I LOVE the holidays! My family makes THE BEST cookies...and fudge...and all food really. This is my downfall. I eat. And I eat. And I nibble some more. I could go into a sugar coma if left alone with the sweets too long. I am human.
To say that my weight is the same as it was on December 1st would be a lie. Honestly, I've fallen off the workout wagon. Life got extra stressful and I was getting sick. Still have touch and go laryngitis. Again I am human.
But what I'm not going to do is give up. My Monday is actually Sunday. So since my Black Friday purchase came in the mail today I think I am going to mix it up and try something new tomorrow! I'll keep you posted on what I try and how I like it. I'm going to stick with 21 Day Fix meal plan as I know that and have things planned already.
My goal for the end of the year that was set in November was to break though to the 240's lb range. I'm hovering at the edge of that again. So new goal time - 245 lb or lower by New years. That gives me a little over 19 days to work on it. And I still have 2 family Christmas parties to attend - oh boy..... The struggle is real in my house!

Post Holiday recap & Weigh-in!
Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving or Happy Thursday if you are outside the US. ;)
The recipes we tried were good. LOVED the pie and even had some for breakfast the next day! The corn casserole was super yummy. The green bean casserole - I'm sure would have been great.....had we followed the directions on the seasonings. >.< It called for three sprigs of thyme, we decided to use dried and over estimated how much was needed. So it was a no-go for me. But others ate it at the gathering so maybe it wasn't all bad..... But I was good and even though I ate the non 21DF green beans and had two helpings of corn casserole & two pieces of pie with ice cream - I didn't over eat!
And it's weigh-in day as it's a new month and a new 21 day fix round. The biggest yet if you are part of the Facebook group lead by none other than Carl Daikeler (chairman and CEO of Beachbody) and Autumn Calabrese (21 Day Fix)! I haven't done my measurements yet but my weight this morning was 243.4 lbs! This is the lowest I've been in FOREVER and I'm excited about it. :) Can't wait to see how this month ends. It will be a challenge as there are 4 Christmas parties planned and only 3 I can attend. Plus potential work gatherings and treats. The sabotage is there but I will be stronger, I will enjoy the treats but not over indulge.

UPDATED - The holidays are coming!!!!
Thursday is Thanksgiving here in the US. While I am looking forward to seeing family and spending time with them - I'm worried about the food! I'm better with my portions but I know some of the food won't be what I should eat. Like green bean casserole - which I LOVE. BOOOO!
We were asked to bring a dish and I missed signing up for that one. But I'm going to bring a healthier version in a smaller dish that I can eat. And can share if someone would like some. I'm also taking cornbread casserole - because it was so dang yummy last year. And I'll have a small portion of this and probably be done with my yellows for the day! HA! And we were asked to bring a pie. I don't even want to think about desserts! That was until I found a great pie recipe that IS 21 Day Fix friendly. Yes, I'm sharing links to what I'll be bringing. :)
The pie recipe is courtesy of Jamie Callahan, she is a fellow coach and the link goes to her blog post. 21 Day Fix Pumpkin Pie
She used a big can of pumpkin and took out two cups. Agave could be replaced with maple syrup is you would like.
The green bean casserole recipe comes from the Team BeachBody website.
Green Bean Casserole
I can't wait to try both recipes Thursday and eat smaller portions of the other goodies. :)
**UPDATE** - I found a healthier version of the corn bread casserole! They simply call it Corn Casserole on SkinnyMom.com. I'm so excited about this!!!!

