Day 3

Day 03 — Your favorite television program 

I love tv, one of the huge reasons why I am the size of an apartment complex. My ultimate favorite tv show is probably Biggest Loser, I haven't missed a season since it came out

Some of my other favorite tv shows are:
One Tree Hill,
Bachelor/Bachlorette
Grey's Anatomy
Private Practice, 
The Doctors/Dr. Oz
and my newest favorite: Secret Life of the American Teenager.

Day 2..a day late

Day 02 — Your favorite movie 

Sorry, I am a day late, yesterday was pretty busy!

This was a tough question to answer, I have a ton of favorite movies!!  My most recent movie that I seen that I fell in love with was: Ramona and Beezus.  I read all the books when I was a kid so I was pretty excited when the movie came out. It brought back a lot of memories from my childhood, which I love in a movie. I love movies that make me feel good, or that can make me laugh which this movie did both.

Day 1/30 My Favorite Song

This is a hard one, if you know me at all than you know that I jump from song to song that I like. Currently I guess my favorite song is: "Laughed until we Cried" by Jason Aldean
Every time I hear it I want to tear up.  I love the lyrics.
The part of the song that says:

Just the other night the baby was cryin’
So I got out of bed rocked her awhile
And I held her tight
And I told her it would be all right
And my mind went back to a few years ago
When we tried so long
We almost gave up hope
And I remember you
Comin' in and tellin’ me the news

Oh man we were livin’
Goin’ crazy in the kitchen
We danced and screamed and held each other tight
We laughed until we cried

Really hits me, before I started this weight loss journey or whatever this is we had tried for over a year to get pregnant still nothing..I want so much for this to happen, for my husband and I to have a moment like that.
If you haven't heard this song than you need too!

Slow Progress...

I am kind of discouraged I haven't lost any progress since I last posted and I guess I that is why I haven't posted?

I have been pretty good about staying under my calories every single day and the past week I have been exercising really hard and have been trying to burn 1000+ calories a day and still the scale has not been moving. I feel smaller however which I would rather look less than what I weigh anyway.

Well anyways..I want to be a better blogger so I ran across a 30 Day blog challenge. :)

I will not touch the scale..I will not touch the scale...

I am slowly becoming obsessed with the scale..thankfully every time I hop on I have lost weight. (-.08 since yesterday :]   )   but I know that as soon as I am not losing even a little every day I will start to get discouraged so I am taking a vow not to touch the scale until next Friday when it is our 3rd weigh in for the S2S challenge. If anyone hears of me standing on the scale then get after me. :)

Sweet Serendipity

I absolutely LOVE music and a lot of music has hit me personally lately.  Here is part of one of my current favorite songs.

And I’m doing just fine
I’m always landing on my feet
In the nic of time
And by the skin of my teeth
I ain’t gonna stress
Cause the worst ain’t happened yet
Somethings watching over me
Like Sweet Serendipity
Sweet Serendipity
-Lee Dewyze

this song fits perfect in my life right now. Somehow things magically work out...bills weren't going to be able to be paid for the month and I got extra work and my husband got a bonus check...things like this happen to me all the time and I can't explain it. 

I know that I have already blogged tonight, but I got back on because I can't sleep, and am craving something munchy so i am keeping my hands busy :)

I had a really good workout tonight and literally felt my heart beating in my head...and now I have a huge migraine.  Staring at a bright screen probably isn't helping. haha. More tomorrow! Goodnight :)

I made it another day..

It seems to be getting just a bit easier day by day..This the longest I have been able to exercise daily and eat right. I have been feeling better too and even been noticing small changes.  My stomach doesn't seem quite as bloated, and my pants seem a tiny bit baggy (who knows..maybe I just stretched them out ;]  ) Workouts seems to be getting easier as well and I have to work harder to burn more calories...bad news. I am coming short on my goal and by predictions I won't be able to "burn off" 10lbs by V.Day  Maybe tomorrow I will get in a good workout in the morning and night and walk my dog for some added burned calories.  I only burned 702 Calories and I now need to average about 760 calories a day for the next 39 days..ending on Valentine's day.

I am participating in a Snowflakes to Sunshine Challenge and our first weigh in is tomorrow.  I know it will be higher than my original weigh in which is discouraging but on the brighter side I am losing the water weight that I put on and I am officially down 2ish pounds which doesn't sound like much and I get kind of discouraged sometimes..so I put it in perspective. Here is a picture of 2lbs compared next a standard size basketball.

don't feel so discouraged about your weight loss..big or small it's still a loss :)
