Hello, 2012!!

Me on New Years Eve!

HI RAYNA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:-)


Since my sister is one of the few dedicated readers, I had to give her a shout out! I mostly wrote this blog just because she complained! And it's true, it has been awhile since I've written, so I guess it was time!

I haven't had the motivation to write since I was being SO lazy over the holidays! Ugh... I felt so crappy. It's crazy to me that even though I was still consistently working out like I usually do... I was still over eating and gaining weight! Which just goes to show how strict I will have to be on myself for... ever! Pretty much! I don't know if I will ever have a "maintenance mode" lol:-P

With Christmas at the in-laws, then Christmas at my parents, then New Years, then Fogo De Chao, plus ALL the stuff people kept bringing to work... it just wasn't a good week!! There was temptation all around and I was definitely weak. I wish I could be stronger when it comes to telling myself no. But I'm just a food whore. A dirty food slut:( Haha... JK... but seriously...

I did gain... BUT, I really didn't want to log it! I hate taking steps back, so I decided to just wait it out till I get back to my previous weight, then see if I can lose anything from then on. I have pretty much given up hope that I will get to 150 by 1/9/12. But that's ok! I'm still so happy with what I have accomplished. I think my new goal will be to get to 150 by Valentine's Day. Hopefully I can do that!:-D

I was thinking also... I'm only a few pounds away from 150, yet there's a lot of things about my body that I need to improve. Definitely a lot of toning, but there's still more fat to lose! Despite what SOME people say, I am NOT too skinny. I don't know what makes people think that. Especially when they weigh 120 and they're telling me 155ish is too skinny? Ok... that's enough! lol. So once I do reach 150, I might change my goal to 140!:-) We'll see when I get there.

 

I'm not sure if I've put up a picture of my calendar every month, but I do try. And I do fill it out, religiously! It helps me to see what I've done and to be able to look back and see what I did that was good or bad.

Exercise wise, I think I did pretty well! I exercised 25/31 days. I just added it up, and all together I ran about 56 miles in December! Wow!:-D That makes me happy! I love running and I really wish it wasn't so cold because I'd love to go running outside, rather than on the treadmill. Although I'm pretty proud of myself... I ran 8 miles straight on the treadmill yesterday! It was fine, and I barely got tired. It's just the fact that it's boring that gets me!:-/

I'm happy that it's 2012 now and I'm excited for my fresh start! Tuesday  I had an AWESOME day and Wednesday was pretty good too. I'm going to try and do great on my diet from now on, unless it's a special occasion. I will try my hardest NOT to eat anything in the lounge at work. It's my enemy!! :-(

I'll weigh myself soon and see if I have a loss or something. I will update if I do!

Thanks for reading:)
