Heres the scoop!

I got a new scale today! <3>

*** ~142.8~***

YAY! Mind you this was at Noon so thats after breakfast and water and a snack. LOL But ya know what I mean.

I'm going to be weighing in now on sundays. I've joined 2 challenges, one on YT and one on here. :)



The one here is hosted by : http://amysquesttoskinny.blogspot.com/

And my next post on here will be our first challenge. FYI. Its to make a sinful food but re create it in a healthier manner. WOOT WOOT! I'm excited! Not sure what I'm making yet but I'll be making it tomorrow!! <3

BE BLESSED!! <3

New challenge..

So Yeah, I'm basically going to start cutting my calories down to 1000 instead of 1200. And I've still been excersizing regularly. If you follow me on twitter you can keep up with it there! <3 I post what I did for the day there.

Yesterday, the first lady of our church. Came up and said " GIRL! You're getting to skinny!!" LOL I asked her if I had told her how much I loved her lately!! haha Yeah, its pretty awesome getting so many compliments lately. Not only about how I look but about my working out. Some people from church follow me on twitter and keep tellin me I'm crazy for working out so much but that its so inspiring! Gosh that makes me feel SO good!

I weighed myself this morning just for kicks and it said I'm down to 142. WHAT?! I'm in shock! I'm ridiculously close to the 130's!! I dont even know what to say. I'm only 21 lbs away from 120lbs!! THANK YOU LORD!!

I've taken off all the secular music from my iPod. It makes me very happy because I've come a LONG way. I just dont feel right listening to all the stuff I USED to listen to. It makes me feel dirty almost. Call me weird.. I dont care. It makes me proud. I may only be a baby in Christ but I know I'm growing ever so much as the days go by.

This morning I ran our usual three miles with my besties ( Wonderwoman, and SuperWoman!) lol It was awesome, I then went with Superwoman to our little gym and did some light weights. VERY light actually only did 3 sets of 12 of one of my usual arm workouts.

So this is going to be our schedule from here on out:

Mondays: 3 mile run

Tuesday: GYM workout (elliptical & treadmill & weights)

Wednesdays: 3 mile run

Thursday: GYM

Friday: 5 mile run!! :0

We're gonna test it out this week, see how we like it. And if we can all stick to it.. Cant wait to weigh in next weekend!!

Thanks for reading!! <3 God Bless!!

well..

I layed in bed last night talking to my husband about my plan to do the fast-5 diet. Yeah, he's totally not cool with it. I dont know what to do now... He is my husband, and I dont want to do anything that goes against his wishes. He's basically saying that no matter what the site says its just starving yourself. Grrr. And here I thought since he LOVES science he'd be all about it. Yeah. Not.So.Much. So whats a girl to do?? I'm really torn. I've been practicing the past few days, just trying to delay meals and such. And I've lost a couple pounds doing so. I mean I'm sure it'll work. I just dont want my husband to be angry or really concerned. Which he is now. He made it a point to say make sure you EAT! today as he walked out the door for work just now.


I woke up late this morning because my baby girl decided to wake up @ 4:30am for a bottle. Anyways, late or not I still went running! And we did 3 miles. I gotta be honest, after the 1st mile I wanted to give up!! Felt sick and dizzy.. NO FUN!! But I kept on trucking! Finished them all and felt great after. I've noticed that since we started running outside.. I just can't get into it on the treadmill anymore.

Alright my girls are in a desperate attempt for attention.. gotta go!


I'll update later.. I really would like some feedback on the fast-5 issue ( hint hint Paula :) ) THANKS!!

Alrighty than...

So it begins. I dont know how many times I've said it but I need to get my booty in gear!! Tomorrow I will start the fast-5 "diet". I'm so excited! I'm going to do it no matter what cuz I have a cruise for SURE in august and I gotta lose as much weight as possible before then. And I'm gonna be running a lot more again. I did 3 miles this morning and will be getting up with my favorite running partners (my best girlies *wonderwoman*,& *superwoman*) BTW I've been dubbed Susan storm. Because of my ability to disapear when I'm actually supposed to be waking up and running!! LOL. Thats alright though cuz shes hot! LOL YEAH!! Needless to say, I will no longer be using that super power guys!! I promise to be visible and running along side my girlies everytime they go!! And if they dont go, I'm vowing to atleast hit my little mini gym in the apartments and do the elliptical, oh and after my runs I'm gonna do some light weights! I'm scared the fasting will deplete my big muscles I've been working on. hehe. Yeah so thats the low down.. you are all officially up to date.. EXCEPT.. you dunno how much I weigh.. hmm...





I weighed in this morning @ 144lbs!! YAY! So thats freaking terrific but I wanna be atleast 135 when I leave! So thats my goal! Also I'm going to be posting here more regularly because it'll keep me more accountable. I've been doing my videos but it takes so much time to make and edit videos.. I figure I'll just update this more now. Yeah so thats that!! Look forward to daily updates from me here on out atleast till I reach 135lbs.. and than maybe longer who knows!! <3


Thanks for reading! GOD BLESS!!! <33

Time to get busy!!

