Here are my excuses:<br /><br />Way to busy to keep it up. Two businesses, Two kids, Two blogs. Totally impractical.<br /><br />Who wants to sit at home and blog? (ha! I'm always on the computer)<br /><br />I keep forgetting about it.<br /><br />and the list goes on.<br /><br />But the truth is: I wasn't dieting. I wasn't trying, and I was gaining, and who wants to share that with the world?<br /><br />Since then I am on the Sarah "diet". Its essentially a list of rules (and believe me, she is a DRILL SARGENT). I let her make up my rules (with some personal tweaking). Andy and I are both doing it. We have started (drum roll please), running! I know I probably won't make my 4 mile goal by next month, but at least we will have a start. And so far this week I haven't cheated (or I get docked $20.00 from my precious vacation fund), and I have lost around 3 lbs. I know this will slow down, but I am doing this "diet" for the month of August! <br /><br />Thanks for the inspiration, Sarah!Jennahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14150259112398095229noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2161070223824602498.post-4458409161028057112009-05-28T05:34:00.000-07:002009-05-28T05:50:33.401-07:00Running.Well I officially (finally) started running on Monday. Tuesday I went to aerobics. Wednesday did church, and hopefully tonight I will run again. I am kind of on a plateau, so I'm hoping to kind of kick that this week. I will do this to myself. Do really well lose 5 lbs, and then jump of the band wagon (for what reason??) and gain a pound back, then jump back on and be stuck. Its going to be really hard to reach my goal if I don't kick it up a notch. My goal by middle of next week is to be in the 170's. I think I said that a few weeks ago, but that was before I gave up. <br /><br />Today, weighed in at 181.2 (lost .4 from 3 weeks ago. hmphh.)<br />Want to be 170 by my birthday (July 11)<br />163 by September 27 (Crew's Birthday)<br />155 by ChristmasJennahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14150259112398095229noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2161070223824602498.post-65721138225930388452009-05-13T05:02:00.000-07:002009-05-13T05:06:40.271-07:00Kicking myself.Do you ever just give up? My problem is, I don't give up because I'm not successful, I give up because I am. When I start to lose weight, then I get lazy thinking I can eat or do anything (or nothing) and still lose it because I lost it the week before. NO. That's not how it works. I get so frustrated with myself and my lack of self-control. When I stop posting on this blog, someone needs to call me on it, because it usually means I'm off in some corner with a pint of Rocky Road.<br />Seriously? Someone call me. I mean it. I have gained like two pounds this week. Gag. Why is it sooo hard to lose and so easy to gain. Today I'm going to do good, and hopefully by tomorrow be at least to the same weight as last week. To have any success I would have to lose 3 lbs. Yeah... not going to happen.Jennahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14150259112398095229noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2161070223824602498.post-70582969299752092882009-05-07T05:43:00.000-07:002009-05-07T05:51:46.806-07:00Weekly Weigh InA good weigh in day.

I admire runners and truly want to be one (maybe without all the work). I have made a small committment to myself with my husband to do the 4 mile fort-4-fitness walk/run. I plan on running it. I know its not very much but it will make me feel good to complete it. Who knows, maybe next year I will go for the mini.<br /><br />Any pointers on where to start Jamie?<br /><br /><br />If anyone wants to join in, Andy and I are doing it. There is also the option of the mini, and it takes place in Fort Wayne on September 26th.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.fort-4-fitness.org/">www.fort-4-fitness.org</a>Jennahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14150259112398095229noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2161070223824602498.post-5262060929757920582009-05-04T11:06:00.000-07:002009-05-04T11:09:03.198-07:00A VICTORIOUS DAY!Well, After the hard weekends, I finally had a weekend where I came out lower than what I started out. I was kind of dreading to peak at the scale, but am glad I did. I'm feeling a good weigh in.<br /><br />My Plans for a successful week so far:<br /><br />Monday: Walk with Hubby tonight and cook a whole chicken and broccoli.<br />Tuesday: Cook at home (not sure what yet, maybe a taco chicken) and go to aerobics at 7Jennahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14150259112398095229noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2161070223824602498.post-43936682288109168732009-04-30T10:41:00.000-07:002009-04-30T10:44:57.982-07:00Weigh In:Well, to all of you who couldn't figured out how to post. I'm sorry. I couldn't even figure it out when I tried. I promise I will do another contest soon!<br /><br />I have been sorely lacking in motivation this week. I had a back weekend, and a stressful few days (everything kept breaking in our house). I tend to stress eat, and then feel guilty later. This is attributed to my unhealthy relationship with food. Tuesday, I jumped back on the band wagon, did good, lost some, went to aerobics. I have been walking, but not doing anything else. So this week's official weigh in is:<br /><br />184.6 so basically the same. I have to survive those weekends, any pointers or challenges from anyone?<br /><br />PLEASE! I need help!Jennahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14150259112398095229noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2161070223824602498.post-76011860290272540382009-04-29T13:06:00.000-07:002009-04-30T03:26:58.724-07:00And the Winner is.....<div>After many long seconds of cutting and folding all of those names, I drew out two winner.