Weigh in!
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. :(

Not to bad for my first 7 days......
My first week of 21 Day Fix is in the bag! Day one was by far......the worst day ever! Now don't get me wrong the Total Body Cardio was great. But my legs were jello! Not to mention we had a walking field trip later that day for work. *cries* And Friday we had another field trip - to the zoo! I walked over 16,000 steps, a little over 7 miles, and according to my fitbit had 104 active minutes!!!!
And what were my results to show for it? I'm down 3.4 lbs as of this morning and 2 inches over all. Like I said slow as a turtle but the results are coming through! I'll take it :D

Feel like a turtle......
So I'm not the fastest person working out to my video. I even sometimes modify the modifier (with things I know are lower impact options from previous experience)! But I'm still getting up early, working my tush off and doing it again the next day.
The benefit so far? I could barely move Monday I worked my hamstrings and glutes so much more than I had in forever. Sitting down hurt. Not actually sitting but the process of getting into or out of a chair. Steps, inclines, you name it, heck just walking on a flat surface was painful. So that benefit you say, yeah, sticking with it and continuing to work out each day has lessened the soreness in my legs (and ice/heat therapy). I don't feel like my legs are going to buckle if I move the wrong way. And that is muscle building at it's best.
I've also gone from working out 3 days a week to working out every day. Eating better, no more processed crap. And that's the basics in a nutshell, or well a turtle shell. It's a slow moving process when you first start but the results come through when you stick with it.
The best part - you know why it's called 21 Day Fix? Because that is how long it takes to make a habit, 21 days. And once it's a habit you keep doing it!

Change in eating and workout
In the past year I have managed to gain back the 10 lbs that I lost. I was still working out with Jazzercise, but due to a new work schedule I only could get through 30 minutes of class before I needed to leave. That's when I saw the weight come back and knew I needed to do something different.
Enter my cousin, Nettie. She has been rocking her Beachbody programs and looks awesome! I've participated in a few of her groups and looked at programs but it was never the right time. Until this month when my weight got back into the 260's. I put in my two weeks notice with Jazzercise (I was a class manager with them) and bought my first program 21 Day Fix challenge pack.
Monday 8/17 started my new journey to health for myself and my start as a Beachbody coach. I'm sore as all get out from using muscles that I hadn't been working properly. Struggling with the food program and eating ALL the food I need to, and it's a lot! But I have a wonderful support group with me to answer my questions and encourage me on. And that's what I need. I may not be working out with everyone but it feels like it in our group.

Knit a little
Plotting a swap package from someone special keeps making me think of all the things I want to knit. Too many choices though! I think I need to narrow it down to something quick......or finish the project that was on needles ages ago. Darn I think that is what I need to do first. And then I have a birthday monster to make that is two years late. See this is why I blog - it jogs my memory. ;) Will this happen soon.....who knows but I'm hoping it does. I miss knitting and the stress release it provides.
It's gonna take some work.....
Weigh in this morning was 259.8 lbs, yesterday was 258.8 lbs. The difference? Well dinner last night was greasy bowling alley pizza - 2.5 slices and pop. I don't drink it that much if at all. I'll even only fill my cup half-way at fast food places and get the smallest option or medium size. But I also didn't drink enough water yesterday as I should have. But I'm trying to be good. Taking my Herbalife vitamins, Total Control, remembering to take my Biotin (because damnit I shouldn't have a thin spot at 33!), and drinking one shake a day. Would be using Herbalife shake mix......but it's old and I'm not currently a distributor to buy new. And budget, so it's slimfast for the moment.
Today is a half-day at work again. And I'm there the whole day. >.< Which means something quick for lunch to take with me and most likely a pop again to drink so I am not dragging behind in the late afternoon. Then off to practice later to get shown up by the kiddos on the dance moves. But I'm moving! ;)