I'm going on a vacation to the beach in August. But this girl is not beach ready. I've gotta get to work.
This past week I've worked out six days in a row! Woot Woot!! So I'm taking today off so I can rest. I've dusted off my slim in six dvd and been doin that the past two days. Holy moly ya'll. The first day I did it I was like PSSSSH that was nothing! I'm gonna do my 30 day shred after, and I did. Woke up sore as can be, or so I thought. Anyways I had taped myself before and after and during, you know the whole 9 yards, so that I can make a video for this contest on youtube about bringing something out that you havent used in ages. Well my smart booty decided to record it holding the camera vertically.. anyhoot. Long story short, I put it on the computer to edit it all up and I cant flip the stupid videos. So0o0o.. I had to re-record everything all over again yesterday. And so today, I cant walk. Seriously. My husband keeps telling me I'm a big baby and need to suck it up. Yeah... Let me just do that real quick.

I've been logging my food @ sparkpeople.com. I guess thats going okay. I'm not very good @ it though. I mean its not hard to understand or anything. It's just so tedious (sp?) and it drives me nuts. But its the only way to know how much I'm eating. I might as well do it since I am on the computer practically all day.. Yeah. So thats what I'mdoing right now. Hopefully doing this and working out like a mad woman will help me lose the last 20 lbs I so despearately want to lose before the years end.

I'm also going to start writing in here more. Even if it isnt always weightloss related. I like journaling my thoughts. Its like therapy without the therapist.

Right now I'm listening to Shanti (antishay on YT) read out of "In Defense of Food" on her new channel antishayreads. Pretty great idea since I dont have the money to throw on another book. So far the books pretty great. Thanks Shanti! lol as if she reads my blog.

Well I'm off for now. Thanks for reading if you made it this far ;)

GOD BLESS! <3

Hip Hip HOORAY!! <3

So much going on right now. I cant even think of where to start!!

Last time I checked in here I'm pretty sure I was 150lbs. Well I lost another 5 lbs! I'm @ 145! Jeepers mister!! Thats flippin awesome! I'm officially in the 140's and I'm ecstatic! I've lost 30 lbs since December. I'm so proud of me. haha I'm gonna find two pictures to compare my face and such. hmm..



Grr for some reason it isnt showing up! I'll try that again later.

In August we're taking a family vacation to Miami. Well the hubby and I just planned everything out and as soon as I finish this blog I'm buying our tickets!! yay! I'm so excited!! We're going to spend two full weeks there. My mom and sister and basically all my moms side of the family lives there so we're gonna have my mom and sis to meet us in Ft. Lauderdale and we're going to stay there for 3/2nights on the beach @ a resort. My mom and sis are gonna babysit the girls so my hunny and I can have much needed alone time! And what can beat alone romantical time on the beaches of florida?! NOTHING!! Then, we're going to Orlando for another 3/2 nights and ofcourse go to Disney World <3 My most favorite place on earth. THEN, we're going to go on our first ever Cruise.. to the BAHAMAS!! Granted its only a 2 day cruise but WHATEVS! I'm going to the Bahamas!! So we gotta go get Passports!! but more importantly, I gotta lose these last 25 lbs!! ASAP!! I want amazing pictures from this vacay! It'll be our first ever REAL family vacation! I'm so excited!I know I've said that like ten times but I AM! hehehe

For those believers out there, please pray for my little sister Jackie, She's going through ridiculously hard times right now. Shes graduating next month and she really needs to get out of Miami, but theres so much more to this story that I cant get into. Just please pray for her. For strength and wisdom. And the power to speak what shes feeling. For her healing and for her to grow a hunger for the Lord, because at this momment she REALLY needs him! Thanks so much! God bless!! <33

Can I get a HECK YEAH!

Um yeah! I cant believe it... So I jumped on the scale on Wednesday and much to my surprise... I've lost FIVE lbs!! PRAISE GOD! It had to be Him because I didn't deserve it! Gee golly I don't even know where to begin!! I'm so happy right now!! I've been chuggalugin H2O like nobodies business!! he he Its awesome! I honestly don't know what to say. If you follow me on twitter (healthyvi) than you could see all my updates on my workouts and such! I've worked out everyday this week! YAY! And I plan to work out everyday (minus Sunday)! I've been doing the shred on level 2. Man that Jillian really isnt playing! I love it! I love when I'm sore the next day because it means I'm actually doing something. Tomorrow I'm going to run 3 miles with two of my favorite ladies in the world! I met them @ my amazing church. LOVE LOVE LOVE them! And you know whats crazy? They say I'm motivating them! Which in turn motivates me to keep on truckin! I mean really, if I can do this.....um ANYONE can! On another note, I had to cancel my gym membership BUT its okay. We're going through some things right now and my hubby's gotta get another job lined up. And with the new job we wont be able to afford the $60 we're forkin over to this place. So I'll more than likely be joining Golds gym when my membership expires June 6th. Which is actually really cool because a lot of the girl from my church go there! And they have a daycare there too, so I can go whenever!! YAY! alright I'm rambling now.. and I should get to bed!! I gotta get up super duper early to go for my crazy 3 mile run and be back before my hubby has to go to school at 7:30 am. And make coffee for me and my love and breakfast for the whole fam bam! thanks for reading again if you made it this far! :0)
