Day Three: 14 Day Diet and Cleanse

Well I got up with my regular routine. As soon as I went to the bathroom I stepped on the scale and I lost 3 lbs. After the night I had last night. I kept on going to the bathroom and pooping but this wasn't the regular poop it was worst. I am not gonna say but you can think what is worst than # 2.  I feel a lot better today, I ate breakfast and took my vitamin and around 11:30 I'll take the first of the 2 Quick Trims for today.

Day Two: 14 Day Diet and Cleanse

This has been a ok day. I did cheat at the end of my day by having a little slice of pie. I am pushing myself and I am focused. I am writing in my food log, drinking a lot of water, more than I need. It's getting easier for me to track what I eat if I just eat at home and avoid going out to eat and not eating at fast food. I have been doing good about avoiding this. I can't go out to eat for a while, not until I have everything under control and that is going to take a long time.

New habits to advoid the bad

Portion Control is a big problem in my diet so I am hoping to fix this slowly so that I can have them stick.

Trying to figure it out

In my heart and deep down I know what the answer to my question is about Tom. Well tonight he called, I answered and I said hello and he said hi baby baby cakes. My feelings for him are getting stronger and I feel he may be the one but right now wants to be a priest. I pray to ask for a sign to have him out of my mid so that I can stop thinking about him. But by the sound of how he is with me is that he won't survive the seminary. He still does things that if he wasn't in the Seminary.

Let's say if this doesn't work out for him and we were a couple I can see myself marring him. My feelings are even stronger knowing I don't know what is gonna happen in the future. I am still confused and trying to figure it out. How can I not if keeps on giving me these signs that he likes me. When he is still wanting to become a priest.

Journey ot a Marathon

I still want to run a marathon one day but I have to start small like run a few 5K's and so on. When I get a job and I am able to join the Team in Training team then I will be able to train for a Half-Marathon. Also when I am fit and able to do a circuit training workout with a personal trainer to kick my butt into shape hardcore. I have to work my way up to it.

Day One: 14 Day Diet and Cleanse #2

Today has been a good day. I ate good and took my Quick Trim for the day until I go to bed. have been going to the bathroom a lot which is good cause my system is being flushed out. I am not eating past 8:00 p.m. anymore. That is gonna be one of my new life habits. I will eat before 8 and nothing after. Oprah and Khole of what I read do this. I drink a lot of water today. More than 8 glasses. I am feeling a little lighter since I have been going to the bathroom a lot.

Losing weight has 2 meaning. The fist one when I goggled it was eating healthy and exercising and there is the other side to it. of how does the body lose wight the weight is by going to the bathroom by peeing or pooping.

I am looking into weight loss tools such as food scales and the Fit & Fresh food storage containers. I was looking through Sparkpeople and they have 4 different kinds of food storage containers. The Fit & Fresh Smart Portion Lunch Kit/Fit & Fresh Meal on the Go Combo Kit/Fit & Fresh Smart Portion Prep Kit/Fit & Fresh Gourmet Cuisine Kit. This is something I need to help me with my portion control.

I also started keeping a food log. I haven't worked out yet but I will do some weight training as soon as I get off. I am gonna be focusing on my upper body. No cardio yet cause I am taking it slow so that I don't give up.

Day One: 14 Day Diet and Cleanse

This is day one of my new health plan and I took my first 2 pills of Quick Trim Iso Burn. I am drinking lots of water. I also took my One-A-Day Vitamin as usual. I have a positive mind and I am confident if I take it one day at a time I will stay on the wagon. I still have to exercise do 30 minutes of cardio and weight training and I have 2 more Quick Trim Iso Burn pills to take and before bed time I have 4 Iso Cleanse pills.

No more Diets. Now it's a Health Plan.

I start my new health plan on Monday. Got my Quick Trim 14 day cleanse and Extreme Burn from GNC. Now for 3 days I have to get ready for my new life by watching what I eat and start exercising on a daily basics. I am confident that I can stick to this new lifestyle. I just have to take it one day at a time and put a lot of focus in starting my new lifestyle. I can't give up.

Wake up Call

I was watching The Dr.'s this morning and I got a wake up call. I saw how much fat there is in cheeseburger and all I have to say is that I have to remind myself of what I saw this morning. I am starting to give up on fast food like Taco Bell. I have to stop eating processed cheese. It's makes stuff taste better but when I had Veggie slices it was the same and I lost weight.

Instead of using butter at home I use Smart Balance Onega 3. It's healthy for the heart and better for my health. Then for yogurt I have Yoplait. To curb my craving I chew Extra Sugar free gum. The Spearmint is my favorite. I am taking small steps to end my bad habits and that will lead to bigger changes.

Stopping the excuses

Queen Latifah,Monique, Kelly Osborn,Beth Chapman. These woman have all lose weight. They are all skinny. Why can't I do this and I can't. I don't know what my problem is that I can't be focused on eating healthy and exercise. I can't figure out what is stopping me from focusing on my health. If my problem is my laziness then I have to figure out what I can do I change this.

Diet Pills

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I have used many different kind of products in the past and the one that has worked for me was Hydroxycut and now I am about to get Quick Trim which is a product that Kim and Khloe Kardashian used to lose weight. I wanna see if this will be something that I like and I can use on a daily basics. I know Khloe also exercised for 45 minutes, 5 days a week. I am on the other hand is going to take it slow and try and see if I can be committed to working out and eating healthy. I have to make the effort and quit with the BS excuses I keep telling myself.

