Whoa It's Been a Min.

Wow it has been such a long time since I have logged in here and write a post. I am such a slack ass. Well a slack ass when it comes to blogging...I however have NOT been slacking in the weight loss area. I am currently 223 pounds! I believe that is almost, if not a 10 pound loss since my last post a month ago. YAY!


Also since my last post I have finished the Couch 25k program. I finished that on Monday of this week! This morning I got up and still ran for 30 mins. but I increased my speed a bit. It was super tough this morning for some reason...but I did it! I downloaded the Spotify app. so I was able to created a workout play list on there that helped. I am considering buying the app just to help with my workouts b/c I really need motivating music to move...and I believe it's probably worth the $5 a month. I don't own an ipod. I own a "cheap" Colby music player...that gets the job done...I love it. But it's really not easy to use and interactive. You just load a song/podcast and it plays. Period. lol I'm not knocking it...but it's not worth buying songs and stuff.


Thanksgiving is this week. Yeah I have a plan. First of all I will be eating lots of veggies and I am allowing myself to have as much turkey (without skin) as I want. I am also allowed on serving of "starchy" items such as mac n' cheese and whatnot. I am also going to get up and run in the morning. I actually am starting to like running. I mean it isn't EASY...but I do like it and I love how it makes me feel when I'm done.


And since Friday is black Friday I plan to buy a Wii if I can get one @ a good price. I think a Wii will help me with my fitness goals. I want to do more things that are active and not just me sitting on my ass. I mean mind you I still love TV...I always will....but I need to do more to move my ass! And since my husband got hurt at work he hasn't been as active...so I need to find ways to keep my butt moving!


That's pretty much it that's going on with me. Still losing weight...not gonna stop. I absolutely LOVE myfitnesspal and I do believe my mindset is changing (or has change???) when it comes to food. I am honest to goodness on a healthy lifestyle journey...period!
