eat things i like such as pasta and rice.

This was a long post i hope i was able to give you guys some ideas of what could work for you guys. It all takes time nothing is easy and remember results should come slowly.

if you guys have any questions or comments please dont be shy i will answer any questions. Have an awesome week.

Weight update

Hey my blogger friends.....Ive been stressing like crazy this week and i cant seem to focus but the good thing is that school is over in 3 weeks which i realize will be the most stressful weeks ever but than i will have 1 month free and at home before i have to come back and take a summer class but anyways

This friday i weighed in at 138.8lbs last week i was at 141.2 thats 2.4 lb down which is awesome you guys

Like i said stress has been affecting me and truthfully i missed about 5 days of working out and to make things worst "TOM" came and everything went down down hill regarding working out and having the energy to do anything. But the good thing which i think helped me still loss weight regardless of working out or not is eating super duper healthy.

**check out my next post i will be talking about what i eat and some things that i think are helpful**

Take a look

Hey stoped by today and uploaded two new photos to my progress page. TAKE A LOOK NO BIG DIFFERENCE FROM THE LAST ONE BUT WITHOUT A DOUBT I AM PROUD OF THE PROGRESS.

HOW CAN I NOT BE PROUD TO SEE THE DIFFERENCE FROM THE VERY BEGINING TO WHERE I HAVE COME!!!!!!

weight in Friday

today i had one of the worst days of my life i was in pain this morning with no clue why and ended up staying up all morning from like 2 to 7am with pain and than having to go to class for an exam and a presentation. Longest day ever and i have to admit im feeling so much better now.

As for my weight loss i have good and bad news....This morning i weighed in at 141.2 thats so good but here is where the bad news come in...I was 141.4 last friday and than easter weekend happened. I ate super horrible i knew i had gained weight and i decided not to weigh myself because it would make my week sour and all that. So i basically am back to where i was one week ago. you could see it both as good and bad but ill take it and move forward.

The goal for April i had setup for myself was 140 i think if i continue to go in the same direction ive been going for the last 2 months i should be past 140 by the end of April so i decided to change my goal to 135 lbs im shooting very high but i hope i can atleast be 135 by the second week in May which by the way is my last week in college and than summer vacation for me :)

hope you all had a great week and enjoy your weekend i know i will be studying alot so wish me luck.

Weigh in Friday!!!

So friday is here and i woke up feeling amazing. I steped on the scale and found out im at 141.4lbs that is a 3.4lbs loss from last week...Can you imagen the smile that was on my face this morning. Well this made my day and it pushed me to do better at the gym. Im improving everyday and trying to push myself to do better in my workouts.

I think what has been helping with the weight loss like i mentioned last time.... is my eating habits. Im focusing on sticking with fresh products alot of vegtebles and less carbs. I dont have much to say but i will continue to post and keep everyone updated. Im sure by next weekend i will have some new pictures to post so watch for that.

Did i mention my boyfriend is visiting this weekend. Super excited and at the same time worried how horribly im going to end up eating. But its ok i need days off anyways so i wont stress and as soon as he heads home which will be sunday afternoon i will be back on track and hopefully have awesome news next friday.

HELLO THERE

Its been a week and some time since that last time i did an update. Things have been crazy with juggling everything and making sure i stay on track with school and with the weight loss.

Quick update Friday 3/30 i weighed in at 144 lbs which is a 3 lb lose from the last time i updated. That is amazing so i left march with a high note...Just a reminder my goal for APRIL is to get down to 140lbs...I have changed a couple things up so here is a quick list of those things.
1) I stoped doing the 30 day shred...It was amazing and i liked it but i wasnt seeing the results i was looking for and also i was getting board of it. (im thinking of visisting this workout once i get down to my UGW)

2) Ive still been going to the gym every morning on the eliptical 60min (interval). The last week in march i started to do 30 min on the tredmill (interval of walking and runing) and than 30 min on the eliptical( intervals)

3) ive also started to do INSANITY...im not doing hard core or starting the program completely im only doing it when i have time and when im in the mood. (lol)

4) the most important of all...I talked to my Father about uping my monthly allowance so that i can start buying fresh food instead of buying school food. We did the math and it came out to be about the same amount. So last week i started buying fresh things and every weekend im stocking up. take this from me serously...EATING FRESH IS THE WAY TO GO...ive felt a big difference with alot of things. I dont feel bloated anymore, i feel like i have more energy, and i feel good knowing im not eating processed foods. Ive been trying to eat alot of greens because i herd that flashes your system out and i think its working but either way i love it.