Time and life just seem to get in the way.......
I've been having issues with stress, which of course causes weight gain. Almost everything I have lost has come back. Weigh in this morning 261.2 lbs. What is causing the stress? In a word - work. Depending on the job it could be a coworker or kids. Some days it's both. One coworker found a quote that I need to get a copy of...... Found it online!
I need to remember this and let things roll off my shoulders. There was another one that hit me as I was searching for this one.
This is the truth of the matter - when I hold on to things that upset me, I eat. Doesn't matter what it is, I stress eat. I need to remember that little meals more often are better than binge eating my feelings. Don't get me wrong I still love me some snacks. But I try to limit them. And I notice when I am happy I don't even want them.
So it's time to get back on track. To blog more and veg less. To keep myself accountable to trying to get healthier. As a friend pointed out when I said I needed to lose weight - not High School skinny, that's too skinny. I totally agree. I weighed 164 before I got pregnant with my oldest and was 5' 10.5" tall. I'm 261.2 lbs and 5' 8.5" now. Yeah the weight and my constant slouching have made me shorter - the measuring tape doesn't lie. :( Truthfully to get down to 190-210 range would be ideal. Losing between 50 - 70 lbs is an ideal goal. And of course I decide to start right at the big Holiday eating time! Might be a good thing that we are staying home on Thanksgiving this year. I'll only have to worry about not eating ALL the sugar cookies at the family Christmas parties. >.<
I know eating is not the only part I need to work on. This weekend I'll be getting back into Jazzercise again. Which means I should probably shave my legs as I don't have any long pants to work out in..... Man being a girl sucks sometimes!

I've moved.....
My new blog location is here and not only have I moved but I combined this blog with my main blog because really it was too fricking had to keep up with that one let alone this one too!

weight today is 261.0 lbs. typed that backwards to read 216.0 at first - man i wish it was that! anyone watch the biggest loser this past season? i did - mainly because there were a ton of people who were local. you see i live in michigan and not only that but i live just outside the town that ron and mike live in. my kids go to school in that town. ron is actually a sub bus driver and has driven some of the kids to our school. which of course sends us moms and kids who watch the show flocking to the bus stop when we see him. :) we recently went to better health on a trip for food and it just so happened tobe a day that they were there talking to people. my girls were so excited. my youngest B even thinks she spotted mike at a local grocery store after that day......but we weren't certain it was him so we left him alone.
over the course of watching this season i picked up the biggest loser family cookbook. we love it! being a family of 5 we need recipes that are budget friendly and that is what this cookbook is filled with. no to metion most of the things my girls will eat.....and me too. and it seems that by using these meals i am maintaining my weight so the flux isn't so much as it was before. i also am reading master your metabolism by jillian michaels - holy crap the things that your hormones control and make your body do when out of whack! i've been motivated to make sure i eat breakfast and am snacking at least twice a day on healthy food items and not something overly processed. now does this mean that all the sweets and cookies are gone from my house..... no but i am eating them in moderation instead of inhaling half the package in one sitting.
exercise - is still my enemy. i haven't found a good time to be consistent with to actually go to jazzercise. plus with the time changes in the school schedule this year i need to find out how my work hours will be affected to see if i can make a morning session or not. so its down to the wii fit and the numerous exercise videos/dvds around my house. but i'm working on it and cleaning the living room so there is space for me to work out in. darn tiny house!

Bleh
ugh weigh in this morning was 258.2 lbs. it keeps bouncing up and under the 260 mark and driving me nuts of course. i am mad at myself for letting it get back up this high again. and i know that i am the one who needs to change and do the work to get it off. the stress level on this and other things right now it through the roof and no end in sight. trying to figure out how involved i will be next year with the kids school. if i will continue to work there or get a full time job - if i can find a full time job. then what to do with the kids? j will be going into 5th grade next year but not really old enough (or so i think) to be staying home with her younger sisters until i come home. then that means extra bill of childcare. ugh see the stress?!?!
i have been buying weight watchers meals and snacks to eat, keeping track of my food and water intake in a journal, and just trying to think about what i am doing. i need to find the right time to exercise and probably should just get off my butt in the morning and do one of the many exercise videos i have sitting around here. or hell even get out of the house and walk some.

Weigh in
252.something lbs. on Friday. I can't remember exactly what it was. I had a night out with the girls that night and couldn't be bothered (read drank more than I wanted to thanks to friends) to weigh myself on Saturday morning again. It was a fun night out of course and more details are on my main blog (link on the side). But highlights - cute waiter at dinner, a friend who kept putting her foot in her mouth - not literally, a live band and superman. ;)
Have a great week!
Have a great week!

