Hitting the Ground.....Running!

Today starts my serious life change. I am going to work my a$$ off----pun intended! Get the results I want and begin my life. I weighed in and I was shocked at how much I weigh...I haven't been this heavy since I was FULL TERM PREGNANT with Charleigh! I weigh 186 lbs :/ ugh! Whether this weight is correct or not, as its the wii fit, at least I will be able to track lbs lost. My goal is 50 lbs in a yr. I have a great game plan that I am ready to hit full force starting tomorrow. Tomorrow starts my intense work out plan I have put together, but today I did a little cardio that I have been doing for the last week. Yesterday Chris and I went to the store and stocked up on Water, salad, chicken, yogurt, granola and 100 cal packs...I will pay for convince! Today I have started my new diet. My life long diet, not a fad diet or new extreme promising with 0 effects diet. My well balanced, nutritious diet! Its time for me to take control of my life and create a good role model for my daughters. Charleigh and Rylee you are my world and I want to be here as long as possible for you two and be able to be active with you. I love you both so much. Not only with this benefit my girls I will have my old confidence back and feel comfortable in my own skin again!Its all about the small goals, and my small goals are lose 15 lbs every 3 months!

Starting Weight: 186 lbs
Goal Weight for Jan 1, 2012: 135lbs
Goal Weight to be achieved by April 2, 2011: 171 lbs.

As I look at the next week, the only thing I am fearful of is controlling what I eat, and to not fall off my path. I start my running plan this week, on Monday and Wednesday I will be Doing 5-10 min Walk and Jillian Micheal's Yoga for Weigh Loss DVD.   On Tues, Thurs. & Sat. I will be doing 10 min & 12 min Walk/Run. and Fridays will be Yoga. Sunday is my rest day. I think the first few weeks of my running plan will be achievable, the 5-6 weeks will be a challenge but only time will tell how I will do! I am excited to see my results and I hope and pray this year goes quickly, easily and healthy!
P.S I have one other small goal....grow my hair out. This year I will not get my hair cut...just a very small trim here and there....I miss my long hair :(

3 in 30

Since it is the first of the month, and New Years day it would seem appropriate to set goals...right? Well If you are a follower  you know my Ultimate goal...if not check here:

But big goals are hard to achieve without small goals....so I am going to do the 3 in 30. You set 3 goals, any goals no matter how big or small to be achieved in 30 days.


Here are my 3 for 30 for January:

1) Lose at least 5 lbs this month.

2) Work out everyday except sunday (off day)

3) Focus on myself and my family. This means less time on distractions like the computer or TV.

So next month I will post new 3 in 30 and update about my progress on my goals!

Happy New Years!!!!

I cant believe its already 2011...this year holds a lot for me. A lot of excitement and a lot of happiness. This year is all about me! I start my new adventure into finding myself again...the girl I used to be that had so much confidence, and the mentality of "Love me or Hate me" I am excited to hit the ground running, I have big plans for my self and a great support team. Its time to finally take care of me for once and not worry about anyone else out side of my family. 2010 was a bumpy year in trying to find a new me, and at the end of the year I realized I wasn't  happy with a new me, I wanted the old me back....i know what I want in my life and what I don't, its time for me to get what I want and if anyone gets hurt along the way, I'm sorry, if you are on my team you would understand, but its not about you any more. I'm done being walked on, and looking like an idiot. So here's to me, and my life the way I want it! Happy New Years to you all, I hope 2011 is a happy, healthy and prosperous year for you all.