What will Week 2 bring me?

I have been getting a lot of physical activity in. Exercise and moving around. Last week was a bad week but I am hoping that this coming week is better. I have a craving for sweets and I am trying to fight it. Since there is no sweets in the house I can't eat anything. This is like torture but I know I can fight it and let it pass. I gotta keep telling my self that I don't need it and hoping that will stick in my brain.

I need to focus on what I eat and track that and stay between my calories I need for the day which is 16oo calories and get in physical activity weather it be walking in my neighborhood,going to the gym and also I need to get in weight training.

California Scale

On a scale of 1 to 10 on how happy when I visit my sister in California is definitively be a 10. On a scale of 1 to 10 how happy I am here living in Michigan is a 7. I don't know what I would rate living there but I will when I move there in the near future then I will be able to rate it.

I am open to new things in my life and moving to California will have to be the place for me.

The wrong way

A while back Tom had told me that he doesn't have feelings like I do for him. I don't remember what he excatly said but meaning is that He doesn't like me in a why I like him but he doesn't know that. When he told me that I said yeah I like you as a friend. But what I don't get is that before he went into the seminary he would flirt with me but maybe I took it the wrong way. I am trying not to think about him cause knowing that he is gonna be a priest I know I don't have to think about me hooking up with him.

Digital Food Scale

I need to buy a digital food scale to help me with my portion control. It's gonna be hard to get into the habit of eating the proper portions. I bought a calorie book and now all I need is to take things slow and and focus and write down when I eat and track my calories,fat grams, etc... I also am starting back to drinking my 8 glass of water.

It's a start......Small steps

I don't get it. I seen Tom yesterday it's like he is hardly changing. I still have feeling for him that I gotta stop. I gotta focus on my Career. That and my weight loss are #1.

Well I didn't do what I wanted to do today but I did my upper body. I did biceps,triceps,butterflies, Shoulders, and abs. I forget to write in my food journal and I stayed up late last night and eat bad but at least I am making a little change by exercise. I know that I don't have a boyfriend and I am not engaged I have the thought in my mind of not being a fat bride or to put it in nicer terms a plus size bride. I want to be able to walk into any store and not think about my size. I hope once I start to lose weight that my feet will get thinner there are a lot of cute shoes I like and would like to get and can't cause of my wide feet.

My Journey to my first Marathon

You gotta learn to walk before you can run. Meaning that I have to start small by walking to build my endurance so that I am able to jog and then being able to run for a long period of time. This isn't a new goal of mine. I want to start to run a 5k then step it up to a half Marathon and run a full marathon. It's going to take a lot of hard work but I have to focus and put my mind to it.

Well this coming week is my first week of starting a new routine and my plan for this week is to start off walking for 15 minutes on Monday then on Tuesday rest/weights,Wednesday is 3o minutes, Thursday rest/weights, Friday 30 minutes, Saturday and Sunday is rest/weights. This is a simple plan that will get me started

Along with walking I have to start eating healthy.I am trying to find a way to start but every time I do I fail. So my bad habits of being lazy and not exercising and horrible eating habits are hard to break. I gotta find a way of fixing these and not having them come back again in while I know they will.

Game Time

Well on Saturday, September 12 is my yearly trip to the Big House. I am excited. This is another thing that makes me happy. I don't know how many times I ahve been to a game but I do know my first game was when my older sister was in college there. Now it's going through a change with is still being the largest stadium in the NCAA. There is not a greater feeling of being in the big house and cheering on the Wolverines. Last year I was at the Utah game and a woman was going to her seat and she was amazed and said "This is the Big House" and I was thinking hell yeah and even though Michigan didn't have a good year last year this year is going to a good start with a win against Western Michigan. GO BLUE!!!!
i've been going since

Making the effort

I got a wake up call today when I went to Cranbrook for a walk with my friend Jenny. We went from garden to garden and I was out of breath and it was hard for me to walk after a while and also how out of shape I am. Now I need to get myself in gear and wake up, have breakfast and go for a walk for 15 minutes. I need to set a routine so that I can follow it every day and make a EFFORT to stick to a plan and lose this weight. I don't know what my problem is. Why can I follow through at something (such as weight loss) and finally lose this weight. I hope I can find a way to stop this cycle of thinking and just get to a plan that will work.

My $230,000 Dream

A couple nights ago I had a dream that I was at a casino and I won $230,000 and so I looked it up a few seconds ago and here is what is says on dreammoods.com....

Money
~~~~~~~
To see or win money in your dream, indicates that success and prosperity is within your reach. Money may represent confidence, self-worth, success, or values. You have much belief in yourself. Alternatively, dreaming about money, refers to your attitudes about love and matters of the heart. It is frequently a symbol for sexuality and power.

Casino
~~~~~~~
To dream that you are in a casino, signifies the risk-taker within you. If you are a reserved or passive person, then the dream suggests that you should take a chance. If you are not, then it implies that you need to make a more informed decision instead of relying on fate.

Add on

I also don't have a have a regular daily routine. I get up at different times and eat at different times. It's hard to develop a routine. I need to get up early, eat a helathy breakfast,exercise and keep active through out the day.

I am finding out my problem spots and I have to find ways to eliminate them from my life.

Diets

I am gonna look in the Raw Food Diet and also other healthy diets that look appealing to me. I hate eating the way I do everyday. Unhealthy and boring.
