Next challenge survive mother’s day food buffet.  My kids don’t eat the food and neither should I.  I have thought very hard about this so great Granny wants to see the kids she is not in the best health in her 80’s.  So I will bring my kids as soon as they tell me all the food is put away and we will show up fashionable late.  I can’t be around bad food and there could be great healthy food in the mix that is great!  But I don’t at all want to be around it this year at all.  My progress has been so great now and I want to hit goal at Christmas and maintain my lifestyle forever.  Not yo-yo like I have done in the past!    Plus family members at time can be great and then they can be negative and gossipy.  I can’t stand negativity lately only positive is good for me.

So what have I been up to.  Nothing much today I have a stomach bug and feel like crap.   Tonight I tried to eat half of my 1200 calories. Now I am ready for bed.  I was up every hour last night or more being sick.  This is no way trust me to loss weight.  I think it could of been the pasta dish that my hubby gave me last night.  He gave me half of his Ruby Tuesday meal pasta chicken.  But I think it made me sick not sure.  I could of got a bug from a kid at work or coworker. Then my husband and I were having friends over tonight for a cookout but I called my friends and said don’t come.  I was all set to make chicken kabobs with red onion and colored peppers. The food will be in the fridge for next time.   Ugh  his came  I hung out for just a little bit and got the baby put to bed.  Thanks mom for taking Miss 4!  I am hoping I will be well enough to take her to the YMCA for her swim lesson.  If not maybe hubby can take Miss 4.

My motivation was get losing weight now or be on medication.  I choose to wake up to exercise because I feel better!  What is your motivation?

I got a little frighted when I weighed in at the Live Healthy Team Challenge on Monday at 200.4.  Then when to the doctors on Thursday were I weighed in around 206 pounds.  Think how in the world did I gain weight.  Went home to check to see if the scale was right and I weighed in at home at 205.  Oh man…  I was thinking what is up with that!  Then thinking about it and having a friend say it maybe the muscles tightening after a hard workout.  Well I thought that may be true on Wednesdays I do Spin at 5.15am and boot camp at 5:30pm.  Well I could hardly move after boot camp Wednesday night.  I felt like I had put back on all the 65 pounds I had lost. I felt way pregnant again feet hurting and everything.  To tell you the truth I ran about 3 miles during boot camp and I haven’t ran like that forever.  So maybe my muscles need a break and plus I kept drinking tons of water so my muscles do not cramp.  My legs will cramp and hurt like heck at night so I drink plenty of water.  The last time I say 100’s was in 2010 when I lost 30 pounds in the same team challenge ( it used to be called weight no more)  in the spring.    Then in October of 2010 I found out I was expecting my son and boom bang back in the 200’s in 2011.  I can’t wait to be far away from the 200’s now.  Only 24 pounds more to go until I hit the weight I was at before being pregnant.  I never got to finish last time so only 59 more pounds to go. One good thing to come from losing over 60 some odd pounds is I no longer have high blood pressure.  I won’t be going on blood pressure medications anytime soon.  The doctor said next month is his last month he needs me to check in with him.  He actualy gave me maintenance pamphlets and I was like what are you serious.  I am only half way to my goal and he said you can do it on your own now.  The number one reason is because I am healthy and have no more health issues caused by weight.  At the end of May then instead of being accountable to my doctor the blog hopefully will be my outlet of accountability.
