Yesterday was the weigh in, ugh. Let me just tell you now and get it over with.
Previous weight - 206.8
Current weight - 206.6
0.2 pounds lost. Total lost so far = 24.8 pounds. SO close to 25!! Arghhh!! I was really disappointed:( But, I have to move on and try even harder this week!
At least I have an excuse as to why I barely lost. It was the week of my birthday!:) Let's see if I can remember what we did...
Thursday I worked so I probably slept most of the day Friday, I can't really remember lol. Later I went to see my friend Angela who I haven't seen since my wedding in October. It was great! I really missed her. As a plus, I also got to see my friend Varsha who I haven't seen in YEARS probably!:) It was so fun seeing them!
When I got back home, Charlie and I did major spring cleaning in the basement. He organized the storage closet while I went through bags of clothes and my dresser. I was able to bring out some old clothes that fit me now, and packed away some too big clothes and labeled them "maternity" lol:) Yay! The house looks way better now!:)
Saturday I went and got a mani/pedi which was a present from Charlie:) After that we got ready to celebrate! We went out to Fat Daddy's. It was so fun!! I'm so glad a lot of my friends and family were able to make it out. I definitely partied hard and was so happy I got to take a shot of Patron(e) with Caitlin!!:)
Sunday we just recovered:) But I did manage to exercise!!:)
Monday we went to Arundel Mills mall and shopped around Bass Pro. Charlie got some new shorts and beef jerky lol. We stopped by Scrubs & Beyond because I really needed to get a better fitting pair of scrubs. All my scrubs are 2x and I was able to get a pair of Large scrubs!! Top and bottom!!:) Yay!! They look awesome!
After the mall, we went over to my parents house for dinner. It was great, we had a Chipotle inspired dinner. My mom basically replicated everything at Chipotle, and it was perfect! Of course I HAD to have flan, my favorite dessert of all time. My mom makes it sooooo good!! It was also kind of sentimental because March 19th last year we had dinner at my parents, including flan, and that's when Charlie proposed! Awww<3<3<3 That's a picture of my moms amazing flan above!:)
I got some really good gifts! My dad gave me some cash, Mom made me a cute piece of pottery herself and she put together an awesome photo album of pictures of me and my family from when I was a baby till now! I love it!! Roch got me a gift card to Target and her and Rayna both got me some new workout tops! I love them. Here's some pics of me wearing them after working out!;)
Love the bright colors!:) Thanks Roch and Rayna!!
For some reason it hurt REALLY bad this time around. I didn't remember it being too bad on my back, but apparently I was wrong lol.
She finished the outline in 45 minutes and then we took a break but when we started again... woo! It was BAD! All together it was around 4 hours and 15 minutes or so.
She added water, waves, clouds and bubbles to my "tramp stamp" and finished coloring in a lot of that.
And she added a nice big peony to my left side which we couldn't color in yet. It's probably going to take 2-3 hours she said... *sigh* But it's going to be a beautiful bright pink! Can't wait to see the finished product!!:)
Here's what we have so far...
I'll try to get a better picture later:)
When we got back to their house, we watched some of "The Office" The episode where Pam gives birth lol, getting Katie prepared;) and I shared some of her Cheesecake:) So good!!
It's really good! It's not so cardio like her other videos. More strength and toning. It's surprising how much you can use your body to create resistance. It's pretty hard!! My arms are really sore. I do like how it makes you more flexible though:)
Let me give you a little update on how week 5 of Couch to 5k has been! It's different than how all the other weeks have been where you do the same thing all 3 days. Now it changes up.
Week 5, Day 1 -
Warm up walk 5 minutes
Jog 5 minutes
Walk 3 minutes
Jog 5 minutes
Walk 3 minutes
Jog 5 minutes
Cool down walk 5 minutes
Week 5, Day 2 -
Warm up walk 5 minutes
Jog 8 minutes
Walk 5 minutes
Jog 8 minutes
Cool down walk 5 minutes
Week 5, Day 3 -
Warm up walk 5 minutes
Jog 20 minutes
Cool down walk 5 minutes
The crazy part is, I did all of them!! I was shocked that I did the 8 minute intervals, but today I did the 30 minute JM's Yoga dvd, and THEN did the whole jogging for 20 minutes!! I was so proud of myself. I was drenched and out of breath, but I was so happy that I finished it all!:) I don't even want to look at week 6 yet... lol:)
Currently I'm still in second place for biggest loser. BUT, the good news is we added another week because the first week was really just our first initial weigh in, so we want it to be a whole 12 weeks of competition. Which is awesome for me!:)
Anyways, gotta get back to work and eat my orange and banana that I just bought from the Dr. Bear Cafe;)
I'm gonna work my butt off this week!!! My goal is to lose 5 pounds by the next weigh in!!!!:)
Wish me luck!!
Anna
