weigh in wednesday 

starting weight-174.4
todays weight-170.6
weight loss-3.4lbs
this week was not easy but i did it with the help of myfitnesspal.com app on my iPhone, with this app am able to scan the barcode on each item that i eat. i find this very helpful when you are counting calories like i am. i am on a 1200 calorie a day diet and this app calculates my calories and my exercise for the day so that i never go over and since the more you exercise the more you can eat i have been going to the gym 5 days a week. (woohoo!)
here is what else i have been doing....

workout
MWF-cardio for 60min
T TH- cardio for 30min

what i have been eating
breakfast-
1 pack-organic oatmeal
1 large banana
lunch-
lean cuisine panini
1cup-diet green ice tea
snack-
edy's all natural fruit bars
weight watchers- individually wrapped snacks
apples
dinner
broccoli
40z grilled skinless chicken breast
and water.

p.s i will be back next wednesday for another weight in.
stay strong!

p.p.s

not a resolution.



hi friends
i have decided to go on a diet. i will not call it a new years resolution.
i told you guys in my first blog post that i have pcos , so this will not be a easy journey but its one that need to be started. today i hit the gym for the first time in a long while because after reading on a "friends" blog how she lost the weight i was totally inspired to do the same. i know Amanda from my church, her brother is my pastor. so i know that her weight loss is for real. today when i hit the gym i weighed in at a whopping *174.4 (wow!), i am only 5'1 so with that being said.... i would like to lose 50lbs
the plan - going to the gym for 1hr 3 days per week and blogilates 3 days per week at home.
food- i will be eating 1200 calories per day (i will be make some recipe from blogilates and eating weight watchers and lean cuisine) and tracking it all on myfitnesspal.

the reason i am putting it on my blog is because i want to be accountable. if any of you are on a weight loss journey please let me know so that we could support each other.
this months weight loss goal is to lose 10 pounds by valentines day.
