So, progress this week, not so good. I'm up 0.4 lbs and didn't lose any inches. But this was a bad week for me. It's that time of the month and it was very hard to say no to my food cravings. I gave in a lot. But, on Thursday I joined a new gym. I worked out then, and Friday after work. Then, the boyfriend and I went to his gym on Saturday. I can run a 12 minute mile if I only do one mile and a 14 minute mile when I run 2. Saturday I did 3 miles. Ran 2, then walked and ran alternately the final mile.

Results: Down 0.4 lb's from last week and lost 1".
This week was a rough week for me. I remained pretty true to my diet with the exception of valentines day because I actually had a sweetie and he did something amazing for me. So I splurged a bit. However, I didn't work out at all this week because I had a vicious cold. I'm feeling better today and ready to get back out there and workout!

Wee bit late
I had an extremely busy weekend, I do apologize. I've recently started dating someone. So him and I were together all day Saturday and my mum, bff, and I planted a garden on Sunday. Yay for fresh veggies! My weight and measurements are a day late, though.

Yet another example of how sometimes you gain weight, yet lose inches. +1.8 lbs. -2"
Now, this week last week was not my best week. First, it was my mother's birthday and she wanted to go out to eat. So we went to Bonefish and I did not choose a healthy meal. Second, this weekend was the Mardi Gras street party in my area. So, Saturday night I did not eat a very healthy meal. Lastly, Dunkin Donuts has brownie batter donuts for Valentines, so I had to get one of those and a dark chocolate iced mocha. I did do Plyo Cardio from Insanity with the bf on Saturday, as well as some weight training. However, the insanity workout hurt my calfs so badly that I've been unable to exercise since. I don't want to injure myself, so I'm taking it slow. Oh, also I ran 2 miles! So, I suppose my diet wasn't great this last week, but my exercising was fantastic! I'm sure with Valentines this week, my diet will once again not be great, but I will keep chugging on!

I added a new measurement. My current waist measurement is taken at bra line, the smallest part of my body. That is what I've always measured as waist. I don't know why I didn't add a belly button measurement last week after complaining about it, but I did add it now. That is where I am currently losing. So although it looks like I only lost 0.5" this week, I probably lost more. I also dropped 1.0 lbs. Almost under 150! Haven't been there in a few years.
This week I've been terrible about exercising. It's been cold and I just don't like to run in the cold. I did increase my run to 1.6 miles. But I've only ran twice this week. I am seriously considering joining a gym near my house for cold or hot days when I don't want to run outdoors. My saving grace this week was that I have eaten extremely healthy and stuck to my guns on food choices.
Until next week!

Weigh In, 1-26-13
On time this week! Woot! Go me. :-p

Weight: 152.2
Bust: 37.0
Arm: 12.25
Waist: 29.0
Hips: 37.0
Thigh: 23.0
Results: Down 3.0 lbs and 0.5". What doesn't show in the measurements is my belly loss. I'm kicking myself now for not measuring the larges part of my belly initially because it has diminished a lot in size. I almost have a flat tummy! My size 8 jeans are starting to get a bit baggy on my and my small scrub bottoms are going to need to be extra small very soon.
This week I tried Zumba for the first time. OMG! It was amazingly fun and so much work! You definitely feel the burn. I also found a gym right around the corner from my house that has classes and is relatively cheap. Only $21 a month. But, I have to sign a 2 year contract. I'm thinking I should do it. I do cardio at home no problem, but I tend to skip weight training a lot. I'm up to 1.5 miles running without stopping to walk.
Favorite New Recipe: Skinny Chicken Pesto Bake. This is supposed to be served with pasta. So I made pasta for my brother, but for myself I made zucchini pasta. Basically, you julienne slice a zucchini, then blanch it for 10-15 seconds. I then served with a few chopped tomatoes and a small amount of prego.

Way Late!
If anyone happens to be following my blog, I apologize for the tardiness! I was in Tampa all weekend, and had to work as soon as I got back. Before jumping in the car to drive to Tampa on Saturday, I did manage to do my weight and measurements.
1-12-13
Weight: 156.0
Bust: 37.0
Arm: 12.5
Waist: 29.75
Hips: 37.0
Thigh: 23.75
1-19-13
Weight: 155.2
Bust: 37.0
Arm: 12.25
Waist: 29.0
Hips: 37.0
Thigh: 23.5
Results: I'm down 0.8 pounds from last week, but still up 0.2 lbs from start. And I'm down 1.25" for the week!
Inspiration time: I was in Tampa this past weekend visiting family. We ate out a lot and even when we didn't, the food was definitely not healthy. Plus, with all the stuff we were doing, I could have easily been tempted to skip my workouts. However, I chose as healthy as I could (we ordered Chinese one night and instead of getting bourbon chicken or sesame chicken, I got steamed chicken with veggies and only had a few fork fulls of rice) and I went for a 1 mile run the first night and a 1 mile walk the next morning. Now, the walk was actually to go to the gas station to get an apple for breakfast since the one provided was carb and grease overload. And, upon getting home, I weighed myself and only gained 0.2 lbs. I'm pretty proud of that.
Second inspiration: I've reached 1.25 miles without having to stop and walk. I've also reached the point in running where the feeling of dying slowly slips away and the endorphins kick in and you feel like you're flying. It's an amazing feeling.

Day late!
Oops! I didn't have time yesterday to get on and blog about my week of fitness or my results for the week. I did, however, weigh and measure myself yesterday. So the data is correct and on time, but my delivery of such data is belated. Oh well.
Last time:
Weight: 155.0 lbs
Bust: 37.5"
Arm: 12.5"
Waist: 30.0"
Hips: 37.0"
Thigh: 24.5"
Saturday, 1-12-13:
Weight: 156.0 lbs
Bust: 37.0"
Arm: 12.5"
Waist: 29.75"
Hips: 37.0"
Thigh: 23.75
This week is a perfect example of why you should weight yourself as well as measure yourself! I gained a pound. Had I not done my measurements, I may have gotten discouraged. However, I did do measurements and although I may have gained a pound, I lost 1.5"! That's pretty awesome. Also, last week I was only able to run 1/2 a mile without having to stop and walk and I am now up to running the entire mile without walking. Now, I am going to slowly extend that mile. Running tip; exhale when your left foot hits the ground to avoid getting side stitches/cramps.
Favorite recipe for the week was Buffalo Chicken Rolls. I made these for the household, but made sure to make extra of the filling. Also, I used Franks Buffalo wing sauce, not hot sauce. Sooo good. And, I chose to use dry coleslaw mix. I only ate one of the rolls in order to not load up on carbs. The rest of my meal consisted of a handful of coleslaw mix with buffalo chicken on top, sprinkled with blue cheese. I also had garlic roasted broccoli.