Weigh in
A week ago weigh in was 252.0 lbs. - lost of fast food and eating out that week. Too much running around and not enough exercise and not to mention TOM and stress.
This past Friday (well Saturday really) weigh in was 249.6 lbs. And I got to a Jazzercise class - I went to a Lite one like I wanted to and it kicked my butt. And then I didn't have a chance to get back yet. This week the kids are off school so I can go anytime during the day that there is the clubhouse open and I think I am going to try to make it to the other Lite classes offered. Because even though it kicked my butt and I got lost a few times it was fun and I enjoyed it. The butt kicking was a good thing - really!

Weigh in
Because I forgot (silly me!) I weighed in on 1/24 at 249.6 lbs. Or maybe it was 249.4 lbs - can't remember exactly for sure right now but it was one of those two! :)
On Friday (1/30) I weighed in at 249.0 lbs. YAY! Slowly going down but it's moving. I started working at Jazzercise but not yet working out there. I wanted to try the Lite class first but I missed getting out on time that day. The only time that calss is offered during the week I am working at my other job and can't make it there. :( So I can either try a regular class and most likely keel over afterwards or wait until next Saturday and try to get to the Lite class on time.

I slept in super long this morning (almost to noon!) and of course just about an hour ago remembered that it was my weigh in day. >.< *sigh* I will weigh in tomorrow....I promise as long as I remember to do so before grocery shopping. My brain is on vacation because it Girl Scout cookie time and I am of course cookie mom for one of my girls troops.

Weigh in....
I had a dr appt this morning and since this was the day I started weighing in on a while ago I thought I'd post the 'official' weight. It was 251.4 lbs - with shoes on. But I have a plan. One of the ladies that I work with at our church owns a local Jazzercise and has invited me out many times to try a class. Well she was in need of a daycare worker for one class and called me. This give me a discount on my membership and with turnaround being what it is there is the potential that I can get another class time. Having another class time will get me a free membership. So of course I jumped on the opportunity. The only problem is the time she needs me is the same time I would be working at the school. However it is the day we don't have the kndergarten classes so we usually have an extra person and get done early. I still have to talk to the principal about it to see what she would like me to do and if I'd need to have my shift covered that say or not. But of course today we had no school! I seriously thought we'd be there sicne we have in the past but I guess with it being -25 F they must have thought it was better to keep the kids home. I just hope that no one walked to our bus stop this morning because they didn't know school was canceled.
But I am looking forward to working with the kids and getting into Jazzercise. one of my daughter's friends mom is a instructor there as well and the friend said I should join her class. :) Well I just might now. I also bought 10 minute solutions - dance it off & tone it up from my local Sam's club a week ago. I like dancing so why not use it as my way to lose weight right? i figure that and jazzercise and I should be good.

I know its a few days late but I was thrown off over break as to what day was what by the end of last week. I thought Friday was Saturday.....
So weighed in yesterday at 250.3 lbs. I don't know if I am up because of TOM or from eating. Most likely both. *sigh* I am getting back into exercising I have to. I was actually doing worship team for the kids this past Sunday and ended up doing both services like I used to - it KILLED me after I was all done I just wanted to sleep. Not to mention I was out of breath and wanted to die of thirst. I would love to get back on my Wii Fit but my living room has no room in here right now. I have to clean which I hate and today is my oldest girls birthday so I am baking. ARGH! Frustration and stress are good friends of mine right now. Ok not friends so much but they are living with me. ;)
Gotta get back to getting stuff ready for the b-day girl. Have a great day!

New Year and same stuff
Well it's the 3rd of 2009 already and I am way off the 2008 wagon. *SIGH* I weighed in yesterday at 246.7 lbs. Can't remember right now where I started last year at but I think this is less. As far as I am concerned that is an accomplishment - even if it's not too much.
Will be working on this goal as I am totally unhealthy and right now it sucks. So eating better and exercising in my future.
Hope everyone is having a great year so far!
