Day 2-4 of GiveIt100 recap

Day 2: Today I waited until late evening to do my workout. I did a 45 minutes candlelight yoga session (http://www.amazon.com/Crunch-Candlelight-Yoga-Sara-Ivanhoe/dp/B00006FMB2). It felt great, and I went to bed right afterwards. I slept pretty good, too. That's a win in and of itself.

Day 3: Just a 15 min energizer. I didn't really do much else. I wasn't feeling too hot. And that followed over to day 4.

Day 4: Nothing. I thought about doing some sort of workout several times, but I never actually got up and did anything. So Day 5 is going to have a longer workout. I'll definitely be doing some yoga, probably one of the 20 min series (http://www.amazon.com/Sara-Ivanhoes-Min-Yoga-Makeover/dp/B00049QQUU), very likely the 20 min for weight loss. Can you tell I'm a fan of Sara Ivanhoe? hahah I like her sets. She's really good at explaining what to do without being annoying. Have you ever had that issue? Where you can't stand to finish a workout dvd because the leader is just freakin' annoying? For a lot of people, that describes Richard Simmons. I loved Sweatin' to the Oldies, though. But I was 9.

Anyways, yes, day 4 didn't go well. But that's ok. I'm just going to pick myself up and start again on day 5. If I gave up this early, I'd never finish 100 days. But I can do it! And I've got great support from friends all over the world cheering me on, getting me through this. And when I'm completely done with this weight loss journey, I'll weight less than 180 pounds, have a great figure, and buy lots of really cute clothes :)

I'm also going to do my official weigh-in and before photos tonight. I'll be posting them tomorrow with my day 5 recap!

Food Allergy Test Results

I was in for a surprise when I got my food allergy test results this past Wednesday. For the few days prior, my thoughts were wrought with fear that I may be allergic to garlic or nuts. I even started designing my garlic and nut super-villain tattoos. Thankfully those weren't on my list. The shock came with the 29 other items on my list! Moderate allergies Baker’s and brewer's yeast Pineapple Vanilla White mushroom Sensitivities Broccoli Buttermilk Carrots Casein Celery Cilantro Cinnamon Cod Dates Iceberg lettuce Kiwi Lamb Millet Onion Oregano Parsley Plum Potato Raspberry Rosemary Sage Strawberry Swiss cheese Turkey I was upset to see so many yummy foods on the list, including my go-to meat, turkey, and some of my usual spices. I was glad to see celery and onions, though. I’ve detested them for years and I always get laughed at for hating onions. Now I have a legitimate reason for hating them! I can live with this list. Well, I...

What's Your Song? Thursday IS BACK!

I realized that I'm in desperate need of some tunage. I'm trying a 3-day juice fast, and I want it to go well, so I need to be in a good mood - esp. since I hate most of the veggies in the juice but I know they are good for me. I have some good news - I have lost enough weight to take the 'W's off the end of my pant size, and I had to buy new, SMALLER undies. YAY! The hubby is very excited about the pair decorated with sledding penguins lol. Here's my song - Dirty Laundry by Bitter:Sweet. Love this song!!! Now if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna go dance with my dog and ignore all the dirty laundry that really needs to meet the washing machine :) Join us on this great link-up from Amber at Goodnight Moon !
