Worse blogger ever

Well I’m officially the worst blogger in the land. It’s been over a month since I posted last. Let me explain…

I was bad over the holidays and could not face you guys!

Haha. But seriously. The holidays were kind of crazy. A LOT of changes.

I got a new puppy. Her name is Pixie (hubby named her) she is the runt, and she is a long haired dachshund.

 

 We also gifted ourselves the new Wii U game console and I got Zumba and Just Dance 4; its super fun AND burns calories…always good

Also, I have struggled a bit with food/temptations during the holidays…shame! I gained a little and have been bouncing between 176 and 179!!! But last time I weighed I was 176.4...so not to bad. But considering I was due to be at my goal weight of 165lbs by christmas....major fail.

Here are some pics from the holiday since i've been M.I.A.

Me and the baby at Christmas

Texas had a white Christmas! Yea buddy! (doggy paw prints)

Well so I am back on track for this last 15-20lbs!! Get OFF!!!
This was just a catch up blog, I will be back in full swing tomorrow!! until then.

Weekend fun!

Well once again I am stuck at my weight. I cannot seem to lose like I was. Which is understandable, nearing the end of this journey...but it is frustrating because I am so close, yet the scale will not budge! My scale is a Biotch! It just pisses me off because now I probably will have to change my goal date to my birthday, which is January 31st. Instead of Christmas. ::sigh::

Granted, I probably didn't help the situation....Friday I did not go to the gym because I had my Job's Holiday party....I had some drinks and LOTS of this delicious dip my mom made...So no telling what the scale says.

Other news, here are some pictures from the party!

It was fun! After some liquid courage, they even managed to get me on the dance floor!

And saturday me and the hubby drove by a really pretty decorated park and stumbled upon a christmas event...there was vendors and food and a choir and band....not to mention the weather was beautiful! Only in Texas is it 79 degrees in December!

And So I thought that I would go ahead and do a more updated before and after photo...even though I'm not quite finished yet! But still! I need reasuraance right about now! have a good night!

Shopping and Heels

Well Change of plans! I did not have time to put together an updated photo post to show my progress. But tomorrow I will.


After work me and my mom went shopping for an outfit for our Work christmas party this Friday. And also had some dinner and a margarita at El Fenix!

Yummy! Margarita!

So my mom spoiled me today and got this cute outfit for me, for the party!
Necklace: Dots
Bracelet: Dots
Shoes: Pay less
Sweater dress: Ross
Leggings: Dots

  Then we saw this cute purse!

It is kind of funky, but I love it!

And to have some fun, I tried on some Sexy Hooker Heels [no one be offended, just because you wear these does not make you a hooker, just what I call them] and let me tell you, Ive NEVER worn or even tried on a pair until now. Main reason being that I am 5'10" and my husband is 5'9", so that would be aweful. lol

But I wish I wasn't so tall because I LOVE them. haha. It is weird how freakin sexy you feel the moment you put these puppies on! But I will stick to my flats.

So anyway...thank you for letting me share random things from my day. Until tomorrow!!

Keep going.

Today I focused on being GOOD. I have been having thoughts….bad thoughts…

Thoughts of things that equal so many calories, So I had to make sure and crack down today…keep my goal in sight. 165lbs watch out!

So Today I decided to make a To Do list and abide by it! I was very strict on myself today…and it paid off. I feel light as a feather! And freaking awesome.

Here is what I packed for work today

 Breakfast 8:00am

2 scoops of vanilla Whey Protein Shake

 10:00am Snack

1 folded slice of whole wheat bread with 1 Tbls of peanut butter and a banana

12:00pm Lunch

Campbells 100% natural soup and A green apple

My 2:00pm Snack 

6 cracked black pepper flavored triscuits and cheese cubes

My 4:00 Snack (and pre-work out snack)

Greek Yogurt and granola bar

After I worked out I had some fruit and then dinner was Corn (fresh frozen), green (fresh frozen) and rosemary seasoned red new potatos.  

I also did some ZUMBA today. On my own though...not that brave yet! I picked a bunch of videos from you tube I like and just danced along. Good enough. I break a sweat and only look like a fool in front of myself and my animals. lol

So My goal is to go ALL week like this. Eating right, doing some form of excercise EVERY day....and hopefully the scale is good to me saturday. 

If you wondering, "well, I thought that was what you were doing" Yes, your right, however...I have been swaying...and like I ranted about a few posts back, im getting burnt out..but I have come this far, I have to.......

Tomorrow I am going to Post a New updated before and after! [officially 72lbs down] And a couple other fun things...

Before I go....Im looking into yoga....anyone know where I can learn more about it so that I can attempt!?

