165 lbs.

down 32 lbs. from start  

25 lbs. to my goal 

So I have been eating well and working out really hard the last week or two(if you don't count yesterday) and the scale is moving slowly, but I want it to go faster! When you work hard, it should pay off. lol. I know it will in the long run but sometimes it doesn't feel like it. So I bought a new scale this week just because I thought I had a cheap one that wasn't entirely accurate. My new one is the same way. I can weigh myself twice in just one minute and the scale sometimes says two different things. Obviously my weight doesn't fluctuate that quickly. I just wonder if there is a scale that exists that just works really well. I'd like that scale!

So I have realized that alcohol is bad. Not only are you ingesting too many calories when you go out drinking, but the aftermath is even worse. After a night of drinking, sometimes I'll want to eat at night. But the next morning, I really want to eat. I want the worst food possible and lots of it. That's how I'm feeling today.. morning after Cinco de Mayo. I did more drinking this weekend than I've done in weeks. And I think I can go a few more weeks without drinking. lol.

So Phil and I have decided to sign up with a personal trainer. We are going to do the group training. It's a lot cheaper if we do it together. It'll be 2 times a week for 6 months! It's definitely not cheap, but I think it could change us! 6 months is a long committment. I'm looking forward to it. I hope to still fit in my zumba on the other days as cardio and then hope the trainer can assist me more with the weights and toning. Hopefully that will help me lose the weight but get toned at the same time so I don't find myself having to play catch up in the toning department once I reach my goal weight. I'm pretty sure we are signing up today after work!

I stumbled across this picture the other day. I want Britney Spears' body! I don't want to be uber muscular. I just want to be small and toned. This is my inspiration. :)

I do not want to work today... and I want Jack n the Box. Blahhh. Hopefully I can keep myself in check. I cannot slack this month. My summer body and the DietBet is currently on the line! :)

See ya!
