Clean Eating Challenge- Final Results

This week has been so great for me eating and staying fit. This challenge was just what I needed to get myself seeing results again. I raised my calorie intake with healthy foods and ended up seeing results just after 7 days. My caloric intake has been at 1300 since I have started my new healthy life, which was fine when I was dropping weight, but then I plateaued, so during this challenge I decided to up my caloric intake to 1500 and drum roll please.....



Neck: 12.5"  (-0.5)
R Arm: 12"  (-0.5)
L Arm: 11.5"  (-0.5)
Chest: 37"  (-1)
Waist: 29"  (-1)
Belly: 37.5" (-1)
Hips: 40.5"  (0)
R Thigh: 24.5"  (-0.5)
L Thigh: 24.5"  (-0.5)
R Calf: 15"  (0)
L Calf: 15"  (0)
166 lbs   (-7)

Holler at it guys and gals... I finally got over that flat road and heading up that hill again! I made some new goals for myself and I really want to share them with all of you. 

Goal #1: Weigh what my driver license says I weigh... 155lbs (only 11 more to go!)
Goal #2: Run 2 races this year (already signed up for 2!)
Goal #3: Do a 30 day clean eating challenge (I start on the 24th!)
Goal #4: Win my weight loss challenge that I started in January (I have 1 month to go!)
Goal #5: Get certified in AFAA (April 5th I re-take my written exam)

So there it is...written for the world to see. My #1 goal is just right around the corner. I can see it. I haven't been 155, since being an adult, since I was 21. This will be a huge accomplishment for me. Thank you all who have supported me and read my crap all the time! You all make me smile and keep me motivated to be the better me!

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. I made it a priority and this is what has come of it so far...                                                       Week 1                                              Week 9 Weight=      -19 lbs                   207                                                   188 Waist=        -4.5"              ...

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...

Tasty Tuesday- My Food for the Week

So this month I decided to try JNL Fusions Meal Plan, and so far I am loving the meals! So I decided to alternate between 2 breakfasts, lunches, snacks, and dinners. That way my budget was low and preparing my meals for the week was a lot easier. My diet is based on a 1300 calorie diet, and these meals are for 1 serving. I thought I would share this weeks recipes with you, hope you try and enjoy like I am.  I have numbered them so you know all the #1's match and all the #2's match what I'm eating for each day. Breakfast #1-Frittata Ingredients - 5 large egg whites - 1 cup almond milk - 3/4 oz Parmesan, grated - 1 medium zucchini  - 1/4 cup sweet bell peppers - 2 tbsp onion, chopped - 1 cup strawberries on side Directions: In a medium bowl beat eggs and milk. Add cheese, zucchini, bell peppers, and onions. Mix well. In a medium skillet over medium heat, add egg mixture and cook for 5 minutes, then finish cooking in the oven on like 450. Have your strawberries on the side! ...
