I had zero energy today and couldn't finish my TurboFire workout but I am still glad that I gave it my all to get half way through it.

162.2

It has been a long time since I have blogged. I had gained more weight and reached 173 lbs. In the past month I have lost some weight but I am working on being more disciplined so I am giving blogging about my progress another try.

168.2

So I have lost 1.8lbs in my first week.

Although if you have been paying attention you know that I lost that immediately and basically just stayed the same all week. I ate too many cookies, too many chips, and drank a  Dr. Pepper almost every day. Really I was not on any sort of a diet for week one I was just working out.

I have decided to go Paleo for week two. I have done it in the past with great success and ease. Hopefully since I have said it on here I will actually stick with it and not cheat.

Finding out if Fage really is the best Greek yogurt. I'll admit that it is pretty good but I'm not sure it is worth the 29g of carbs.

I'm working on it...

The Befores

I took some pics of what I currently look like. This is obviously really embarrassing to share but even more embarrassing is how ashamed I feel that I have allowed myself to get this large.

And just because I love you, I found some old "before" shots from way back in 2011. Technically they were before I got down to 146 but really they are just before I got really fat.

It is unfortunate because I found the 149 pics before I took my current pics and when I saw them I was all "geez, I was big!" I honestly expected to take my 169 lb pics and see no difference between my 149 pics. Why I thought 20 lbs wouldn't be noticeable I have no clue but let's just say that I was very surprised to see how much 169 lbs looks like.

169.4

I got on the scale, you're welcome. Now I'm going to go do some Fire 60 and try to get that number down.

P.S. right before I jumped on the scale I went to the bathroom for the first time in 3 days. I am convinced that I am fat because I am literally full of s!&*

Avoidance

I am avoiding the scale and thus procrastinating my daily workout. I was up to 168.6 yesterday and I imagine I will be up again today despite the fact that I worked out yesterday and worked an 8 hour shift. I wouldn't be so concerned except that when I got home from work at 10pm I ate a big tuna sandwich plus chips and a Dr. Pepper, oh and don't let me forget dessert- 3 Lindor truffles and 4 Newman O's.

I know I need to just get on the scale and own up to my bad eating but I just don't want the bad news.

I'm still at work. I have the awesome 1:30-10 pm shift (I work retail BTW) my knees are hurting so bad from all the working out and just plain working (which is practically a workout.) I want some peanut M&Ms....that would make my knees feel better. Yeah, definitely they would not make them feel better. I will stay strong and eat a fruit leather instead.

Dear Work, Please stop serving delicious meals that counteract all my exercising. The chicken wasn’t so bad and neither were the steamed veggies but I prob should have skipped the mashed potatoes and fried asparagus. Thanks for understanding, Chubby Employee

166.8!

I know that is a high number. I know I am still 7 lbs overweight but today I am happy.

Day 1

Weight = 170.0 lbs

I worked out A LOT (Fire 60, Fire 45EZ, High & Tight), I started a blog (call me Captain Obvious), and I made a food log. I've used a food log in the past with great success and so today I made a new version which I will share later but for now here is a teaser

[misscrazylegs]

Ummmm.....Hello....

I have one pair of pants that fits. I own about 25 pairs ranging from size 4-10. My one pair is an Old Navy size 10, I have worn them almost everyday since I had to upgrade to a size 10 a few weeks ago. It grosses me out that they get worn so much but I refuse to get complacent at this size. I will fit into my old jeans. My jackets will once again be able to button up without my boobs threatening to snap said buttons. I will be able to sit down without feeling my pants uncomfortably get stuck in my belly rolls. More than I want to be comfortable in my clothes I want to be comfortable in my body and I want my crappy  crazy knees to stop hurting because they are carrying around so much extra weight.

Well, now I feel embarrassed for admitting all that.
