Day 3- Spin Class

NOTE: I've decided that I will not be having a "cheat day" until Thanksgiving, that's ten days straight no cheating. I hope to weigh 118 Thanksgiving morning. At that point, I'll decide when my next cheat day will be :p

November 20, 2013 : 120.8 lbs this morning; I've gained since yesterday, but hoping it's normal fluctuation. I won't get too frustrated just yet.

9 am breakfast: One slice whole grain bread w/ peanut butter
11 am snack: 25 almonds
1pm snack: 1 fruit and nut bar
4pm snack: small bowl honey bunches cereal
5:30pm: 1/2 scoop adrenaline pre-workout

6:15: SPIN CLASS @ Gold's Gym My Spin Class FB

7:20 Cafe Rio - Here's where it gets hard. I want to continue going out to eat with my friends, but the challenge is choosing healthier options and not giving into temptation! Today I got the Wednesday Special, Chicken Tostada, but with a wheat tortilla, and without cheese or beans. I substituted sour cream for guacamole. I also only used 1/2 of a small house dressing container, instead of the full thing. All together, the meal probably still wasn't the best, but my combined choices almost cut the total calories in half! (Even more, if you consider that I subbed soda for water)

Day 2 - Power Pump

I followed the advice of my Spin instructor last night and went to bed starving. It's funny how my body has adjusted to expect popcorn, ice cream, or sour patch kids late at night! Peppermint tea just wasn't cutting it. But, the hunger was worth it, because I woke up this morning weighing 120.1! That's 1.7 pounds lighter than yesterday!! I realize that I probably won't see that much weight loss overnight ever again, but it was a great motivator to keep it up. :)

9am breakfast: One slice of whole grain toast w/ peanut butter
10:30 snack: 25 almonds

Day One-Leg Day

So, I woke up this morning feeling absolutely tortured that I was going to have to step on the scale. Knowing that yesterday would be my last day eating whatever I wanted to, I binged. French toast, cookie butter and crackers, Sunday dinner, popcorn, all that stuff. Tasted great, but I paid the price for sure! I weighed in at 121.8 this morning, more than ever before. Took me an extra hour of depression sleep to get over it, but now I'm feeling alive and ready to work for my results!

Today, November 18, 2013, marks three months since I married the love of my life! The past 90 or so days have been amazing and wonderful, BUT I must admit it's not as easy to "diet" when you're living with an extremely active and hungry hunk of man ;) I've slowly but surely gained some newlywed weight that I am determined to shed  in the next 90 days! Unfortunately, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's all lie within the next three months, so this will NOT BE EASY, but I've procrastinated this one too many times already and I know that if I can work up the motivation to be better during the holiday season it will be that much easier to keep up the healthy habits in 2014.

I am 21 years old, 5'3'', and according to my Spin instructor's fancy gadget, hanging on to about 21.5% body fat. This morning I weighed 121.1 and I have been fluctuating in that range for over a month now. My starting goal is to weigh 115 lbs by January 17th, and most importantly, to still weigh 115 lbs by Valentine's Day 2014. I will occasionally post my typical diet and workout regimen, and even post (embarrassing) progress pics once a month to keep me motivated. Here goes!
