Day 2: Give me strength...already??

Well I was told old habits are always "hard to break", and there are a few of my old habits I wish I could.

I followed my meal plan yesterday but was tested when it came gym time.

I kept pushing it off..and pushing it off until I fell asleep at 7:30pm and woke up this morning at 5:00am (thanks to my most reliable alarm clock...my bladder)

So I got up, woke the boys up had them get ready:

Decided breakfast was going to be Kashi Cereal and a bananna

I made the boys eggs, hashbrowns, and turkey sausage. They didn't have school today so I packed it up to take with them to their fathers house. (of course they forgot it so looks like we know whats for dinner).

For lunch I made myself a chicken salad (cooked the chicken in EVOO) and Ms. Dash.
It will have
Salad mix
Radishes
Green Peppers
Carrots
Cucumbers
Hard boiled Eggs

I didn't get to my goal of 100oz of water yesterday. I came in shy at 87 oz. so today I am going to try for one hundered.

I'm probably going to do a bunless veggie burger with broc on the side for din din.

BUT TODAY I AM WOKRING OUT and going to try to push myself to do two classes in a row for "punishment" not attending yesterday.

Hope everyone has a great day!!!

Day 1...Here we GO

Well today marks the first day of the rest of my life.

Boy how many times have you heard yourself say that line before??

Well a little about me, I am a single mother of 2 beautiful boys (7 years old and 9 years old), so I am a full time mother, and full time worker as well. Oh the biker babe part comes from me riding motorcycles!

Basically my reasoning to start this is to hopefully help people in the same boat as me become motivated, and heck..maybe help motivate me as well.

I am 31 years old and weighing in at 288 lbs. 5'8".  According to the scales I am 51% body fat. My goal by March 2012 is to be down to at least 220 lbs. Thats my "first goal"

In the beggining of the year  I started with a local bootcamp (with a friend of course *waves to Tee*)  from Feb. until May losing around 42 lbs. Well folks I gained about half of that back. I wish I would have kept it as a life style change.

So I decided to go back. the fitness camp. I paid for 2 month, unlimitied workouts. Lets see how this goes.

Tee and I are actually doing a personal challege right now. She is going to diet and work out the next 30 days on her own, and if she loses more weight then I do (which she normally does lol) She will continue doing it her way, if not she will rejoin the bootcamp with me.

On todays menu:

Breakfast:
Kashi Cereal
Yogurt
Bananna

1st Snack:
Carrots and Celery plain almonds

Lunch:
My "fake" fried rice creation (inspired by my friend Michelle)

(lots of water at least 100 oz)

I also take a womans one a day multi-vitamin in the morning and 2 capsules of flaxseed oil with every meal

Well its's 10:20 am EST here in Ohio so this is the PLAN so far.

I am working until 5:15PM so tonight bootcamp class is at 7:00PM thank goodness its around the corner from my house!
