Yep, I'm Awesome

CW: 190.2lbs (15.8lbs lost)

Let’s go ahead and talk about how awesome I am. I spent all day yesterday with my mom shopping and whatnot and I got some of the CUTEST running clothes at the Under Armour outlet. When I got home I made dinner (Spanish Rice with black beans, corn, tomato, chicken, and Greek yogurt) and then even after I ate I had the sudden urge to run. So slipped on my super cute running top and then kicked some ass. I ran/power walked the shit out of a 5K. I did it in 35 minutes and some change. Like 30 seconds faster than my goal, and I ran A LOT of it.

And afterwards, I really wanted to go get Sweet Frog, but I resisted the temptation, and didn’t get anything sweet. Actually, I didn't eat anything…I just chugged a whole bunch of water instead. I am not a dog, I did not reward myself with food. I’m so proud of myself. “My feet hurt from kicking so much ass”.

And today, I stepped on that beautiful scale and look what it read!!! 190.2. The 180s are calling my name!

Can we also talk about how I wore a tightish fitting outfit yesterday (black yoga pants with a gray tank and my hot pink Nike sports bra underneath—not exactly super stylish or anything…but still…I was sexy either way) while out and about and the Hubs told me how he thought I looked fantastic, and so did my mom! Mom even commented on my guns! I must be doing something right then!!! J

Here’s to another great week. Though I probably won’t be exercising today since I’m packing and my run last night was pretty late and my achilles/soleus is sore. So, taking it easy today!

Yesterday’s Menu:
B: Oatmeal with Strawberries, Almond Milk, and Greek Yogurt
L: Leftover Mini Pizzas
D: Spanish Rice with Black Beans, Corn, Tomato, Chicken, and Greek Yogurt
**I may or may not have had a couple of Mike’s french fries (maybe 5 or 6, max) when he went to Wendy’s for lunch, but its negligible so mehhhh**

And some progress pictures…(my least favorite part...ick):

A) Sorry they are so blurry. I used my iPhone and had some trouble uploading them to this blog individually. I'll fix it for next time. Scouts honor.

B) I know the date on the first pics is November 2011. I had some grand ideas about losing weight then,  but gave up when I found out that I was going to have knee surgery again. Meh...

Anywho! Honestly, I don’t see any difference really, except in the way my clothes actually fit. My underpants aren’t as tight which is nice. And you can see a TINY gap between my thighs RIGHT near my crotch, so I guess that’s progress, too. And in the second set of pictures, you can see some more definition in my arm…Obviously I still have lots of work to do, and its definitely going to take some time. Lots of time. 50 lbs dont disappear over night!
