Last week, Leif changed my plan up for me a little. Well, actually A LOT! He took my Carbs that I was able to eat for breakfast or my first meal away from me! I got his message and I pretty much wanted to cry! I thought, "I can't eat my eggs anymore....wait I CAN'T eat my cereal" I am still able to eat the eggs, just can't have the wrap or bread to put them on! It has been fine. EXCEPT...
I had a food melt down on Thursday! I had made Krzysztof a hot dish using bread sticks and crescent rolls and while I was making my own meal....I was HUNGRY and I did NOT have any veggies around ready to snack on. Instinctively I took some of the carb loaded hot dish that I made for Krzysztof and ate it. I wasn't done with that...I grabbed a handful of Fritos and ate those and ate an Oreo cookie......This didn't happen over a long period of time; probably within 5 minutes I had consumed all of that! Of course...I was so ticked and disappointed and frustrated! I told myself that my body was "craving" the carbs...But I know the truth is that I didn't have any good veggie snacks prepared for my body to crunch on. Failing to Plan is Planning to Fail!
I still lost weight this week....I am down another 3 pounds...so if you are keeping track that is 39.6 pounds! That is over 10 weeks! The crazy thing is....I have another 60.4 pounds to go until I reach my goal of losing 100 pounds (Krzysztof will get his tattoo) and after that I will still need to lose some more; because I will still be overweight according to the Medical charts!
My 1st short term goal is to be down 50 pounds by September 1, the first day of school! My 2nd short term goal is to be down 75 pounds by Christmas....We will see. When I put those numbers on the screen it is very scary. Scary to think that I am overweight that much and scary to think of how hard this is going to be, forever!
I went to Victory in Stillwater with Stacey and Steph twice this week. I took my daughter with yesterday morning. Ela is a trooper...she is very athletic and she loved it! The Fat Blast classes are really awesome over there. I wish I could find something here is Baldwin! We plan on doing 2 more of Victor's classes this week! Should be fun:)
Until Next Time, PEACE OUT!

The Love of My Life.....
I am going to dedicate this post to my husband, Krzysztof! Krzysztof is the love of my life. We have been married for 13 1/2 years and I love him so much! Of course like all couples and partners, we have had our ups and downs....but we continue to survive. Krzysztof continues to praise me for the work I am doing for myself and is so encouraging. What he doesn't know is that I will never let myself down again because I don't want him to be disappointed in me!
I am happy with a 3 1/2 pound loss this week! The total is 36.6 pounds lost...Can I get a , Whoop Whoop? Thanks!
I met with some of my Fitness North alums today...it was such an amazing feeling to be with the people who watched you struggle so much in the beginning and truly know what you have been through and understand your struggles! As we were talking and sharing stories (most of our talk was around FOOD!) I discovered that I have been eating almost double the amount of Fat during my breakfast....I had to laugh because I was adding Smart Balance Butter to get my fat forgetting the whole time that the Eggs count as Protein and Fat...Oh well~
Some of us did a workout today over by Lake Calhoun and it was extreme...I don't think I am ever going to get to a point and think, "Oh, a boot camp workout....no problem bring it on...I can do anything." I am always going to be thinking, "Oh crap, how bad am I going to hurt later?" The good thing is that the workout was only for about 90 minutes so there was an end to the beginning. I would rather do a Boot Camp workout each day for 90 minutes than get on a bike, elliptical or treadmill for 30 minutes!
The bad part of the workout was during the initial warm-up, we were jogging around the basketball court and on my last lap, I heard something and felt something pop in my hip....I was like, OH CRAP, what the heck was that. It hurt initially; but I went through the whole workout and it didn't bother me much. Now tonight....it is really sore; just my luck. Never heard anything back from the Doctor regarding my stomach issues...I think they are screening my calls and don't want to talk to the "evil one"! I am still having discomfort and now am second guessing myself and wondering if it is really a big deal...Although when Krzysztof did a check on it today it hurt really bad. He was really thinking that maybe it was a pulled muscle, but after today he doesn't believe that anymore. Doesn't matter what it is....tomorrow I am going to wake up (SORE) and go and workout!
