Second week of April

I'm down 7 pounds! AND a dress size! I give 100% credit to the fact that I have been riding again. I started a lease on a horse two weeks ago and I am sore practically daily BUT I am losing pounds and inches. Even my boss at the dance studio noticed!

Meg and I chipped in together for a Wii Fit that is also way more fun than I remember it being. I wish I had it here though... I think I would be more dedicated.

As for The Cake Biz, its a big month for me. My first bridal show is tomorrow, I have a cake every weekend and my orders from Andrew's Bistro have almost doubled.

On the outside employment front I was offered a job, finally, at Riverside Community Care. I will be there resident overnight counselor starting next week. (Thanks to some amazingly glowing recommendations from Meg and Tony).

Well thats it for now... off to bake the night away in preparation for tomorrows show!

Epic Fail

I have in the last month, ok six weeks, been to the gym......ZERO times.

Sad I know. I put back on the 7 pounds I lost. Awesome.

So started over this week. Again, the rules are;

1. Get my fat ass to the gym
2. Stop eating crap
3. Be Dedicated

Stats; 145lbs size 13 (GAG)

Week three and four of Mission Bikini Body 2010

Week three; I only got to the gym once BUT I wore Meg's pedometer at work and found out I walk over 4.5 miles a shift and I take the stairs up and down the floors instead of the escalators and elevators. I have been sticking to me healthy eating, no fast food and no cookies so far. Just a LOT of fruit and deli meat sandwiches. I am having a bit of trouble balancing work and home time. I am so exhausted I barely have time to sleep never mind clean my pit of a house, catch up on laundry and spend quality time with my kids and husband. It has to get better right? Results; Lost another 2 lbs week three making it 9.5lbs lost total.

Week four; Did not get to the gym AT ALL. :( Stuck to the health food and skim milk. Took the stairs, and did not eat any crap. Had one small bowl of mint chocolate chip ice cream one night but followed that up the next day by running the stadium stairs on my break at work. I have noticed that now my size 10 pants are getting a bit big! Results; down another 2 lbs, Total lost after four weeks is 11.5 lbs :)

She rolled....we missed it

Yesterday while I was doing homework at the computer and Savannah was playing on her rain forest mat Ben walked into the living room and said "whoa!". I turned around to see what he was looking at and the cute little baby girl that I had laid on her back about ten minutes ago was now on her belly! We missed the actual roll, so we tried to bait her into doing it again in which she laughed and smiled at us as if to say "your nuts, I'm not doing that on demand".

Diva.

Week two of Mission Bikini Body 2010

So week two I only got to the gym three times last week although I was still able to beat my time. I slipped up one night and had a McChicken from the dollar menu at Mcdonalds. Then I felt shitty after that, cause I had been doing so well. I don't feel too guilty about not getting the gym 5 times last week because I started my new job at Twin River and I easily walk 6-9 miles a night there....in heels. When I got on the scale at the Y I had sadly only lost 1.5 lbs this week, totaling 5.5 so far. This week should be better as I have stuck to my "stop eating crap" rule and have dutifully exercised.

Here's hoping, that bikini I bought is looking better and better every Monday when I weigh in :)
