Gag Week 5 Challenge

I know, I have once again neglected my blog. Phooey!! I'm super busy these days with getting ready to start a new job and cleaning my desk off. Plus I try to blog at Sparkpeople since that's where I track my calories. Then I just space about blogging here.

The GAG challenge is going well. I should be doing better that's for sure. But I'm at least losing little by little. For this week's challenge we are supposed to look over our goals and revamp them if necessary. Okay, to be honest, not sure I even CREATED goals?!!! So, now is the time to do that!!!!

Nutrition ~ This is a tricky one. I know that nutrition is 90% of the equation. I'm going to focus on eating clean. I will still track my calories, but honestly I'm going to focus more on eating clean.

Exercise ~ Back into strength. I'd like to really push forward and aim for some GREAT activity, including P90x as well as running and other cardio.

But to answer the GAG questions....

1. What goals should you revamp? ~ I'm going to focus MORE on eating clean (less carbs), I need to really do better on the weekends. More activity, more structure, and even a hobby would be smart!!!

2. What NEW Goals should you add? ~ Strength...P90X! I'd like to be 15lbs lighter..

3. What goals, just aren't working? ~ I don't think anything here. I mean, I'm still working hard with my running, and eating right... it's just hard.

Gag Week 1 Challenge

So, for week 1 we are supposed to create a Vision Board. I will be honest, I have NEVER done this...in all my years of trying to lose weight. I didn't want to do it either. Well, a part of me did, and a part of me didn't. I didn't really think it would do much good. But you know what. I had fun doing it. I also finally took some before pictures. It's almost a week late...but there can't be that much of a change!!! They aren't pretty...and I'm actually showing my tummy area, which isn't even the most problematic area...that would be my butt!! No, I'm not showing you that. Maybe when it looks better I might show you those before pictures, but yeah uh...not a moment sooner!!!


My VISION BOARD!!! ~ To live healthy, eat right, be happy with ME (especially in a swimsuit! LOL!


"Before" 155.4'ish

GAG Starting Weight

So I decided to join the GAG challenge again. Last year it seemed to really help me, and this year I want a better outcome!! I should go back and see how much I lost, or where I started ... just for fun!!!

Silly me forgot to take pictures first thing, so by the time I did I had already ate breakfast and drank water. So, the picture is off...that just means my first week should be GREAT right?! LOL!!!

Anyway...hope to get some starting/before pictures...but no promises. My life is crazy these days. I do have some pretty HORRID before pictures that I took a few weeks ago, but I will never share with anyone! LOL!

So here's my GAG Starting Weight Picture!
