September 2012 Weddings

Accountability - Tuesday

Tuesdays are always my off day, I work 9-5, go home and grab my fiance and head to the US for a meeting at 8 in Southfield, after picking up anyone we're carpooling with... its just a matter of a lack of time so we plan it as an off day knowing that.

How is your week going thus far? Any reports of good stuff/goals reached?

Today's Inspiration Picture:

Re: Accountability - Tuesday

  • Last night I lifted and did my ab challenge (which I had been slacking on) so I'm pretty happy about that.  Also, I ate pretty well yesterday.  

    It's freezing here so I'm getting nervous for the 10K this weekend.  It takes me forever to warm up.  When it's warm after 3-4ish miles I feel loose and warmed up when it's cold I feel like I never truly get acclimated.  I'm thinking of buying some capri running tights.  Oh!  I just checked the weather mid post and it looks like it will be in the 50s.  Thats good running weather for me.  30s and 40s is not at ALL.
  • Yesterday was a good day! My normal boot camp, which I have come to love, was cancelled at the last minute. I was so dissappointed and also worried about what I would do instead. I went home and pulled out my Jillian Michaels DVD which I hadn't tried yet. I was so happy I did it! I felt so much better that I was able to do something on my own! It's always been hard to motivate that's why this boot camp has really helped me. 

    I'm down one bra size, which is awesome! (from a 38 to a 36) I'm losing inches! I'm also down one belt size! I still have to use the last notch on that size, but hey! I can switch out my L's for my old M's!

  • Thinks for posting the pictures everyday Britt. I set them as my desktop backgroud everyday to keep myself motivated!

    Yesterday I did my usual 2 miles of running/walking.  I just started the C25K program.  When I get tired or want to give up I just keep saying "wedding dress, wedding dress" over and over in my head! lol 

    Today I'm doing a JM DVD afterwork and FI and I are going ice skating from a groupon I got.  He's never been so its going to be funny watching him try/fall a few times.

    Glad to hear they help you! If you ever wanna refer back to any of them, I have a board on my pinterest called 'Fitness Inspiration' and they are all on there :)
  • Congrats on losing inches romamor!! This might be TMI, but I don't really want to lose any inches from my girls lol. Been doing a little research on how to accomplish that

    Today is the first time my gym buddy & I are going to the gym in what feels like forever! SOOOO EXCITED. My abs are going to be so sore tomorrow, but I'm determined more than even to get toned!

  • Congrats, romamor!  That is awesome and must feel so good!

    What's been motivating me right now is super sexy bathing suits.  I haven't bought a bathing suit in probably 4 years because 1. I didn't change sizes for a long time and 2. I am from Florida and totally take where I live for granted so between work and school and life I just havent gotten a lot of use out of my old ones.  But I bought 1 VS bathing suit a little bit ago that I'm saving for the honeymoon and want to treat myself to one more.  It is on sale right now but I feel like I should wait until I achieve something...can't decide.

    Did my pushup challenge and started the squat challenge last night.  FI is coming home for 5 days starting tonight which is such a treat!  But I can't let that distract me so I'm determined to make him do JM with me tonight haha.  Since workouts are his career I always appreciate his opinion on how good these things are anyways (and an eye to check my form since he's so strict about form).
  • I didn't end up making it to the gym yesterday.  FI didn't get home till after 10, so we weren't in the mood at 11 after eating dinner to go.  We just went to bed instead.  Tonight we're going to the gym, though, and it's beautiful out again, so I'll take the dog on a walk when I get home.

    So In Love
