First Before and After

I know I have been a total slacker when it comes to both this blog, as well as my own...but this blog is constantly in my thoughts and I hope for you all that you CAN make it down any path you choose...making changes for the better and learning that it's okay to be successful and fulfilled. I am on an amazing journey...ne'; transformation and I am enjoying it more and more each day.

New Year, New Decade, New Figure

Happy New Year!!

A new year and a new decade have silently crept up on me, as have about 20 too many pounds! Over the holidays, I have overindulged and have not been exercising. It shows. I even had to go and buy a size bigger pants yesterday just to have something to wear. THAT is discouraging.

My plan is to start fresh on Monday. The plan includes getting back on the South Beach diet and hitting the gym regularly again. 2010 is all about ME!!! I'd like to lose a pound per week - that would get me in bathing suit shape (somewhat) in time for summer.

What are your goals for 2010??

Having A Good Week!

-Packed lunch every day so far.

-Have been drinking more water, but have needed to add those Ocean Spray flavors.....Cranberry Pomegranate. YUM! (Made with Splenda)

-Gym: Yoga Class Monday; Recumbent Cycle Wednesday; Will go to Yoga Class tomorrow, and do some form of cardio Friday. This is the most on-track I've been in six weeks!! YAY!

-With the exception of some brown rice, I've laid off of the carbs this week as well.

-Going to dinner with the gals from church tonight. Mexican. I Googled "Healthy Choices at Mexican Restaurants" and I'm all set to stay on track!!

How is YOUR week going?

Back On The Wagon

Well, I did it. I made a commitment with the local pool.

I have gone each morning - swimming for 30 minutes. That is about all the ankle can take. But it sure feels good to be moving again:)

What about you? Are you moving?

Is This Thing On?

Tap. Tap. Tap. Anyone out there?



I'm going to get this ball rolling again. I need the support!



Well, I haven't been to the gym in a month. Cool Breeze was sick for about two weeks. Then, I had some minor surgery that kept me from being able to lift for two weeks. THEN, Snow White got sick with a nasty sinus infection. Everything went to hell in a handbasket at Casa de Envy!



I am not going to pretend that I am going to do anything about it over the weekend. That's just asking too much. I will, however, commit to getting back into the gym Monday. In addition, I will pack my lunch more than once next week, and I will stop taste-testing the chocolate! I really dread getting on those scales:/



How is everyone else doing?

Is this the beginning of my new commitment? Or a fluke?

Stay tuned!
