Yay!! I
finally hit a new low record for my weight.
The last month I’ve just been gaining and losing the same 4 pounds. Hopefully I’ve broken that cycle. My current total weight loss is 21.6
pounds.
Here’s a recap of my goals from last week and how
I did.
100 ounces of water a day – I think I should get
an A for effort. I try so hard, but I
usually only end up around 80-90 ounces.
Try protein pancakes – Fail. I got cottage cheese at the store. I already had everything else needed to make
the pancakes. I go to make them. Check the date on the oatmeal in the pantry….December
2010. Oops. Oatmeal has been added to the grocery list
for this week. I wonder if I could use
the single serve instant packages. I
have tons of those.
Workout at least 5 times – Done. The spin and bootcamp classes have been
AMAZING this past week. I’ve burned over
500 calories in each 45 minute class. My
highest calorie counts were 532 and 515.
Log all food in My Fitness Pal – Fail. I did not log on the weekend. Why are the weekends so hard?!?!?
Goals for the week
100 ounces of water a day
Try protein pancakes
Workout at least 5 times
Log all food in My Fitness Pal
Try a new workout
I am participating in Skinny Meg’s challenge and
I’m LOVIN it. She had a challenge to see who could do the most burpees in
30 seconds. I did 13. I’m very happy with that non scale victory. Right after I completed the challenge, I went
to bootcamp class, and wouldn’t you know the instructor had us doing
burpees. Every minute we had to stop
what we were doing and do 4 burpees. By
the end of class, we had done 120 burpees.
Oh so sore!!!!
Linking up with
Hahaha! I love the burpee meme.. I've used it before too! Because I'm sure that's exactly the face my tabata instructor makes when he makes us do them. HAHAHA
ReplyDeleteKeep focused! You will achieve your goals!
And... weekends are hard... And I'm not sure why.. Even if I plan the food, and try to pack the day with activity.. I always.. ALWAYS go off track.
If you figure out how to conquer the weekend. Let me know!
The conclusion I've come to is that you have to have some kind of supernatural powers to conquer the weekend....haha
DeleteCongrats on your weight loss! Lol, I hate it too when I want to make something and I find out the ingredient is expired. Good job on those burpees...120 is a lot! That's a cute pic lol.

Thanks!! I'm still paying for those burpees 2 days later :)
DeleteYAY on your weight-loss!!!! Great weekly goals!!! #wowlinkup
ReplyDeleteThanks! Writing out my goals has helped me tremendously.
DeleteI'd say 80 - 90 oz. is pretty dang close enough to your goal! I'm the same, I shoot for 100 but usually end up between 80 - 90. And giving our body that much water really can't be considered a fail, can it?! You're doing great, keep it up!!
ReplyDeleteThanks! It's definitely good. But once...just once....I would like to hit 100 haha
DeleteWeekends are hard because you're not on as tight of a schedule as you are during the week. You still did pretty good this week!
ReplyDeleteI totally agree. I don't have the routine that I have during the week.
DeleteOh man those burpees are great, but will do you in. I'm doing the 21 Day Fix and one of the workouts includes doing burpees for a minute. #wowlinkup
ReplyDeleteI have heard so much about the 21 Day Fix. I think I'm going to have to check it out.
DeleteYay on the weight loss! And great job on the water. It's really hard to get 100oz in, it's hard to get in 80-90oz too! #wowlinkup
ReplyDeleteTeaching my boot camp class this evening I will have them do a burpee every 3 minutes. Thanks for the idea LOL. #wowlinkup
ReplyDeleteAre you on Twitter? Tweeting your post.
DeleteOh you are evil...haha
DeleteNot on Twitter. I'm still trying to learn blogging. Adding Twitter could blow my mind LOL
Deleteok ok I am trying to log my food in MyFitnessPal and need to get used to it. NOW your caloric burn in less than 60 minutes is AMAZING! That is what I do in 60 minutes. Impressed! Get that water in - you won't regret it. #wowlinkup
ReplyDeleteThanks!! Where I'm at in life with work and kids, my lunch hour is the only time I can fit in a workout. I get jealous of those people that get to spend an hour and half at the gym. I try to mentally pump myself up before my workout. I tell myself you've only got 45 minutes. Make the most of it.
DeleteI don't know what it is about My Fitness Pal! I get on a two-three day streak and then forget all about it for a few days.. I can't seem to make the habit stick!
ReplyDeleteI have a love hate relationship with burpees... I hate them when I'm doing them and love the way I feel after I'm finished with them..
Haha yep, burpees are super hard! Awesome job, girl! I just started logging my meals into My Fitness Pal, too, to make sure I'm eating enough calories while nursing! It's definitely hard to remember, though...

Wow congrats on the loss and on your goal progress! I wouldn't use instant oatmeal for the pancakes. I think the texture of old fashioned oats is so great for the pancakes! #wowlinkup
