...and I don't care. I know...horrible way to be so soon in this adventure, but, yeah. It has been a bad week in every way possible for me. Too much to explain, not that you'd want to hear it. Im super stressed for no f'n reason and have become a bottomless pit. I want anything and everything that is bad for me. My motivation is out the window and I feel hopeless. I have been at this for 3 damn years! Maybe this is not something that I am suppose to achieve. I see people do it all the time, and their results are fast and amazing. Not for me! It pisses me off sooo much! I know...you're reading this and thinking how stupid I am...not eating right and all...Like that really going to help my situation, right? Well, I'm sorry. I just don't know what to do anymore. I mean, last week, I put in an amazing workout. What did I get out of it?? I hurt my hips and outer thighs so bad that I could hardly walk!! Throwing off my schedule and everything else. I was going to do my measurements and take the pictures for ya, but thought, ya right!! I know it's only been two weeks, but I feel worse than I did before. I want to scream!!!!
If you have any ideas, tell me. I'm all ears!

The Weekend...
Didn't have an official workout on Friday; just shoveled snow and cleaned it off my van, lol.
Saturday I did an arm workout; push-ups, bench dips, wall push-ups, plank, and balanced on the yoga ball in a plank position (got more of an ab workout on this one, but it all helps).
Sunday was a rest day. I mainly worked on cleaning up the house and doing laundry. I would've done more, but I have a condition where the cartilage around my ribs gets inflamed. It is very painful and hurts to breath. Talk about a bummer. Thankgoodness it doesn't happen very often.
Hope you all had a great weekend! Go Giants!

Today...
...I am SUPER sore. The best feeling EVER! Stairs are a lot of fun, lol.
For my workout today, I played around with my yoga ball, which I recommend EVERYONE get (love it!), and targeted my Abs. I did crunches, Russian Twists, Mountain Climbers, Plank, Leg Lifts......I did more than this, but don't know what they are called, lol. Oh, and I also did 30 min. on the TreadClimber. Not a bad day. :)

Water :)
Water, water, water...oh, and More Water!
When it comes to helping someone "get rid" (remember, I don't want to loose weight...I want to get rid of it. I DO NOT want to find it again, lol) weight, this is the best aid. Protein shakes help too, but this is the all time best. If you drink the right about of water, you will fill full ALL DAY. And I'm not talking about full where you don't want to eat (which you should NEVER do!), but when you are actually eating, you get full faster, thus, eating less.
This is the bottle I use every day. I got it from Target. What really sold me on it is that it has the counter on the lid. I don't know about you, but I like to keep track of how much or little water is going into my body. It helps so much! The bottle holds 20-22 oz, and from what I've learned (especially from living in the desert for four years), is to drink half your weight. So for me, I need to be drinking 76.5 oz or 9.6 glasses of water a day. Nine to ten GLASSES of water is pretty intimidating to me, so this bottle breaks it down to four. A much better number.
Vitamins :)
I take these every day. :)
They really help complete everything that is going on with my body. I've been taking these for about 2 months now. When I was sick last week, I didn't care about nothing (how most of us feel) and I didn't take my vitamins. I actually felt a difference! So what am I sayin'?
TAKE YOUR VITAMINS!
They get your insides healthy & make you feel better!
Food :)
My lunch for today. :)Oven Roasted Turkey & Sharp Cheddar Cheese on Wheat
50/50 Spring Mix Salad with Tomato & Mushroom
Newman's Olive Oil & Vinegar Dressing, Parmesan Cheese, Ground Sea Salt & Pepper
One of the BIG things I learned from my personal trainer, besides great exercises, was- how, what, and when to eat. This is a quick look at what she taught me.
A good, filling breakfast
Healthy snack or protein shake
Carb & Protein lunch (NO CARBS AFTER LUNCH)
Hard Boiled Egg Whites
Protein Shake (about an hour before dinner)
Meat and some short of green veggie (salad, broccoli, spinach, etc)

I was hoping to do two sets, but, as you've guessed, I'm out of shape, so I could only do one, lol. Oh, well. It's WWWAAAYYY better then nothin'! Rule of thumb for any workout, do it 3 times. So, hopefully next week, I'll be able to do two to three.