Friday night I did great and Saturday and Sunday night were bad, but I packed my lunch for Sunday church. I also worked out both Saturday and Sunday doing Turbo Jam. Its a lot of fun and a great workout. So overall I rate my self control a 6 out of 10. I can do better!<br /><br />My goal, is to by wednesday be down at least 2 lbs from last week. So far I'm down .6 but a few days of good discipline will help me go down from there.<br /><br />This Weeks Challenge:<br />Follow Low Cal Low fat Healthy balanced diet.<br />Write EVERYTHING Down<br />Cook at home<br />Work out doing Turbo Jam at least 3 times and if its nice walk<br />Do the Ab Jam at least twice<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOhr4Xh0RVu1efEUBSp9mhHCaqKfZRcLJIF5jgLoZ_sq9-lKv0D14T6QG9RkDuGPhZtSgEyLrSqNVH3yBrbtSBXuW7r7vZxvBi1NDeAs9mec5UPeuBzadArdqQVQrVm3bolkJUvzRFEio/s1600-h/Turbo%252520jam%252520-%2525203%252520title%252520front.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5326841277323542098" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 283px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOhr4Xh0RVu1efEUBSp9mhHCaqKfZRcLJIF5jgLoZ_sq9-lKv0D14T6QG9RkDuGPhZtSgEyLrSqNVH3yBrbtSBXuW7r7vZxvBi1NDeAs9mec5UPeuBzadArdqQVQrVm3bolkJUvzRFEio/s400/Turbo%252520jam%252520-%2525203%252520title%252520front.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div></div><br /><div></div>Jennahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14150259112398095229noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2161070223824602498.post-41788031397475993982009-04-17T08:01:00.000-07:002009-04-17T08:35:57.761-07:00Week 1 Day 2<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhm42WrUYYqNHhDjMBh6Oct3_JglzfhmWSeqFyHh2kcS-QnMqZh-6CkCGbhIHwoje7vrNo6ULl_KdfpO8-alt9WOK6PfFm6p3SX1XpdkJiUAEQauQxH9wQOMupx612FCQUtns4NE_UNHcU/s1600-h/IMG_0419.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhm42WrUYYqNHhDjMBh6Oct3_JglzfhmWSeqFyHh2kcS-QnMqZh-6CkCGbhIHwoje7vrNo6ULl_KdfpO8-alt9WOK6PfFm6p3SX1XpdkJiUAEQauQxH9wQOMupx612FCQUtns4NE_UNHcU/s400/IMG_0419.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5325684216738536642" border="0" /></a><br />My relationship with food:<br /><br />This is my first step on what I need to change. I admit it, I'm a 3:00 pm binger. I find myself bored and hungry (or having an appetite) and munching, with guilt to follow. I have some signs of a food addict. I'm hoping this diet and blog will be a good solution for me.<br /><br />Here is what I am doing:<br /><br />A Low Calorie, Low fat diet (like Weight Watchers)<br />Writing down the food I eat<br />I have my Mom for an accountability partner (we share what foods we eat)<br />I count calories, portions, and fats.<br />I also keep track of how many fruits, veggies, dairy, proteins, and fats I have.<br />I take a multi-vitamin once a day.<br />I try to walk, get on the exercise bike, or strength train around 3 times a week (I know I need to increase this).<br />I have portioned out fruit, cereal, carrots, snak foods in bags (thanks Suzie!) and it has helped so much.<br />I will no longer drink my calories (no juice!)<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 204, 204);">And My Weekend Challenge:</span><br /><br />Tonight is POTLUCK.... so it will be challenging. My goal, eat only one portion except for veggies, no cheesy anything, no dessert (maybe a bite of Andy's), and be careful with the snack (maybe popcorn if they have it). Keep me accountable please!!!<br /><br />Tomorrow night is the Republican HOG ROAST! Yum (not.) so I will really have to watch my meat portion there, and picnic style foods.<br /><br />Sunday is a family even with the stollers. Thankfully Aimee is making WW Apricot chicken (its French Cuisine night).<br /><br />Stay tuned... because I may post some "before" pictures if I get bold enough...Jennahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14150259112398095229noreply@blogger.com7
