Standing back up and eats of the day.

I know I been M.I.A for a long long time, and I apologize for that. I have no excuse exept that I gave up.
When I hit (i think) 168.4 I was stoked, thinking finally I'm out of the 170's, then I gained and kept gaining (not much, highest 176). That's when I threw in the towel and gave up. I wasn't moping around all sad and thinking it was the end of the world (which is good right?) I was just not thinking about it having fun and enjoying myself (I still read everyones' blog - I love 'em).
My weight has been up and down from 173 to 176, at the moment I'm 175.6. On one hand I'm happy because I haven't gained a lot of weight, on the other I haven't loss much either.
But today, I woke up I remembered a blogger (I can't remember which one, but will look for it and will find it and give credit to where it belongs ;) saying something along the lines of the hardest part in doing exercise is putting on your shoes, oh boy is she right. I have three weeks without doing any kind of exercise (Jillian Michaels who?)!!! In this crazy summer all I wear are sandals. Anyways back to my point, I woke up thought about that saying and thought "I need to put my shoes on and do something about it". It took me 1 hour and a half to put them on but I did, I grabbed my jumprope and went outside for 20 mins, I also did a few yoga poses. In the end I felt GREAT.
I'm - I just started today -kind of new to yoga. It's an excited new thing to me. Thefew poses I tried were the tree pose, down dog, bow pose, boat pose (which I could only hold for 10 secs), and the warrior II pose. I'm not good at it but I'm going to practice yoga as much as possible because I want to get better at it. I will get better at it and when I'm good I will post pictures of me in the pose :).

Now onto eats of the day (only took a pic of my breakfast):
a really late Breakfast for taking my sweet time putting my shoes on:
2 whole wheat breads with peanut butter, on the side 1/4 of honey dew melon.
late Snack: Perfect Green Monster smoother for this summer weather - 1 cup almond milk, frozen cantaloupe (1/2 cup?), 2 pieces of frozen mango, and ice cubes.
lazy LINNER: (lunch and dinner) 1/2 cup of rice, 1 cup of beans x2

I might have another green monster or yogurt with fruit for a late snack.

Water intake: 60 oz so far but I'm planning to drink some more as the day passes :)


I'm not giving up that easily ;)
I'm kicking 170's in the butt.

Thank you for [still] reading.
Have a pleasant sunday evening.

Monsters, melon, bompers, ice cream, and lollipops

Need I say more?
That's all I had today and not just a little but my fair share. I didnt have one proper meal besides breakfast, the others were sporadic and full of non healthy deliciousness. Tomorrow perhaps? We'll see

weigh in 20

I know this isn't Saturday but I fell asleep before I was planning on. I do have some pics of yesterday's eats :)
Now onto my weight. I gained (.8 oz, brings my weight to 173.8) and despised knowing that I gained I went ahead and ate not very healthy.

I always start my day good with a healthy breakfast and somehow after lunch everything goes south.

Yesterday's eats:
Breakfast 1 green monster - 1 cup of almond milk, 1/2 banana, and a bunch of spinach and 2 peanut butter toasts.

No snack.
Lunch 1 progresso soup and on the side a mango





A few hours after lunch I ate a twinkie,rice and beans, candy chips. No exercise for me again.

Today is another day and I'm going to try my hardest to not do the same mistake as yesterday. I already had a green monter with oatmeal for breakfast but forgot to take a picture of it. I'll take pics of my other eats and post them here later in the day or tomorrow.

Have a happy Sunday!

eh.

I apologize (for the billionth time)for not updating. I had Jury Duty this week, and I know that isn't reason enough but my mind was not in this (so sorry). I've been exercising this week except for yesterday (Thursday) and today. I'm too tired and ate too much I can hardly budge. These past three days I've been eating out for the same reason.
Last weeks' weigh in was 173.0 which is a .2 loss. I'm pretty sure tomorrow's weigh in will be around the same because of the past days. I hope not.
I will have tomorrows weigh in up and some pics.

Thanks for reading.

Weigh in 18

I know today is monday and not saturday. Sorry about that :) This weigh in was not as good as the previous ones. It was BAD like really really bad. The past week I manage to gain 4.6 lbs! I weigh 173.2 and it sucks.
I know exactly why I gained and I sorta don't feel guilty about it because I had fun doing it. Five out of the 7 days I ate out 5 times - 3 with my friends and 2 with my family, didnt work out once this week and pretty much ate everything unhealthy.
This week is a clean start. I'm actually taking pictures of what I'm eating to post them here later on today (regular posting from here on out!). I also have plan doing 30 day shred with my sister at 7 pm, I can't wait for that.

I think this is it for right now. Will be back later with my eats of the day and pics.

Have a great Monday! :)
