Amanda's Reset

I am going to be heading home and back to fast food alley in a few days. I am nervous with all the beer that will be drunk and that helps lead to poor diet choices as well. Nothing beats a large hawiian pizza when you have a hang over. I also have a lot of running around to do and it so easy to hit up a drive through. I hope that I will be able to stay on track and hopefully squeeze in a workout or two. I still want to lose another 5 pounds by the new year. About a pound a week st...

I am still at camp. Been doing relief so wondering around 3 different rigs in 3 weeks. I have been doing really well working out this shift. Only one time had 3 days off in a row. I bought the Jillian Micheals 3 DVD box set. It has the Yoga Meltdown, 30 day Shred and Banish Fat Boost Metabolism. I tried the Yoga Meltdown first and it hurt my shoulders but was a pretty good cardio workout for a yoga video. I did the 30 day Shred about 4 or 5 times and I like it, could feel it working

So I was out of camp for about 9 days. Did not have a single healthy good day when it came to food. Did not eat for a few of them at all!!! I am back in camp now and other then having a few unscheduled days off I am glad to be here. Made sure I only bought healthy food with me and the girl I am doing relief for has some new excerise videos and a scale here so I have everything I need to really kick ass and lose a few more pounds this next couple weeks. I have not weighted this 180...

I failed to pack a half decent lunch today. I am so limited right now on what I can eat because my mouth is so sore. As I rushed out the door I grabbed a jar of apple sauce and that was it! I managed to choke down about 1/2 a cup all day and did not even drink a lot of water. I did make an extra point of walking more today around the site I work at. I used to love fiber1 or quaker garnola bars for snacks or some mixed nuts but gonna have to find a way to get more liqid nutrie...

Well this week has been a little different. I have had 4 days off and since I got braces put on 3 days ago I have really enjoyed not working. It is impossible to chew anything so I have been on a liquid diet and soft food only. I made a great vegie soup yesterday and will be searching for more recipies. It should help me to lose weight quicker and maybe eat healthier. Keep me away from the fast food for a few days :) On Monday I am going to be commuting to work for an hour and a half twice a

Well by some miracle I managed to lose a few pounds, shocking the hell outta myself. I was visiting friends up in Port McNeil and Zeballos. I had a hell of a good time! Did not eat a whole lot of healty food, but sure got lots of walking done and helped my friend to install floors which was mainly moving the boxes. I have still not done my work out video or any weights or swimming which are my target workouts. I am glad I am back in town and will be able to update more often not fighting wi...

Day 1 (again)
Okay so new commitment. I really want this, I have the power. I did do a great job of eating lots of vegies today. I also managed some how to finish eating just over my daily calorie limit by 15. WOW. Not so much excerise today though, unless you count housework. I do love this website, I am so happy I found it. I am going to try to use the community more this time and would love to have some people to talk to for motovation!
