It's been a long time!

after two months of dealing from one injury after another. I'm almost back to my old self. My IT Band feel's great, my knee is back to normal but my knee is still slightly bugging me. I would say it's 95% back to it's old self. I had a little bit of sharp pain in my knee this morning while working out. I lost some much of my upper body strength and muscle. I could just cry. I decided to slowly work my way back into a weight lifting routine and easy runs.

This is the plan for this week:

Mon: CE Burn Intervals plus Ab Burner
Tue: Running 3 miles
Wed: CE Burn 1 plus Ab Burner
Th: Running 6 miles
Fri: CE Burn 2
Sat: Turbo Fire Stretch plus long run (six miles????)

Two months ago before I injured myself I was down to my lowest weight since having my first born. I was down 122 pounds. I ended up gaining a ton of weight. I was depressed about my injuries and ate to much crap.

Plus, we went to Hawaii and I gained ten pounds. Those Hawaiian Sun drinks are deadly plus Ted's Bakery didn't help the situation.

So, I came back from my trip weighing 136 pounds.

We have been back for a week and half and I'm down six pounds.

I'm currently, down to 130 pounds.

I would love to get back to 125 pounds.

I'm hoping myself accountable plus avoiding sugar as much as possible.

What not to do if trying to lose weight!

Cutting calories and increasing my calorie burn didn't cause me to loss the weight. It actually caused me to gain weight. I ended up going down to Bodyworks and I talk to the guy at the nurtition shop. He told me I was making serious makes.

1. While running all of those long miles...I thought I was burning tons of calories. Wrong...I wasn't burning carbs, fat, but I was burning off my muscle.

2. I was starving my muscles.

3. I was overtraining and working out too much.

4. I wasn't eating enough protein.

5. I was only eating 1800 calories and I needed to actually eat close to 2500 calories.

So, I cut back on my workout routine. Now, I run three times a week and lift weight three times a week. I drink three protien shakes a day. I use a brand called Nector...it contains no carbs or sugar. I need to consume close to 200 grams of protein everyday. Plus, I had to increase my calorie intake.

The weight is coming off super fast. I'm hoping to be at 120 lbs by next week. I'm not even dieting or trying to loss the weight. It's coming off all on it's own.

We're going to Hawaii next to month to celebrate and I will be running in a half marathon in Honolulu called "Run Like a Diva". I can't wait.

My hard work is finally starting to pay off.

I know it's hard to see in the picture but my waist line is going down fast. I already lost two inches off my waist line.

Plus, I picked up a size small in workout pants and they fit. Yippee...I'm wearing a size 4-6!

I also lost 2.5 lbs!

Week 2-weight loss update

I managed to drop the pounds.

Last week, I ended up gaining two plus pounds!

This week, I managed to drop four pounds.

The starting weight was 131.5 and I'm currently at 127.5!

Only 2.5 pounds to lose before I will be reaching me goal of 125 lbs!

Inferno Fire-Results!

The results are in...I didn't make much progress!

I burned yesterday alone over 1100 calories and I gained one pound.

The only area that I say any difference was my waist line.

Talk about feel'n discouraged.

I'm going to have to try again...I had a hard time following the low calorie plan but I was still eating super healthy.

Life sucks sometimes!
