Monday Weigh In- Week 12 Complete

Well I can tell you one thing... Even if I didn't lose a pound this week I'm feeling pretty happy with my results! Here are this weeks stats and my pictures. (I had a request to post all of them in order)

Week 4:                         Week 12:
Weight= 204lbs            Weight= 187lbs
Chest= 42.5"                Chest= 38.5"
R Arm= 13.5"                R Arm= 13"
L Arm = 13.5"                L Arm= 12.5"
Waist= 44.5"                 Waist= 40"
Hips= 44"                      Hips= 41.5"
R Thigh= 27 3/4"           R Thigh= 26 "
L Thigh= 27"                  L Thigh= 25.5"


My stats today compared to my stats in week four is incredible, losing a total of 15.75 inches off my body and of course 33 pounds from the beginning! I keep looking at the newest picture and can't believe that's me...not sucking in either! I feel so confident and sexy again and I seriously just want to keep going. I have come so far these last 3 months that I have to pat myself on the back for the things I have achieved so far. The only thing I was disappointed in myself for was that I didn't complete my AB Challenge, but here's to a new month and I will be completing it this month. So next month I will have a "Sexy Arms" workout for August. 

I think this month I will be focusing on my strength training more than my cardio. I LOVE my cardio I think too much so I asked my brother to help me get into weights a little more. Hopefully it will help shed some more inches off and help me get swimsuit ready for this gorgeous weather we have had! I look up to him so much for fitness goals. I don't think he realizes it, but if you need a boost in your life just talk to my brother. I have told him before he should be a life coach. He's pretty much the one who kicked my ass into high gear and for that I will always be grateful for him. 

Alright, enough of the sappy shit...my goals this month:

*Complete my AB Challenge
*Lose 10 lbs
*Fit into my size 9/10 jeans and shorts

I know I can do this! You can too! Never give up just keep moving forward. I have to remind my self that if I have an off day just come back swinging harder. And don't forget to reward yourself for your achievements, whether it be fitness or not. I feel like sometimes, especially women, we forget to do that, so buy those new shorts for the 10 lbs you lost or have a beer for the 1200 calories you just burned. It's really ok! You should always be proud of the things you accomplish! Hope you have a great week! GO PLAY OUTSIDE!

Before & Afters... Amazeballs

So my weigh in this week is still the same at 172. I did lose 1/2 in in each leg, but that's about it this week. I would like to think that my muscle mass is what's taking over, but I really don't know. I feel thinner each week, and really that's all that matters! Not to mention I finally reached my size 10 jeans! Which brings me to this blog... I know once a month you get to see my body transform, but I wanted to see how different my body looked in some of my old clothes. OH EM GEE this was so much fun! December 2011:   Dress size 14/16 You can't even tell in this after photo, but all that fabric in the stomach has about 2 inches from it to my belly. It also make me look like I have NO BOOBS at all! August 2012:  Dress size 12 I look like a sausage stuffed in that dress! GAH! Look how much longer it is on me now. (Way more appropriate) I even have to take this in just a tad in the chest. I love this dress so much more now than looking back! Wedding Day 2012:  Dress...

Easy Chicken Salad

If you really want an easy dinner.. Nothing is easier than a chicken salad! Especially when Costco makes already cooked grilled chicken strips! I really hope I don't have to show or really tell you how to make this salad....but I'll tell u what I have on mine: 4 c. Baby spinach Less than 1 c. Iceberg lettuce 4 grape tomatoes 1/3 c. Cucumber 2 mini bell peppers 1 hard boiled egg 3oz of the chicken 265 calories w/o dressing...but here's a tip that I love!!!! Always have your dressing on the side, dip your fork in your dressing and then get a huge bite of veggies! It really does cut the dressing back to where you are only eating what's necessary! It's the only way I eat salad now! Let me know how you like it! Goodnight lovelies!

9 Week Update

It really is amazing what you can achieve when you put your mind to it. The last 9 weeks I have changed my eating habits, portion sizes, and added more time to work out in my schedule.
