Well Hello There!
Did ya miss me last week?
I was on vacay with my littles at my parents' house on Lake Hamilton in Hot Springs. We had a blast & tomorrow (Thursday), I plan on throwing it all the way back to last week to tell ya all about it.
But for today, it's Weigh-In & Workout Wednesday Time!!!!
And there's something EXCITING that happened, but you won't get that till the end. So if you're one that just looks for the excitement, scroll down to the Weigh-In section.....everything in between will tell ya how I got there.

Goals
Someone once told me to keep my goals in front of me. And as bad as my memory is, it's REALLY hard for me to remember my goals if they're not in front of me. So I decided to do that....& then I realized, my goals have changed!!!! I used to just say: I want to way xxx lbs. Oh how that has changed.
Personal Goals:
1) Make healthier meal choices when eating out.
2) When indulging in something that's not a healthier choice, practice strict portion control!
3) Eat at least 2 fruits & 2 veggies daily.
4) Drink 80 oz of water daily.
5) Workout 5 days a week.
6) Log EVERYTHING into My Fitness Pal every day
7) Find a tankini-style swimsuit I'm happy with for Summer 2013. DONE!
8) Be comfortable enough with my body to wear a 2-piece for Summer 2014, even if I don't actually buy one.
9) Walk the St. Jude Half Marathon on December 7, 2013.
10) Stop weighing/measuring everyday....don't be number-driven.
11) Be less self-conscious & more confident with myself.
Maybe in future weigh-in & workout posts, I can give ya how I'm doing on these goals.
Something else someone once told me, you make your goals set in stone & the date is written in sand.....it provides for less disappointment if you don't reach a goal by a certain date. I've given up on putting exact dates on my goals all together (for the most part).

The Weigh-In
And here's the EXCITING thing!!!!
Ready, drum roll please.....
I've lost 2.4 lbs since my last weigh-in (2 weeks ago) AND I've logged in to My Fitness Pal for 290 days in a row! I'm also down another inch in my waist. I am seriously fine if the weigh-in number goes down any more or stays the same. I just want to shape-up & tone it!
