new gym! and also march goals
So I’ve been a member of 24hr fitness and recently I’ve been hating it. They over extend their membership and there is absolutely no cap. It soooo crowded, most of the staff are rude and condescending, the parking is horrible, the treadmills are broken ALL THE TIME, and I almost collide with people on a regular basis and only receive dirty looks. It is also dirty.
So, f that.
Today I...

Fuck yeah.
TWO non scale victories this weekend.
Went home to see my parents for the first time in a few months and my mother more than noticed my weight loss. My first mini goal was set for the 18th and I didn’t meet it by 9 or 8 pounds but whatev. I think I’ve lost more than the scale is showing and I am stoked. (Except I totally when carb crazy this weekend but 1). My niece is in girl...

still awake
My dashboard is far too quiet at 4 in the morning.
Can I just say I love, love, love going to the gym at 1 or 2 in the morning? It’s actually very surreal. The gym is so quiet except for the quiet lull of the bad music and hum of the machines. There are always a few people there and I feel like we’re comrades in this late night/early morning craziness. I don’t have to feel...
Ow
I am so sore that I might die.

I’m up down on weight but on an average down, slow but good.
However, I am very much improving my cardio.
I have upped my intensity on the elliptical recently. I’ve gone from 11 to 12 in intensity and to the 12-18 range on the elliptical from the 11-17 range, burning about 20 more calories on average. I do this for thirty minutes and then I do the treadmill.
My pace has...

i can eat PANCAAAKES
omfg. I made low-carb pancakes and it was easy and they taste amazing.
I tinkered with the one-minute-muffin recipe and instead of microwaving the batter, I fried up some flapjacks in a griddle greased with butter.
I topped the pancakes with mascarpone (which I have never tried before), homemade mixed berry syrup (made with splenda), and whip cream.
Mmmm, mmmm, mmmm. Even my boyfriend likes...

day...uh, probably twenty nine: and we're back.
Hey thar.
I think I am back.
The weekend was an emotional shit-show. Also a food shit-show. And I GAAAAAINED.
Seriously, I gained around 4lbs in two days. Water weight mostly, but hey. It is seriously too easy to ruin progress. I got up to almost 204lbs! IN TWO DAAAAYS.
Come Monday, started detoxing, trying to get myself back in ketosis. Just eating clean and drinking a lot of fluids. Sweating...

day twenty-four: that's cool
Hi.
Today’s weight 198.4. For a total loss of -10.6lbs.
That’s good. But I was serious before. I’m not going to be totally convinced of anything until I’m under 195.
But I am clearly moving in the right direction, yay!
I told the bf and he insists it is picture time now. Blargh. I said I’d commit to “after” pictures after every ten pounds but I...

day twenty-three:
My boyfriend made me low-carb pizza without me having to even ask. He doesn’t cook much having decided that since I am a “superior” cook, that I should do it.
I’m not gonna lie, I am better. lolz.
But he went and looked up a recipe all by himself and it’s so yummy! I had a hard day. 12 hours on my feet (including a kick ass session at the gym) so I am grateful.
I...