SIZE 10

Well Well Well....

Look what the cat drug in! Sorry I have been M.I.A. lately.....Ill blame the overtime at work and The Holiday.

Well how was everyone's Thanksgiving?!  Mine was good. It was my first holiday since losing weight and I must say, it was difficult. Granted I did just let go and ate how I normally eat on thanksgiving, however I sort of felt bad for it. I know I know....you have to splurge every now and then...

...but eating a certain way everyday and then BAM....2 meals in less than 8 hours...Its a shock. Lemmie break this down...

Lunch numero uno
homemade green beans, homemade mac and cheese, creamy potatoes, turkey, dressing, sweet potatoes, roll, and pumpkin pie!

Lunch numero dos
Peas, green beans, corn, stuffing, turkey, potato salad, rolls, and MORE pumpkin pie and pineapple upside down cake.

Omg. I was stuffed. But it was good. My tummy was in shock and a little upset, but it was well worth it.

We went to see LIFE OF PI after dinner on thanksgiving and it was awesome. Very sad, but great story.

Here are some random pics from my holiday!

 My hubby and nephew.

My two main men!

 My grandmas pies, Chocolate, pumpkin, and pecan.



Hmm the pecan has a hole in it...


[wasn't  me]

thanksgiving morning breakfast at mimis...

Buttered pumpkin bread and Coffee.













I had a wonderful holiday and I hope everyone did as well....before I go, I wanted to tell you some big news!!

Size 10!!!!  And yes they fit. Woo Hoo. Officially gone from a size 20 to a size 10. Ubber Happy!

My Fur Babies

Meet my Fur Babies....

The story of Noala: She was a gift to me when I was 14 years old. My mom and Step dad had a Great Dane who killed me most prized and beloved Rabbit "Molly". I loved that rabbit so much. It was no ones fault. The rabbit got out, the Dog was just doing what it was built to do. So the puppy was a way to help the healing process. We went to get a beagle. In my mind, I was looking for a boy to name him Shiloh. (Real original i know...i was 14!! gimmie a break) But when I saw her, I fell in love with her diamond pattern on her neck and her butterfly on her butt....and the crooked tail she had. (they some how injured it or she was born that way..) And So I took her home and named her Noala. (from the Disney movie Lion King, only I spell it weird...once again, I was 14!!) And she has been my little princess ever since. Her hair is greying and either she is real stubborn or shes getting hard of hearing....so my little girl is getting so old. And I dread the day I have to walk in the house and not be greeted by her. But she has made the last 13 years awesome! 

Her Butterfly on her butt.

The story of Felix: Felix was actually my sister in laws kitty (my husband's brothers wife). I lived with them for a while and he was there but I didn't pay much attention to him because he was their cat and mainly with them and I had Noala. When we went our separate ways, unfortunately they could not take him where they were going, so we decided to hold on to him until they could. Well It has been over a year and he is still here. Haha. I have NEVER been a cat person. They are brats. But he is the sweetest thing ever. He is everything I thought cats WEREN'T. He does not kneed on me, he never has his claws out, he is loving and loves to be all up on you, and he gives LOTS of kisses. way more than noala. Hes a sweety pie. He is in love with noala but She doesn't quit feel the same for him. When we take her to the restroom, he meows this heart breaking meow until she is back in the house. So it is safe to say, he will be with us from now on. 

of course they both PHOTO BOMBED each others pictures....

   

*Thank you Tuna and Pretzels for making these pictures possible. :P

 I apologize for my lack of blogging lately.

This week has been kind of craZEE! And on top of everything I am already stressing about Christmas presents. GHAW!

The holidays are so bitter sweet. But It always works out, I just need to Get Er Done.

I’ve been doing so well on my diet actually. And have been to the gym every single day. Fought some 

 temptations as well....

I managed to do a 12 mile bike ride at the gym. On the Cycle Bikes, and my legs/butt is so sore…I’m going to try it again this time, but try to finish it a little bit faster.

I do not know why this week is so different then last week on the temptation aspect. I for some reason have so much more discipline this time around, however, I think maybe it is hitting me that the holidays are around the corner and I want to look good and I want to wow the people I haven’t seen since I started this! And get to my goal. Because although I’ve come this far. It won’t hit me or be real till I meet that magic number….

 If you have not already noticed, I made myself a Chalkboard! I just painted the back of a Dry Erase board I bought at walmart  with Chalk spray paint and so one side is chalk and one side is dry erase. 

Before I go, Something I like to call....."Yes please and No Way

                             NO WAY                                                                  YES PLEASE
Skinny Jeans....crazy busy and weird looking haha!           Hello Kitty for halloween & now christmas!
