Gotta Love Water Weight and Biggest Loser

I love Water Weight. I don’t love gaining it, but I LOVE losing it. I stepped on the scale this morning and I am down to 182 pounds. Seven pounds in about 3 days. It was all water – I must of really packed in the sodium during the past few weeks. It is a good feeling, but I can’t get too cocky about the loss. I won’t even register it as an actual loss until Monday – we will see.

Did you hear that Biggest Loser started again Tuesday night? I must have been living under a rock because I completely missed it, but with the wonderful and great world that is HULU I was able to catch what I missed. It looks like it will be a good one – not 100% what color I am going for. I like Brown…maybe black…maybe purple – we will see how I feel after next week.
One thing I do have to say is I love Jillian’s hair!!! I so which my hair was that thick and long.

So here is to my third day back on track. I am having a blast – can’t wait for Food Friday – it has kept me so accountable!

I Told Them They Were Not Invited to The Wedding.

Yeap! I did it. I looked right into the mirror and told these flabby, flapping arms they were to not come within a hundred mile radius of my big day.

I mean they have already made an embarrassing appearance at Kim’s wedding.
Yikes. What kind of funky dance move was that? I think that maybe that was a too many glasses of wine move.

Seriously, though this is the picture that I untagged of myself on facebook. It was just too much. I couldn’t stand thinking people would see this.

So, how am I going to do it? I gotta set some major goals. I don’t want to set a weight goal. I don’t want to say “I have to lose 25 pounds before the wedding.” Nope I want to set some weekly nutriotion and fitness goals.

Ok! Stop LAUGHING! Yes this is me the girl who dropped Tennis last year because I really didn’t want to run to chase a ball. And this is the girl that could knock back two big macs in one setting because McDonald’s had a 2 for offer. That is why I am sitting here today typing this…obese and unhealthy.

Here is my plan!

Food!

  1. I plan to eat between 1200 and 1500 calories a day. And track every morsel that gets put into my mouth through Spark People.
  2. I plan to eat out (fast food and restaurants) no more then twice a week. This is huge for us…if there is one thing JAG and I have in common it is our love for food.
  3. It’s not just the calories it is the type of foods. I need to keep fats at a range of 27-60, Carbs at a range of 135-252, and protein 60-136. I didn’t come up with this on my own, Spark People helps with this.
  4. WATER!!! I drink diet soda A LOT. Diet soda, wine, and coffee. Water needs to be up to eight 8-oz glasses a day. I have known this since I was 18 and teaching other people to do it. It can be done and will also do wonders for my face.

Fitness!
  1. Cardio everyday! I know it is extreme, but for right now I need it. I need to do atleast 45 minutes everyday. I will alternate between the treadmill and allowing Jillian Michaels to kick my butt.
  2. Oh I am going to dread this, but resistance training (muscle building and toning) especially in those flabby arms everyday! I plan to do bridal bootcamp everyday.


Don’t worry…you will keep my accountable. I will come and tell you how it goes. Especially will Jillian. That broad kicks my booty and I usually quit mid-way through, so my ultimate goal is to make it through an entire 45 minutes with the same intensity she puts out.

What is Spark People?  It is awesome and I will definitely share with you my experience tomorrow. Or you could be proactive, click the link or click the icon on my side bar and get directly to my page. I post daily (well almost daily) video blogs for my spark friends. Just fyi I am not being paid my Spark People and I just think it is cooler then cool!
