Grade Time

Well, I have failed. Tomorrow marks the 6th week in my 'Lose 10 Pounds in 6 Weeks' challenge.

Last Monday, when I weighed myself, it said I had gained half a pound, putting me at a total of 5.5 lbs. lost in 5 weeks. This completely devastated me and caused a HUGE decline. I ate a bad meal every day this week. It's pathetic and even worse to admit, but I didn't eat as well as I had the past weeks. And I only worked out 3 times this week. I've always made either 4 or 5 days in which I've worked out, but not this week.

So, tomorrow morning when I step on the scale, I know it won't show a decrease. And I did nothing two weeks ago that warranted a gain of half a pound. I don't know what happened but I reacted poorly. I plan on getting my act together again tomorrow. I'm hoping all is not loss by the horrible week I had and that good results will continue coming my way.

On other news, I have completed my first week of school at my new university. With five classes, I've been loaded with reading and homework all in the first day. It will be a busy semester, but I'm striving for the best.

Big Brother

I absolutely LOVE Big Brother. It's part of my summer. Watching the show on TV, online and catching everything that happens inside that house. Thursdays are the biggest night, as it's a live show, so you're not privy to what will happen. Although, you usually know who will go home. It'll be interesting to see who wins HOH this week. Hopefully someone who will break up the romantic pair in the house. So far, it's been pretty boring. Maybe the person in power this week will shake up the house a bit. But first... I'm determined to make my school decision by Monday. I'm pretty sure that I've already made up my mind, but I'm too scared to say it out loud. Not sure what I'll be doing this weekend. I know one of my friends will be out of town. And hopefully another friend feels well enough to keep our plans of working out Sunday morning. I've been good with food and exercising this week. I'm starting to feel my stomach muscles after ...

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-serv...

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.
