Already a small bump in the road...

After two official training sessions with my personal trainer (PT), he 'texted' me this morning to say the scheduling conflict we'd be having is no longer working for him, our workout today was canceled and I'm to wait for a new PT to call me.

So disappointed.

Hopefully, this new PT will be able to accommodate with my schedule, since I'm a full time student, work part time and cannot be at the gym every day. I want and need someone who will commit to me and my goals, so I can go to the beach this summer and enjoy myself in a bathing suit, having fun in the sun and water!

I did not workout today and won't be tomorrow, either. I hope to make time for a home workout on Tuesday and should meet my new PT on Wednesday.

On the up side, I have been losing weight this week. I'm down 2.4 pounds or so from last week. Maybe it's the fact that I'm now eating 5 times a day. Breakfast, lunch and dinner, with a snack in between. I bought myself a single-serving blender and shakes with protein powder have been yummy!

Work is another problem. I cannot wait to quit that place. Let's pray these summer internships I've applied for (and have one interview this week) work out and I can move on.

Two weeks in...

Well, it's been two weeks. Two weeks that I've been very strict about what I'm eating and working out. Last Monday, when I weighed myself, I'd lost 2 lbs. I'll see what the scale says tomorrow. I haven't had fast food in over two weeks! This is a big deal and big accomplishment. But you know what, I haven't been craving it. If I feel the need to stop and get food, I go to a sandwich shop, where I can get good, healthy, fresh ingrediants. I worked out 5 times last week and 4 times this week. I think I'll wait another 2 weeks until I measure myself again. My two friends haven't worked out or been restricting their eating. I told one that they need to start working out. Sure, without them participating, I'm in for an easy win. But I'd rather lose $100 (what we're all offering, at the end of the deal, as a prize) and have my friends lose weight with me. I'm just trying very hard to make sure I do the best that I can.

Welcome Back!

By my title of this post, I am welcoming both you and I back to my blog. Not too many of 'you' out there, but maybe one day! So, it's been 8 months since I've last posted. A lot has happened! I have completed my training sessions (after rotating between 4 trainers - good overall, but too much stupid shit someone paying a lot of money for training had to go through), I have been to South America (my first time out of the country), I am officially a junior in college, I completed an awesome internship, I have a great new job at my college and, oh yeah, I've lost exactly 50 pounds and 30 inches! I originally lost 20 pounds on my own before I got a trainer. With their help, I was able to lose about another 20-25 pounds and a lot of inches. This was key b/c I was not seeing much physical results on my own. Since my training stopped in July, I haven't worked out much, but I've lost about 6 pounds. It's been a year since I started all this. A little longer than...

Finally

So I finally worked out today. Did 30 minutes on the treadmill, reaching just under 2 miles. Obviously, a lot of work needs to be done to get miles down to a better time, but I'm not trying to win a race here. I have meals planned out for the week, as to stop any ideas of grabbing Chick fil A for lunch or pizza for dinner. Besides those types of meals here and there, I already eat pretty healthy. No soda or coffee, eat brown rice, whole wheat/grains everything, low fat/no fat options, fruits and veggies, drink plenty of water and unsweet tea from the pot... Really, it just comes down to me sticking with a workout plan and forgetting those last minute, bad for you meals. I plan on blogging about more than just weight loss, but I guess I'll get to that later. :)
