I Procrastinate

I have been meaning to put up a post for a week now, but I am an extreme procrastinator . So I thought I would do it this morning before I get distracted. Things have been going well. Besides a tad bit of personal/family stress. When I am working out I HAVE to listen to music. It's a necessity when I am on the treadmill. Other workouts I can do without. For some reason to stay motivated on the treadmill I need music. I listen to all types of music in general. My gym mix is a tad different though. I need aggressive music. Mostly rap and alternative. It helps me to kick butt having upbeat music with a good cadence while I am trying to run.

Speaking of running. I did not think that I would be able to run until I was around 300lbs, but thanks to Kylie I am running already. We are doing the C25K (Couch to 5k)I am up to running 3 minutes at a time, and yes I feel like I am going to die. Afterwords I feel great though. I hope to be ready to go for our 10k in July. My main goal is to just finish within the time allotted.

Just in case any of you are wondering what I eat I will tell you a tad bit. I don't have much variety I find something I like and stick with it basically. That is what an average day looks like for me when I go to the gym. Don't be freaking out about how many calories I burn at the gym. I weigh A LOT so I burn more. The more I lose the less I will burn in the same amount of time at the gym. Also I don't always have that many calories left at the end of the day, but its pretty close. I haven't really had any sweet cravings in awhile. I do however still want to eat emotionally. So that is something that I still struggle with. That is where having someone to be accountable to comes in. I think that has helped me the most with all my struggles. Knowing that I have someone to go to that will help me get past wanting to over eat. My breakfasts are usually the same I have eggs, toast, and some form of meat, either ham, chicken, or turkey. Lunch lately has been pita pit or subway, or I have left overs. Just depends. Dinner is usually a meat and veggie. I got these turkey burgers from Smiths ya they are amazing. I eat a lot of those too.

I had a rest day on Friday, I struggled all day with wanting to go to the gym. It was pretty much driving me crazy and Jared was like "go to the gym already sheesh" But I didn't I had a rest day. Being that it had been two weeks since I have had a rest day. So then Saturday comes along and I feel like crap, I DO NOT want to go to the gym and I was ornery (it happens I am a girl.) I ended up going and doing c25k for some reason I was so tired!!! I could barely make it through the cycle. As always I felt way better afterwards though. Sundays are supposed to be rest days, but I feel like I need to go, it helps my mood too.

I always have a ton of fun when I am at the gym with Kylie. We do a TON of laughing.

That is pretty much us all the time. Cracking up about one thing or another. It makes gym time awesome! Plus we work hard too.

Kylie has all the pictures of me on her phone so she will have to post those.

FREAKING AMAZING massage beds for after the workout! Woot.

Preston came to the gym with us!! Thanks Preston! Awww look they match!!! Cute!!!
