Getting Healthy

Weight: 197 Bust: 40  Waist:35  Hips: 46 I’ve been dreading this post all day, well, all week actually.  I can’t believe that it’s been 8 weeks already!  Has it really?  Can I rewind time and add a few more weeks.. like I dunno.. 8!?!  I absolutely love posting on here every week.  I love sharing [...]

Some weeks you rock it; some weeks you ride it out.  This week was the latter.  You know, sometimes it seems like things are really bad, otherwise I’d be doing “better” at this.  In truth, it’s that things are very busy and have been super emotionally intense over the last couple months, from sleep to [...]

Weight: 198.4 (-1lb!)  Bust: 41  Waist:36  Hips: 46 (my inch changes were so close, I just kept them the same this week) It may be a lil dark but I don’t mind.. I’m wearing shorts. You guys don’t need to see details..heh So I was just looking over my weight loss for the entirety of [...]

This week was a vast, swirling, emotional roller-coaster.  It was announced that my company is hiring a new director, who I will be reporting to, so I’m getting a new boss.  That’s going to be an adjustment—I love my current one.  It could certainly be good news, but for the moment it was a shock.

True to my word, I kicked it up a notch this week.  Here was the schedule: Monday: Hike with roommate Tuesday: 40 minute intervals of running and walking, two sets upper body weights, crunches Wednesday: Walk at lunch (I think?) Thursday: 45 minute intervals, 1 set of weights for each muscle group (upper + lower) [...]

Weight: 201 Waist: 37″ Hips: 46″ Bust: 41″ (Minus 4” total! Woohoo!) Greetings!  It’s cherry blossom time in Washington D.C.  The sights are beautiful and the aroma is amazing!  There’s nothing like a walk down town with Keith to get in some exercise and quality time.  The weather was a slightly humid 80 degrees on [...]

This week has been a lot more difficult than the previous ones.  For one thing, I was working this past weekend in Seattle, so Sunday was kind of a bust, exercise-wise.  I relaxed and rejuvenated with a massage that day though, so I started the weekend off strong on the wellness scale. The Good: – [...]

Weight: 210.8 (this morning) You Better Werk! This week I started something new, something I haven’t done in Getting Healthy in the past.  I’m “working out.”  By working out, I mean approximately 10-15 minutes of stretching each morning.  My lower back has been killing me, and so I’ve been starting my morning with a smattering [...]

Weight: 201 Waist: 38″ Hips: 47″ Bust: 43″ Did anyone else notice that it was a full moon week? Well, it was a pretty rough week for me. As all you ladies know every 28 days or so our bodies go through some drastic changes. Physical pains and out of the norm emotions can sometimes take over. [...]