This was a long update like always and i promise i will be trying to do more quick updates and keep all of you informed with what is going on. One big difference i think you will notice is that i have been focusing alot on the weight loss but i need to swich things up because school has been suffering and so i need to but weight loss on the side burner and but school first. As soon as school is over in May i will go hard core on weight loss and so lets see how things go.


Hope you all are having awesome results...stick with it...The end results are the best results for all the hardwork you put in ...and always remember give your body a rest before your body gives up on you.. one day of eating wrong wont kill you..take it and learn and move on. Lov you all

MARCH WAS HERE>>>>MARCH IS GONE

Wow is it crazy or what that march has gone so fast and i feel as though i had no improvement ro any significant progress but again i think that is all in my head.

i konw, i have not been on my page in a couple of weeks, but the good thing is that its not because i was hiding or ashamed of anything. In actuality i have been doing great....

Let me start out with the bad news and than head into the awesome stuff. In my last post i had wrote about feeling worried that i would go home and gain weight. Well when i went home i ate horrible some days i would to portions and other days i wouldnt care. However i did do workouts during my week at home, i would walk/run with my sister in the mornings and i continued my 30 day shred program. I did feel as though i gained weight during the week of spring brake but i didnt even check my weight.

I came to school on a last sunday, this monday that passed i started exactly how i left off before spring brake hopeing that if i did gain weight i would loss and be back to where i was by this weekend.

This whole week i went to the gym every single morning and worked out for 1 hour. I finished day 17-20 of 30 day shred level 2 and starting monday ill be starting level 3. Ive decided i have been working my body way hard this week and before it gives up on me i will let it rest this weekend.

Ok i know this post is long and all you guys want to know is where am i at with my weight loss.

Well i weighed in this friday at 147.6 lbs. Ok guys that number is amazing and im proud that i have made it so far and i can see some changes in my body and my energy level. However i have to push harder than ever because its as though i feel that my body doesnt want to move from this number and as i get closer to my goal weight it gets harder.

The plan i have right know is to continue what i have been doing the remaining of March. Switch things up a little in April. Starting a new workout other than 30 day shred. The goal for April is to reach 140 lbs. I will be checking in every friday on this page so stay tuned. Hope everyones March has been great and keep up the great work sooner or later your body is going to go along with the work you put in.

Weekend Success

Hey everyone hope everyones weekend was as great as mine. This is a long post but i have much to say.

Saterday was day 5 of the 30 day shred. It was great i didnt feel any more pain from the prevouse day so i was able to do the strength training without any pain. So i also have some other news. On the weekends i dont go to the gym simply because there is way too many people and i hate figuering out what to do until a machine is free. However i really wanted to continue my strive with the workout so i didnt want to just suddenly stop. So i was looking through the workout videos i have and i came across one called Shape AB's. So i gave that one a try.

Ok first of all i want to say i didnt like it. Here is why, there is a cardio part and i gave it a try but it was way to hard to fallow and it went fast so i didnt like it at all. The only good things about this video workout was the ab section it was amazing it works every AB and i loved it. I dont think i will be doing the cardio part but whenever i want to work on my AB's i will reach for this video.

After hopeing for a good workout and not getting it i thought i would grab another video and give it a try. My sister gave me the Brazilian butt lift system and its been sitting on my desk and i never really took a look at it. So i grabbed it and read everything that came with it. I came to the conclution that i am lossing my butt and this video could possible help me to shape it and all that good stuff. Im fallowing the Lift & Shape workout schedule, the week starts monday through saterday with a rest day on sundays. I decided to give mondays workout a try to see exactly what i was getting myself into. So mondays workout is the Bum Bum.

The workout was crazy it had me sweating and hurting and i almost wanted to give up. But i didnt i pushed through and i felt great about it.

Today, Sunday
i did the Bum Bum workout again and my legs are hurting from it but i think that shows its working. After that i did the AB section of the Shape video. Later in the afternoon i did day 6 of the 30 day shred, it was great i loved it i pushed through it and i worked hard and i was sweating and i was feeling great.

