I’m alive, I promise! Thanks to a CRAZY schedule through the summer, I won’t be blogging more than once a week most of the time. So far, I’ve been hanging in there and managing some healthy-ish choices. I’m not counting Weight Watchers points right now. I’m walking1-3 miles every day. 2-3 times a week I [...]

I’m breaking up with Weight Watchers. I love the program, and it really does work for me, so this is probably a stupid idea… but I just need a break. I’m having an enormous amount of anxiety with the beginning of the summer semester, and I just need a break. The thing is, I’m back [...]

That’s not my stomach… but I wish it was. I’m in a bad place, y’all. I’m making bad food choices on purpose again. I’m barely hanging on to healthy habits. Honestly, being too broke to eat out is the only thing that is saving me right now. This happens every so often, where I fall [...]

When I started running, I was so proud of myself for just getting out there, no matter how slow I was or how silly I looked. When I started seeing friends and contacts with increasing speeds and mileage, I felt… less. When I go to spin class now, I feel on top of the world. [...]

Today I’m concentrating on bouncing back. I started out the weekend in a foul mood, feeling depressed and defeated, but I ended the weekend with a smile. I walked for two hours on Saturday, made good food choices over the weekend, and I’m dressed for spin class today. Too many times I’ve let that sort [...]

I took another spin class yesterday! The class was 45 minutes followed by an optional 15 minutes of ab work, which I also did. The abs section was actually a lot of fun. Three sets of plank and crunches… 30 second plank, 40 crunches; 45 second plank, 40 crunches; 1 minute plank, 40 crunches. I [...]

After last week’s SIX POUND loss, I am feeling really good! I had a great weekend walking with Relay for Life, but I know that this week is going to be a big deal for me. I have a ton of work and school work to do, including another exam and a lab report. I [...]

I LOST SIX POUNDS THIS WEEK! So what do I credit with this significant, party, awesome, amazeballs loss? SPIN! Yes, I only took the one class. No, there is not a significant chance that a single spin class is enough for six pounds of lost weight. Yes, I did do MUCH better with food. Still, [...]
