What?? Another post?

Hello again! I'm not sure where all my energy is coming from this week. Maybe it's due to the fact that I was home 4 out of 5 school days because of "incliment weather." Honestly, I've been home so much this week that I've really started tapping into things that I've let fall by the wayside.

I was looking through my old posts and some of them really made me laugh at myself. I'm pretty sure I thought I was waaaaayyyyyy funnier than I was/am! Oh well, some of my old posts make me giggle!

I do have to admit that I need to work hard to get back to being that girl, with that foucs, that drive, and that determination! Below are links to a few of my favorite posts.

I think my absolute favorite thing I ever did was a pullup..... I know it seems crazy, but I've gotten lazy and lost the ability to do a pullup completely on my own. This post has a short, choppy video of that first pullup. OH..... sorry it's sideways. Janelle and I could not figure out how to rotate that darn video from her phone to my computer!

I also really like this post. After I lost 100 pounds, Janelle and I decided that we should do some fancy pictures. I like this post because I was so happy! I did lose about 35 pounds more after that, but that first 100 pounds was awesome. Truth.... I (AGAIN) need to get off those 35 pounds.....

And this post. This is the post that started the whole thing.....

I think I need to me more focused on this blog. I really think it kept me accountable! Hey! Find me on Facebook!

I'm a bad blogger!

Hey folks! I have been swept up in the world of Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.....

I've kind of abandoned my blog on a regular basis. BUT.... I do manage to hop on here from time to time and do a little reading. (Reading blogs about weighloss is way better than reading the real news!)

I must admit, I am on here posting today for other puposes as well. I am enrolled in a technology course at my local community college. I have to renew my professional teaching license and I'm no longer working in a k-12 setting. I moved into adult education and my PD there does not count toward my PD for licensure renewal.... go figure. Anyway, I welcome a brush up on technology.

SOOOO, I do have some 2015 goals. I have no problem going to the gym. I love going to the gym. I love lifing heavy. I'm just a hot mess when it comes to food. I love, love, love food. I love eating! I'm slowly getting back on track. I'm doing pretty good. Last week, I was with Janelle and Jenna doing meal prep for the week.

Here we are making chicken and veggies for our lunches.
Ohhh and a crap load of sweet potatoes! 

We are getting together again this week to make more chicken and veggies....... surprise, right? I have a different recipe. So chicken and different veggies!

It was really fun and really fast. We prepped meals for 3 people in about and hour and a half. We even screwed around for a while in there. It would have taken me so long to get all of this ready by myself. Divide and conquer, right?

I keep thinking I need to make this a regular thing in my life again. There is something nice about telling my random workout and food stories to people on the interent!

Almost 5 weeks in

Hello! I'm almost 5 weeks into my meal plan/calorie counting/schedule eating. I have lost 11 pounds in that time.

I knew I would quickly be successful at counting calories. I just needed to get back on routine.

It is a lot easier to update my FB page from my phone and I often think of funny things to say!

OMG! Long time, no see!

Hello, hello! So, let me give you the short version!

I met an amazing man, and I got busy! I tried to keep up the blog for as long as I could, but I was too happy and busy to pay attention..... so sorry! I've missed my blog and reading other blogs!

So, in a relationship for 2.5 years, happy as can be, but a little too lax on calorie counting! Anyway, it's time to get back to the grind.

I have gained some weight. I hate to admit it, but it happened. Being in a happy relationship is a bad for my eating habits. The good thing is, Josh loves me no matter how I look. The bad news is, I'm unhappy with how my clothes fit and how I feel. I worked very hard to lose all that weight, and I'm not going back.

In the past 2.5 years, I have not had a single problem maintaining my workouts. I have even started new ways to workout. I've been taking cardio classes and step classes along with my regular lifting workouts. It's the food that has just killed me! I hate to admit it, but working out and nutrition go hand in hand. I can't have one without the other!

Anyway, blogging is very time consuming for me, but I need something else to keep me accountable too! I'm going to try to blog, but I will really just be over on FB and Twitter. I am much better at short updates and posting things that happen right away!

Hopefully I haven't lost all of my readers! Find me on facebook: https://www.facebook.com/notaneffingdiet
