No Bueno

Well, this week's weigh in was a bust. I didn't lost anything. But I knew that would be the case, because my whole body felt weighed down, like I was full of fluid. So I can only think the numbers on the scale weren't accurate.
I don't know why I felt so bloated all weekend? We've been eating a lot of bagels - maybe that's it.
I tried to drink my water this week, and thought I was doing pretty well.

All I can do is get back at it tomorrow.
That's all you can ever do - keep at it!

I was hoping to find something to replace water in the afternoon, something that would still hydrate me, but no luck yet.
Water can be hard sometimes...

What keeps me going is how far I've come. I realized since I started this journey in 2018, I've lost 2inches off my stomach, and 4 inches off my hips. It might be small, but it's something, and it has stayed off. Small victories, and time to keep at it for more results!

I have a goal, and I am determined to reach it!
XOXO

I'm Ready

One thing about getting healthy is, YOU have to be ready. No one telling you it is time to start ever works. YOU have to be the one that makes that move and really feels it in your soul. Trust me. I've started more Mondays and 1st of the months than you can imagine, and I wasn't ready so it didn't work. I've had people try to motivate me and again, that doesn't work.  I planned to start again this past Monday, but this weekend I really FELT it, I was READY. Day three and I haven't failed yet. So, I'll put that in the win column! I haven't started to exercise yet because this goofy weather has me miserable/ill with migraines and sinus issues. But making those better food choices at each meal/snack is step one. And drinking my water. Getting started is the hardest part, but I'm working it and taking it meal by meal. Two days down and a lifetime to go!

A kind word goes a long way.

I know it's April Fool's Day, but I don't do that, lol... I never have been a fan of it. But today I took the dog outside, and a neighbor who I haven't seen in a few months (because if it's cold out, I hurry up and get the dog inside as quick as possible, lol) was leaving her house. I waved and said hello. Now, either she was on one of those blue tooth phones, or she was talking to me. I am always the dummy who thinks people are talking to me when they really are talking on those, lol. She said "hello" and "you look great". I was shocked yet thrilled. But the thing is, today I have on the biggest shirt that I own (it is for real a 4x) and clearance "house pants" from K-Mart. The thing is, yes, I've lost 30lbs so far. But I don't see it. (Okay, I do in my face. I LOVE how I've almost lost all my extra chins. I've become the selfie princess since my chins took a hike, lol.) But I don't see it in my body. Yes, I ...

To Squat or Not to Squat...

I've never been able to do squats because I have bad knees. As as in life, my bad knees that prohibit me from doing certain exercises are partially due to my weight! #catch22 There are so many aerobic moves that make my knees do nothing but click, and my really bad knee will sometimes give out on me. So, that brings me to my new purchase. I bought the DBMethod machine. It is essentially to help you do squats while keeping the pressure off of your joints. But it is an overall aerobic workout (so it says) and helps with your pelvic floor (again, something that not only age but weight destroys) I did 10 the other day and my legs were like jello after, I couldn't walk, LOL Today I did 30. I think my form is correct, and I could feel the burn in my thighs. (again, I hope that is what I should be feeling, lol) I will go up a little each day until I get where I should be for an ideal daily workout. I can be the guinea pig to see if this machine is worth the money, lol. It's small,...
