300/30 Day Ab Challenge

So last Monday I started a challenge I saw on Pinterest called the 300/30 Day Ab Challenge, basically you do 300+ situps a day (a variation of ab exercises) i've modified it a little bit because it's hard for me to do some of the positions but anyways i've done it everyday aside from Sunday I took a break but did a 2.75 mile walk which felt good, So far my weight loss is back down to 169.6 which is almost 7lbs down in about 2 weeks, I have a little less than 5 weeks until Hawaii so i'm doing my best to atleast get down to 155 or around that number since thats what I was before I fell. Feels good to be slowly losing weight, I wish it was coming off faster but I figure i'm doing pretty good with just watching what I eat and doing a small small small amount of exercise since I have to be careful because of my injury, i'm mostly just working on my abs and my arms since those are the area's that are bugging me! I'll keep you all updated on my progess as I go!

Starting Again..........

Well i've started over on my weightloss journey, being sedentary for so long has been hard and i'm glad I don't really have to anymore, my workouts are no where near where they were but they are doing something atleast, I started with the 300/30 Day Ab Challenge, I am on day 4 and man do my ab's hurt!!!!! i've also been doing some arm exercises and walking as long as am I allowed to per my doctor. The scariest moment came when I was at the doctors at my BP was 160/100 thats hypertension! Now i'm sure it was just because I was nervous about my MRI and in pain but still thats no bueno. 38 days til I go to Hawaii with the boyfriend!!!! :) I want to atleast be close to my pre-injury weight!!! Wish me luck!

Update

Well I've finished with physical therapy and thank the lord my weight has not gone up anymore, I see my doctor on Wednesday and I'm hoping he will have some answers, my pain was at a 9 all weekend and I had to miss my next to last PT appt because I was in too much pain and took pain medicine so I couldn't drive and my dad was busy, I already know that I won't be able to work out yet but I'm praying that maybe in another month or two ill be able to work out and seek employment again, thanks to all my readers for your support!

So I haven't posted in awhile.....

So I haven't posted since February, I guess i've just been so sad about the circumstances, since my injury on Jan 17th 2012 I have gained back 15lbs, I am not allowed to work out and 2 months being off my feet and taking pain medication didn't help either, well here it is almost 4 months later and i'm still not able to work out, i'm still on modified work release, which btw thank goodness because the other hard circumstance was that less than a month after I returned to work I was let go due to "my absences" which basically amounted to I was having to take too much time off for physical therapy and doctor appts. I was sick during March with a kidney infection and a viral infection in my stomach but I had notes for both those occasions. Anyways i'm back to doing more physical therapy and I am hoping at my appointment on the 30th maybe I will have a little less modifications so perhaps I can start working out because let me tell you even though I am eating right (90% of the time) the weight is just not coming off the way it had before when I was constantly at the gym and taking classes on top of eating right. So for now lets just say this story is to be continued.......

It's been a hard road....

So as most of you don't know I've been off the exercise wagon because I fell at work on January 17th nothing is broken but I've been on pain killers and needless to say I've not been able to exercise which honestly has been horrible I can feel the fat slowly creeping back onto my body....in all reality I've only gained 3lbs (keeping in mind Ive been on prednisone which for those of you not in the medical field is a steroid and causes you to gain weight) I'm actually sitting in a doctors office right now waitin to find out what is wrong with my hip and hoping I can get it fixed ASAP because not only am I off work I'm not able to work out because of the pain so although my goal is looking a little farther right now my hopes are still high, anyways I don't know if anyone who reads this has been on pinterest lately but I love it there are so many workout photos it's insane!! I've found so many new fitness blogs off of there that I'm officially addicted not to mention there are a ton of food recipes to boot! Well I hear my doctor outside ready to come in so I'll update you guys later!

Why is it so hard??

So i've been stuck at 160.8 for a few months now, I have squeezed into a size 4 but it definately is a squeeze, anyways lets fast forward, I got so mad at Ballys (now LA Fitness) over how they didn't cancel Brian's membership and kept charging me that I cancelled mine as well! anyways I haven't worked out since November and I feel like crap and I know I have to start allllllll over again, my eating habits are still okay but I need to kick it up a notch, my work will pay for a membership but heres the thing I work an hour away from my house, brian's house and unless I wanna go to 24 Hour (which btw costs $45 a month!!!!!!!!!!!!!, my work will pay for $30 a month but I don't want to pay the extra $14) so i'm gonna have to start working out at home or something because this is not cutting it, I was doing so good but now i'm in a slump, I need someone or something to pull me out of this!!! HELP

159 WHAT?????????????

So I weighed myself yesterday and i'm down to 159!!!!!! :) So happy right now just thought I would share!!
