Morning all! I figure one way to stay accountable is to post my weigh ins online. I mean why not, I have been brutally honest on my facebook with the exception of sharing what my weight is at or had been at. However, I've shared that all here in the sidebar bio! GULP!
Sorry for TMI to any guy followers I'll try to keep this as vague as possible - ha! It's that favorite time of every ladies month. And I've been craving carbs like crazy - sweets in particular. I even had an Angry Orchard pint at bowling and paid for it in bloating the next day. I'm amazed to say that even with indulging every now and again - the weight isn't fluctuating majorly. And I was pleasantly surprised at what my weight was at the beginning of this week 246.6 lbs. Normally it balloons up and since I was off the workout wagon I figured it would be like a 5 lb increase!
That brings me to my weigh in today - 245.6 lbs! Woot woot! What am I doing differently? Well I got back to working out again. And I did good, with the exception of yesterday due to not feeling well and busier than normal schedule. Today I slept in and I needed it, which means workout tonight instead. I'm also still following the 21 Day Fix meal guide. I may not be accurately measuring things out, but I am consciencely thinking "that is 3 yellows, if I have that then I can't have this later". Which is working well most days. I also need to get back to planning out meals and then buying foods accordingly. I also started a crockpot meal group and have been trying the recipes with my family. So far we are 2/2ish. The second one I was told didn't have much flavor and was good but not something to eat often. Of course it was one I liked. LOL
Major problem is that my kids are still eating junky snacks in their lunches and for snacks. We get some healthier options but they go for the others 9/10 times. Trying to break them of that habit will be tough....... NOT looking forward to the sugar detox when they go through it.
Off to get ready for the last day of recess time this week - cold and windy in the Mitten today. Not looking forward to standing outside for an hour. :(

My journey to a healthy me :)
About Me
My Journey....
Hi, and thanks for stopping by! I'm Jen, married with kids and overweight. Below is a little about my past experiences. I came close to hitting the 270 mark in 2014. I upped my game with my then workout program and managed to get down to 252. I've since come back up and started a new program and lifestyle change, currently doing 21 Day Fix. My new goal is to lose 50-60 lbs. I'm looking for a healthy me and not a skinny me this time!
My Past:
I decided back in 2006 that I needed to lose weight. I weighed in the new year at 242 lbs and got down to 220.8 lbs. 8/25/06 before getting sick. I started 2007 at 233.4 lbs. In 2008 I hit my highest weight ever - 258.6 lbs. I've had enough and have gotten back on track.
My goal is to lose 80 lbs. I want it gone and I want it gone for good!!!!! I get some exercise during the day but could use more and it's just the balance of that and eating right that I am trying to figure out now.
