Food and more Food

So yesterday i cant say I did really well with my eating habits. I have no excuse except I was lazy. Water was non existant yesterday..definately need to change that. So today its going to be healthy food and lots of water. Feeling good because I have gone to excersize for three days in a row and changed my sleeping habits so definately feeling better about that. Did the biggest loser video and it kicked my butt! Cant wait till I see some results from it because I know I will! Squats and more squats but I kept up and didnt pass out, completely. Ready to burn those calories and really start losing weight. I am feeling the energy difference because of excersize so I know what they say is true about endorphines and all that. Would like to add my abs, buns, and arms of steel to my workout regimine so I am getting a double dose of muscle toning. My friend katie told me she was sore, but then took an epsom salt bath and it took away all the muscle soreness for her. I am used to telling my clients that, but need a dose of my own medicine. Well I will be back tomorrow to let you know how it went today..wish me healthy eating!

Weight a second!

Oh yes it is true! With all my flubs and misguided direction, I have indeed lost weight. Are you ready? I have lost 8 lbs since starting my new life style. I am so excited! It is actually 4:30am in the morning and I am awake and kicking, and my excersize buddy katie will be here shortly to pick me up and go excersize. I know! Are you thinking what I am thinking? She's lost it! Thats right! I have lost it and some weight.

Past few days.....hmmm

Well I have done half way decently eating for the past few days. I have to admit I have not been drinking as much water as I should, and I did eat pasta, but for the most part considering PMS hit and all that I didnt do so bad.

The next big news is it is 5am in the morning when i am typing this..somewhat coherently. Yes, my good friend katie and I are going to get up early every morning and be excersize buddies! I dont mind so much with Katie because i know if I stink or dont do the right moves she wont judge me. I also know that she is good at getting up early so she will help me immensly to not oversleep.

Well anyways i am about to leave...wish me luck!

Moving foward...kind of.

So today I started out with cup of coffee and sugar..probably not the best choice. I finally ate a piece of turkey around 3pm. Went to work and had a 60z piece of ribeye and cut the fat off although I think it is a pretty fatty piece of meant anyways. Then I had two turkey wraps with onion..no lettuce or bread. Just turkey and onion. Strangely satisfying and luckily my husband works nights tonight so I dont have to breathe onion breathe on him. Just the rest of the unlucky world.

Did not wake up to excersize, I am going to try again tomorrow. Having a hard time getting up early. Don't know why. If I had a job that I had to do it for I would, but for some reason on my own its just too hard.

Weighed myself today and didnt lose any weight yet..not that I am surprised. It definately made me think that it is time to get serious! Go CANDACE Go!

Showed up in alaska!!!!

Ok I am so far off course it isnt funny. Got a little depressed and boom, hit rock bottom. Note to self stay motivated! I have decided the only way to get what I want is to change my patterns. Sleep patterns that is. Tomorrow I will wake up at 6am and do my new excersize video and get my fat butt into shape. I don't want to be fat anymore! I want to be healthy and in shape! I want to look at pictures of myself and be proud of what I see, and I want my children to have good habits! So 6am is my mountain to climb but on the other side I see happiness. BRING IT ON!

A little off course...

Ok, so yesterday went well untill the bday party..then it was calories galore. Today not much better! two hot dogs with ketchup, three pieces of bacon, and soda with sugar in it. Oh my, talk about falling off the wagon.

I was told today that I look like I am loosing weight.....motivation all over again. Tomorrow I will run and jump to get back on that wagon again and really get some things done! No more lazy candace!

Candace, this is a message to you! Get your butt in gear and love yourself and take care of yourself! No matter what it takes! Love, Candace

New years dress here I come!

Thursday, TGIF tomorrow!

So this morning I made my husband and I eat yogurt and grapefruit for breakfast...It was yummy! Something about vanilla yogurt makes the grapefruit seem sweet. I also ate two pieces of toast in the early afternoon...I know, not the best choice, but when groceries are low you do the best you can. It was whole wheat. I had two eggs for lunch. Then when I got to work I had a turkey lettuce wrap..less then a teaspoon of mayo. I was going to have chicken or salmon for dinner, but we got busy and next thing I knew we were closed. I did have coffee with no sugar and a cup of grapefruit juice. I drank a 44oz of water and another 28oz after that. I started a can of diet soda but only took two sips and forgot about it.

I know i really need to start excersizing but cant seem to get into the swing of it. I will try again tomorrow.
I know tomorrow will be hard, because it is my brother in laws birthday party. That means cake and ice cream and bad food too! I need all the strength I can get. I think I will just bring my own healthy snacks to eat so I dont go food crazy, and I am going to allow a very small piece of cake but no ice cream!

My friend chris is here in utah and he has lost a total of 120 lbs. It is amazing to see the difference in him and quite the motivator for me.


Wel goodnight to anyone who will read this! Wish me luck tomorrow!
