JK- Update on the sTrEaKiNg!!

Hello Divas!  I may not be able to finish this post for now...I just wanted to say "hi" and I'm so proud of everyone! 

My streaks have gone pretty well...  I like to look at the glass as half full... Even though my streaks haven't lasted more than a few days yet, even with the interruptions I manged 5 workouts last week and healthy eating -most- of the time!  I'll try to post details soon! 
Thanks for your accountability and support!

STREAKS/GOALS

Hahahahaha I'm updating again! Here are my streaks/goals for the month of March. I am getting a late start but better late than never!

• Tracking and staying within my calories

• Exercising everyday!! (I made a goal to run 60 miles in 4 weeks)

• Drinking 3 cups or more of green tea a day (on top of my daily water consumption)

• Taking my daily vitamins

Phew thats a lot, but I'm holding myself to it!

I hope you all are doing well!!

EP - WW update

Well I finally decided to join Weight Watchers. I officially joined last week and today was my first weigh in! I have to tell you that I have been sick all week. Usually that would mean that MOST people LOSE weight - well for me - being sick makes me ALWAYS GAIN WEIGHT. A ton. So this past week - knowing that I needed to count points and stick to my new healthy lifestyle - I "TRIED" to be good with my eating this past week and I guess it worked! Today was my first weigh in and I lost 3.4 lbs! Trust me - no one was more shocked then me. I do have to add that TOM was visiting last week as well - (time of the month) but I still weighed less then my original weight before TOM. And even though I am not big into the meetings each week at WW - I have to say that it really helps me focus for the upcoming week and helps me realize that I can do this for another week. The biggest benefit of WW is that it really helps me be really aware of what I'm putting in my mouth. So lets see what happens this week. I am still a little sick but I'm on the tail end of it - and hopefully means I can work out!
Hugs to you Divas!E ~

Christi: I'm Streaking!!

***********FIRST AN UPDATE***************

On February 26th I sprained my back at work which is why I haven't been on here. I've been in so much pain its not even funny and even though my doctor says its better for me to get up and move it is SO hard because of how much it hurts. :( Luckily there is no nerve damage or anything but I am out of workout commission until I get a release from my doctor. This of course has pushed me back into my depression so I'm on yet another emotional roller coaster. What kill me will only make me stronger right?

I still have a lot of personal issues going on as well. My ex is fighting for joint custody of our boys and is fighting the divorce, work has been a lot of political bs, and my home life is strained big time (living with my mom/step dad and two small boys is not always a happy home) but I am pushing on.

Not everything in my life is bad right now though...I GOT A FULL-TIME JOB!! Guess where? A brand new nutrition center!! I am actually going to be working with dieticians and health specialists AND leading a few fitness classes and get paid for it! WOOHOO!!! The office won't open until April but I am going to be running the entire office. I am both scared and excited at the same time. I'll be sure to keep you guys updated.

************NOW ABOUT MY STREAK*****************

Since fitness is beyond limited I am going to do a nutritional streak instead. My streak for March is going to be tracking my food on SparkPeople and I'm hoping here in the next few weeks to do the Crazy Sexy Diet detox. So mine is all about the grub. I definitely want to make healthier food choices and watch my sugar intake and as of the 1st I've cut out coffee. Instead of having coffee every day I'm going to treat it as a special treat I can have every once in awhile. I've replaced my daily cup with herbal tea. :)

I'm excited to hear what everyone else's streaks are!!
