I'm Still Working On It!

I'm so sorry its been such a long time between posts. Most of my blogging is done via phone. However, my new kitten knocked mine in the toilet. Making things more complicated is the fact that I just moved and don't have my internet on yet. Honestly, decorating has been more important to me than surfing the net. I'm such a girl :-)

Anyhow, I am pleased to report that I'm DOWN 15 POUNDS!!! I've been working so hard. I have my slip ups.  Just the other night I had a Pepsi. Some habits die hard I guess. I also have to work on eating smaller meals more frequently.  I work third shift, therefore, I'm asleep for a large portion of the day. If I don't get up to run errands or something its usually about 12 hours between meals for me.  Not good.  I probably could have lost more weight than I have but I'm sure I keep inadvertently sending myself into starvation mode.  So next week I'm going to try and do better.

That brings me to today. Today's assignment for the 30 Day challenge is to get out and do something.  I haven't checked the weather yet but for me that always means an outdoor run.  I'm doing my best to wait until the sun comes up so I can get out early.  But even if I fall asleep. I'm DEFINITELY gonna get that done today.

Next week I will also be trying a natural cleanse smoothie as seen on Dr. Oz. I will be using it to replace one meal a day. Let's see how this works.

Before I go, its a few people I need to hi-5.  First on the list is my girl Annie.  I've been knowing her since junior high school.  Even though she lives in Columbus now, she's been a great motivator and KICKIN BUTT in this 30 Day Challenge.  Walkin with the kids, making use of her home equipment, whatever it takes, she's getting it done.

Secondly, my homegirl/Coworker Chloe.  For the last few nights she's been showing up to work with her 5 or 6 small meals packed and ready to go! She's learning how to cook so she can stay out the drive-thru.  She even had her 4 year old helping out with the squat challenge (she is so cute).

Lastly, big round of applause for one of my Sergeants at work, Sgt. Ali (No picture).  He's been sticking to the program so tough and getting his exercise every day, EVEN AT WORK. Super proud of him!

Well...it looks like I made it to sunrise.  Time to get my leggings out of the dryer and get moving. Have a great day everyone!!