I dont know but im really into the whole working out thing. Its weard because as you guys know i had not workout the entire time ive been on the weight loss journey, and know im so into it. I dont know i hope it last for a long time because it gets me up and going. The only thing im worried and in some kind of way stressing about it heading home on friday knowing that i could possibly slip and fall of the weight loss wagon. I dont want to so i will try my hardest because i love the path i am heading in and i dont want to take backward steps.

by the way did i mention my relationship with the scale is no longer the same. I only step on it the day of the weigh in which are now fridays. This shows improvement because im no longer obsessing over the weight and stuff. Im more worried about the changes i see in my body.

Ill be doing a post soon about the great results im seeing. AAHhh stay tuned


With that i let you guys go, hope everyone has a great week ill be posting as much as i can. Keep up the great work.

FRIDAY

today is friday and i couldnt be any happier. Ok i have soooo much to say so let me get started.

I just got done doing day 4 of the 30 day shred. I got through it all good no brakes and i was pushing and giving 100%. The only thing i have to mention to anyone who is thinking of starting it is that it leaves you hurting both in your arms and legs. I thought it would only be the first or second day. But today all day i was hurting from day 3 and  i guess its good because it means im working the muscles. I will be updating as i go along so keep a look out for that.

Today is my weigh in day last time i did my weigh in was on Feb 23 and i was at 152lbs

Day 2 of the 30 day shred

Well hello everyone. I did my second day of the 30 day shred level . Woohoo im so proud because i finished it all without taking a brake and i made sure to push through it all. I was sweating like crazy thats a good thing. Hope to keep you all updated i will be doing weigh ins on fridays starting this friday. I just thinks that helps me evaluate the week and if i need a rest i will make sure it will be on the weekends instead of during the week when i have the chance to hit the gym.

talking about the gym i didnt go today i was sore from the 30 day shred and it was pouring rain outside. So basically i used up my first rest day but i still did the 30 day shred workout i makes sure to fit that in no matter what. So hopefully tomorrow its not raining and i can hit the gym in the morning. See thats something i hate about being in college. Because in the morning most machines are free and there isnt that many people, but in the afternoon starting around 10 till close there are so many people and than you have to be waiting and all that. So basically the best option is to go in the morning but my lazy butt wants to stay in bed but im pushing myself

lets see how long this last....oo and also im heading home march 10-17 and im supper excited i need a brake from school and i want to see all my family...but on the other hand evertime i go home i mess up big time... i fall into food temptation and i dont workout. But hopefully know that i am doing the 30 day shred i will continue to stay on track. Lets see how that all goes.

30 Day Shred

Today i decided i wold start the 30 day shret. I started today on level 1 and im telling you for all you who have never tryed it trust me it is a butt kicking workout. I was doing it and some time during the end i was like i need to take a brake which really that ment im done with it. But than i thought really this workout is only 20 minutes and you cant finish it....really...so i pushed myself and guess what at the end of it i felt accomplished and i think if i push myself like i did today i will finish this 30 day shred and kick some butt. Also i dont remember if i mentioned this before but hey this week has been going great because i have started to include workout into my daily routine and no im not only talking about the 30 day shred i am  class, from one class to another, from class back to my room or if im heading to a meeting and so farth.

But on friday i was board in my room taking a brake from studying and i was like ok gaby you are at 151lbs..why not try on some of the clothing that used to not fit?? ok so i go i try on some shorts i have that used to be tight and you know what they did fit and some were even loose.  but here is the issue i was proud that i could fit into the shorts however i still even with them fitting loose had a big big big muffin top. Really that is the last thing i needed to loss the weight and still have a hudge belly. The next day, on saterday i started to workout. Ive been doing some zumba and i loved it. But im not sure exactly where im heading but i do know....I need to workout if i want to have a flat stomach and no loose skin.

One of my biggest fears is to loss the weight and still have loose skin. I think its not too late to start toneing im not so focues on arms and legs but with the 30 day shred it does adress those areas so that a big plus. Ill be doing updates on the weight like always on the weekend but i can already see that this week will be a good one because i started great and i think i will contiue to push through the lazyness and focus on the UGW.

Ill post some before 30 day shred pictures took keep track if there are any changes.
