Feeling great!

So today I decided to skip the working out at home.  I hit the gym! (house was a total wreck from Halloween yesterday and I so didn't want to clean before I worked out). I am very happy with today's workout!  I feel AWESOME!! 767 calories burnt baby! Woohoo! It was the best I've done so far almost did 4.5 miles.

I did learn that dancing on the elliptical isn't a good idea. I almost fell off of it again.  One day I will... Going to have to get my dance on elsewhere lol!

So had my shake for breakfast and I'm eating an egg sandwich for lunch.  Mmmm.

Trying to blog from the app on my phone so this will be short because I'm still figuring it out lol.

Flooding...say WHAT?!

So I have been MIA for a little bit. Friday I did my workout....went to take a shower and my ENTIRE kitchen was FLOODED! I about died! Sooo... Maintenance came out and snaked my pipes AGAIN (3rd time). Then the nasty sewer water sat on my floor for 2 (yes TWO) hours before the cleaning company got there. =/ YUCK! 

It flooded down my hallway all the way to my bathroom, bathroom flooded...it was gross. I tried to save my carpets but it didn't work at all. Only thing that got me was disgusting towels now. I'm going to housing today and talking to them about the damages (my bathroom cabinet is coming apart now), then to the main office to talk about my things that got ruined. 8 towels, a broom, a pair of ACU pants, bathmats...UGH. Not to mention my microwave cabinet has water damage.

Anywhoo....Did my workout today! 515 calories GONE! Also, *insert drum roll* 1.2 pounds down!! Yippie!! 

Even with all the craziness that has happened the past weekend I still lost weight :) So happy. Didn't workout after Friday. Can not wait to measure myself and take pictures. I'm thinking that I'll do pictures once a month, weigh in once a week, and take measurements every 2 weeks (it takes longer for inches to come off sometimes). We will see. I get impatient lol. 

So, my TIP for today....Drink your water! Stop drinking pop (soda...whatever you call it). DON'T DRINK YOUR CALORIES!!!! Cut out the pop, and you have another 200(depending on the drink) calories you could use to eat HEALTHY foods! (I'm having problems with my pop. I drink 1 every so often and I'm trying to even cut that out! It's hard to do when people bring you one though, I feel obligated to drink it.)

Happy sweating ;) 

Sweat is FAT CRYING!

Today, my youngest started preK. I had 3 hours to myself! Perfect time to workout, and you know what else?? I got to take an UNINTERRUPTED SHOWER!!! If you are a mommy you know how that goes.

So, anyway. I took my measurements today....ugh. Those are some numbers I did NOT want to see E.V.E.R. but, if I want to track my progress and see the results, I gotta do it. It took me forever to find the tape measure though. I looked in the drawer about 10 times yesterday, it wasn't in there. Looked 1 time today...found it. Hate that! It should have had a big bright sign that said "I'm right here dummy!"

Anywhoo...today was Plyometric Cardio Circuit. OH-MAH-GERD!! I thought I hurt yesterday after the fit test...I can hardly move! BUT I did burn 515 calories :) WOOT! Ate a good breakfast (2 eggs, 2 sausage links, and a hash brown patty)...getting ready to have my chocolate shake for lunch. Then off to the store to get snacks (healthy ones) because I'm STARVING already. Plus myfitnesspal says I still have 1076 calories to eat (and that already includes lunch and part of dinner...). Still going to keep a deficit just not a huge one. My body needs the food!

It was so much easier when I didn't care what I ate, now that I want to eat healthier it's a bit harder...I will get there though.

Just a little something I thought I'd share...I always push myself and LOVE when I sweat (well not so much AFTER...but during the workout). I feel like it actually means that I'm doing something to get the weight to disappear. With Insanity you sure do sweat! 

Round is a "shape" right??

Well ladies and gentlemen....I did the fit test for Insanity today. Holy geeze I feel like I'm DYING and it was only a TEST! I remember feeling like dying doing the actual workouts, but not the fit test. Guess I'm way out of shape.

Here are my "test scores" so far...
Switch Kicks- 82
Power Jacks- 31
Power Knees- 80
Power Jumps- 21
Globe Jumps- 6
Suicide Jumps- 9
Push-up Jacks- 8
Low Plank Oblique- 27
Burnt 332 calories (it doesn't ask what your calorie burn is on the paper, but I use Myfitnesspal (jmmtaylor add me!)  and want to track what I burn and what I eat)

Not too bad (if I do say so myself). Hopefully in 15 days it will all be a little higher, buuuuut we will see.

This is totally me (if I ran...but I'm working my way up to it. (I know I know, you can't do it unless you actually start, but I wanna ease into it) You can't blame me can you?)

I'm pretty sure I don't look "cute" while working out, does anyone?? My though, if you don't look like a hot mess when you are done, you didn't do it right. Why do you want to look good when you get done? I'm not trying to impress anyone, I'm sweating my (not so tiny) derriere off.

Well, off to do some shopping, pay day is soon and I am NOT going to go fight the mob of military wives getting groceries. It is pure MADNESS in there. I don't have "crazy psycho that likes to shop in crowded stores" written on my forehead.

Get your sweat on people! :)
