Day 62

Yesterday for lunch I had one of those Amy's Organic meals I bragged about before. I guess since I haven't eaten them in awhile I realize just how much the amount of sodium thats in those frozen meals affects you! When I stepped on the scale last night I was like yowza! :( Even after running and sweating this morning I still was about a pound and a half more than I have been this week. Boo.

Lets see what this weekend holds.

Day 61

Yay its Thursday finally!! Not that today is significant, its just that its almost Friday. I didn't end up doing anything last night. I got home and B and I went to the grocery store to get stuff for this weekend and then had dinner and then it was the Idol finale so...Lee won!! I always pick the winner. As soon as you get to the top 12 B and I can always spot who will be in the final 2-3 spots. I did run yesterday morning. I got up to run this morning too. Tonight I'm getting my hair cut and then hopefully can workout when I get home in the midst of everything else I need to do tonight.

On a side note, I tried on my bathing suits for B the other night and he didn't throw up so thats a plus. He is good about being honest with me on things so I appreciate that. He actually thought I looked good and can start to see a few changes. I have realized that I have 2 situations, love handles and thunder thighs. So, its best to keep one covered and only have 1 situation out for the world to see lol.

Day 60 Aw yeah Sally is back ya'll!!

Let me give you a little back ground on Sally- one night many moons ago, B and I were out with friends at a bar and I must've been looking good that night cause I was getting quite a alot of attention from guys-wedding ring and all. Guys, unless you are not aware, if you ask a girl her name and she tells you something old school and blah like Sally, she's NOT interested. Thats the "get out of my face and go away" answer. So do just that please. So anywho, since Sally was such a hit, she has become my Sasha Fierce alter ego so to speak. Even though her name is lame.

So I am .8 lbs away from my goal for the week!! Yessss!! I can so do this. I still have a ways to go total, but this is def a good start. Another thing, why is this seeming so easy all of a sudden. For months I lost nothing, did I have some sort of mental block up? Weird.

Come on .8 lbs be gone by Friday!!

Day 59

I am soo close to the weight I want to be for the week. I am tempted to skip dinner tonight to see if I can get there but I know thats bad. Notice I said "the weight I want to be for the week" not my total goal weight, oh no no.

Have you seen the new Christina Aguilera video? Her body is sick, and she's had a child. Ugh. Granted she is tiny anyways but man. Motivation. I love Kendra on E! I love anything on E! but I really like that a majority of this season has shown her struggles to get back into shape after having her baby. You always see celebs on the cover of magazines 4 weeks later and are like seriously? But on Kendra we learn her after baby magazine covers are photoshopped a big and only shot from the front so you can't totally see her belly. The workout video she does they put her in spanx to make it smaller, etc. This last weeks episode she was saying it had been 4 months since she had the baby and she couldn't get her wedding ring on cause her fingers were still too fat.

Last night I did the FIRM's Get Chisl'd. I love love love this workout. Its great and its lead by Rebecca who is my favorite FIRM instructor and she is FIT. Everytime I do this workout and B walks by he stops to watch her lol. She is also realistic she is out of breath when doing a lot of this, which makes me feel better about panting my way through it.

Day 58

Well...this weekend came and went. Friday was my rest day for P90X but I cleaned the house so I think I def sweated it out doing that. Also, in week 4 of each phase is a switch up before the big switcheroo so its like all cardio. I'll be honest I didn't work out Sat or Sun but I did really watch what I ate. Saturday I was on a mission.

1. Find a bridesmaid dress for a wedding in July. From what I've heard every other bridesmaid was able to find a dress at Dillard's for like $50. I tried Dillards, Macy's and JCP with no luck. So I went to Davids Bridal. What a hassle that place has become!! I walked in and of course its a Saturday which means its a mad house. So I pick out some dresses to try on, of course its hard to get a feel for what a dress will really look like on you when they don't have anything similar to the color I will be getting and the sample sizes are like a 2, 14, or a 22. Riiiight. Where are the 6, 8, or 10's?! At least then I could get some sort of idea what it will really look like if it fit! Also, when it was time to try them on, I went to the dressing rooms where are super rude girl told me "you have to go sign in and register" I was like "I have to go sign in and register to try on brides maid dresses? Ok, so I go stand in line for that. Then finally get into a fitting room where my person who is supposed to be helping me is on the phone just chatting away with someone. Thanks for the help!

2. Find a swim suit. This was just as bad. I looked at Macy's, Dillards, and JCP and saw nothing. Every tankini I saw was like old lady or solid black, or like one you would wear for a tri-athalon i.e. not cute. Of all places I actually found one at Academy. We went to buy some new life jackets and I thought what the hey, I'll take a peek. I'm not in love with it but its the closest thing I've found to decent. Whatev.

Day 55 Oh my...

Last night I tried on my swim suits, the 3 I already have... oh my. I wanted to scream, cry, and throw up all at once. HOW did this happen?! It was bad, I'm not lying. So rather than just doing Kenpo for an hour last night, I did that and then spent an extra 30 mins running. This was an emergency!!

I'll be honest, I've never been a fan of tankini's. Sorry to the big girls out there but I always labeled them for big girls. I think its time I look into one. Sigh. I have never found a one piece that offers any support for the girls. They are always low cut and stuff and when you have boobs that doesnt cut it. While the monokini's are cute, you just can't rock that look with love handles.

Day 54

Bah I am so busy lately. I think my mind is exhausted and its causing me to sleep later. I havent gotten up to run at all this week in the morning. Oops. I also have forgotten to do the Ab Ripper dvd after my weight workouts this week. Oops. Seriously where has my mind been?! I have also made 2 trips to the grocery store this week and forgotten many important things. Terrible.

Last night was Legs & Back. I love this workout. Tonight is Kenpo, its kickboxing type stuff. Love that one too.
