April/May Check in

Posted on by RedHeadMess

**I’m late, I know I am a bad person.

My weight has been all over the place the past couple of weeks. I didn’t do any of my goals last month… OOPS! I wanted to eat more veggies, go to more classes, and take measurements of my body. I still have time to start the last one with measurements. The veggie thing is stupid! I literally have cans and frozen vegetables in the house too… I finally got a swimsuit, so hopefully I will take a swim class. BUT that means I have to start shaving my legs more. BOOOOOOOOOOO! And I still really need to use my fasciablaster more. I think I kind of stopped cause I was making new bents in my booty.

MAY GOALS:

  1. Go to the gym everyday to help with my challenge. I get at least 2 off days a week to skip, but that’s only extreme cases.
  2. Find new work out routines to add in once a week, plus swimming.
  3. Try to learn how to reduce my fat intake. It’s out of hand. I really thought when I started my food diary, it was going to tell me my carbs were out of hand. I was waaaaaay wrong.

Weight In!
Near the beginning of April I weighted in at 161.4. And near the end of April I was the lowest I’ve been in forever at 157.3. That was awesome except I gained a crap ton back… 2 issues I have with my numbers are what is fat or muscles?? And the floor isn’t level in the bathroom. SO I never truly know how much I weight. But I’m going to keep pushing forward. I have faith that it will be all worth it in the end.

March/April Check in

Posted on by RedHeadMess

I know I’m a little late for my end of the month goals… but 1 day won’t kill ya lol.

SOOOOO… my first goal of March was to go to the gym more, cause I think I went all of 2 days in February. I went a total of 14 days out of the month! Not bad! That’s a little less than half. I’m going to give myself a gold star! And I’m still going to Zumba every Wednesdays. The instructor, who is amazing, said hi to me randomly at the gym. The group of women on that night are really positive and friendly. I wasn’t expecting it actually. Goal number dos, I’m still doing my food diary. Everyday might not be a 100% right, like while I was in Vegas, BUTTTTT I’m still doing it. It’s getting a little easier for me to maintain my lower calorie count that is now my life… sadface. And last but not least, using my fasciablaster more… that one I’ll say I half got right. I just work out late and I’m tired afterwards… BLAH BLAH BLAH I know… I’m a walking excuse…

April goals!

  1. Eat more veggies! I have been getting better with what I eat, I just need to add more of it. I started taking a multi vitamin too.
  2. Try more classes at the gym. I just found out I can go to other gyms for half the cost I’m paying for the 1 gym I go to now. So I have many many new options!
  3. I’m going to start taking measurements of my body parts. I think it’s healthier to see inches lost instead of focusing so much on weight. Muscles weight more than fat.

NOW FOR THE REVEAL!
On March 5th I weighed in at 165.8 pounds and I weighed myself the other day… 161.4 pounds!! BOOM 4 pounds down! That’s a good month! I haven’t noticed it yet on my body yet. But I’m still pretty proud of myself!! Hopefully this keeps up!

March Goals

Posted on by RedHeadMess

***So every 1st of the month I want to write down all my goals for the month. And at the end of the month, I will review how I felt about said goals!

Goals

  1. Get my ass to the gym more. February was a bad month for me mentally. I want to get back into a regular routine. I started going to Zumba on Wednesdays with a friend from high school.
  2. Doing my food diary everyday! I go through waves of really wanting to do it and getting lazy. I started using MyFitnessPal app again… I FINALLY got my Fitbit to sync my steps with it. I like how it shows me my macros and shows them in pie charts… I like pie…
  3. Use my Fasciablaster after the gym. Plus, 1 or 2 more days a week. I’m already seeing some results from it.

I want to go slow with the goals, because I don’t want to overload myself. If I fail at one I’ll get distracted and stop. I want to add in weight and maybe pictures if I feel brave enough!

Polar Vortex

Posted on by RedHeadMess

Here in the great Midwest, we are having a Polar Vortex. Thankfully it’s over! So I finally went to the gym today… YAY! Shit, I was finally able to leave the house without my face hurting. I started drinking my 100 oz of water a couple days ago. I’ve been doing pretty well at that. Not really hitting the mark but close. I haven’t noticed anything about my body yet like others have mentioned. I’m just peeing more lol. Today was leg day at the gym, I know I’m going to be feeling it tomorrow. The workout plan my “trainer in the making” friend gave me KICKS my ass. I start off with 15 minutes on the treadmill to warm up then on to machines and squats. I weirdly love squats. I just really want that apple/peach/heart butt sooooo bad! But on the positive side, I got my face blaster from Ashley Black!! If you don’t know what or who that is, I highly recommend you check out her website here. I got to blast my butt, that sounds wrong lol, in the sauna without annoying people with the full size fasciablaster. I would have stayed longer but I got a text saying my furnace went out… FML!
