I am very proud of myself.  I had to work all weekend and with that comes a lot of temptation.. At my work, there is always junk food around.  We also cook big meals on the weekends.  I was able to control my cravings and stay away from the foods.They also made food espically for me so that I could join them. It was a great feeling to be able to control my cravings for the junk!!!!  I also took a few days off from the gym this weekend to let my body rest.  

I am very proud of myself for being aboe to stick to my diet since in the past this has been a huge problem in the past.  

I will keep you all posted on my prgoress after my workout tomorrow

Ok… so I am offically frustrated.  I have having a hard time dropping the weight.  I really don’t know what I am doing wrong.  My workouts are going great and i am seeing results but the scale is really not changing.  I know i shouldn’t be concerened with the scale but for some reason i am.

HELP!!!!!

Just got back from the gym.  It went really well today. Went up in most of my weights.  The only problem that I am having is with my elbow.  I have pain in my left elbow that limits me form doing certain exercises.. skull crushers for one and i love that exercise.  My weight is down another pound and i am happy with that.  I jut wish i could see the weight go down a little faster.  I am happy with where i am but at times it gets really frustrating.  But as they say….. "Slow and steady wins the race"  I am going to take it slow so that this time there is no failing at my goal.  I know for me that if I change too much too quick… i will not stick with it.  I know I need to increase my cardio but for right now i don’t want to push myself too much.  Going out for dinner tonight with friends and i am not going to cheat.  All good stuff for me!!!!!

Well I made it throught another set of night shifts and kept the eating really clean.  I find that these are the hardest sometimes cause at 3am… the last thing I want to eat is chicken, sweet potatos or salad.  I have found that if i keep my protein up during the night…. I am less likely to cheat.  I have also been really good with the training during these shifts.   I am seeing some gains…. they are small but they are motivating me.  If I can see them with only really sticking to clean eating for the last month… than I am totally pumped for what the next few months will bring.

   I am off to the gym after I get off this morning…  around 7am.  Should be interesting!!!!

I will keep you posted!!

Hello All,

I am currently sitting at work on the night shift… eating a spinach salad and drinking water.  I am finding the first little bit of my training and eating hard but i am slowly easing into it.  I am happy with my progress with the weights but sometime i wish that i could see the instant results, even thought i know i can’t.  I hope that this time i can acheive my goal!!!
