Shape Challenge – Week 15 – Still hanging on to that 145lb!
Weight loss feels like watching a Channing Tatum movie and eating buttery soaked popcorn.
I didn’t lose a pound this week. NOPE! Not a pound. Maybe an ounce, but I don’t count those until they equate to a pound. Did I workout? HELL TO THE YES!! Did I eat healthy? HELL TO THE YES!! Did I drink? HELL TO THE NO! Did I eat way too many healthy carbs versus my veggie/protein intake? HELL TO THE YES!!
So, there you have it. When you don’t balance out your food, the Diet Fairy bops you on the head with her cute little bitch stick. She flies in with her blue flowing dress (like the Good Witch Linda from Oz), smiling, birds singing, the sun shinning and you remember her approaching you then you awake with a HUGE knot your head, on the ground with a note attached to your forehead saying, “Don’t forgot to balance your food choices or you won’t lose any weight.” It did happen that way!! Hasn’t the Diet Fairy ever visited you? I think I might be going crazy…. it’s carb overload and lack of wine… I mean fruit.
SO.. we now know what I need to fix next week. All I’ve got to say is 145lbs feels likes buttery popcorn during a Channing Tatum movie. HOT! Dear goodness, I wonder what 130lbs will feel like. Mama, hold me back!! 130lbs – hold on baby, I’m coming!!
Oh, my BFF SHAPE came and visited me this week. Jenna Fischer was on the cover rockin’ a fit, HEALTHY, REAL body. It was very refreshing. I will try out her workout tonight. Also, there’s a recipe for Corn Chowder that’s only 178 calories per 2 cups that I can’t wait to try. I love soup in the fall!! It’s not online so maybe I’ll try it, if I like it and don’t feel like all the bliss left with the butter… I’ll post it.
Happy weight loss, gals. KEEP going!! No matter what the scale says.. a new week is a new goal. WOOHOO!!

Good for you! I’m closing in on that weight myself and aiming for about the same goal.. it’s tough. Period. At least I’m not alone, right?
