Biggest Loser couples
I haven’t even blogged about this have I? What a loser I am. lol I’m not too sure about this season of BL. I mean I like it because it seems like
there is even more training being shown. But I’m just not connecting with any of the players. I think one of my clients hit it and Jillian did too.
Black team ate and won the $5000. She yelled at him to go home and earn the money faster, that so many people would pay that for one day at the Ranch. That hits this season totally. They are just whiners. Why did they even go on the show? I mean, I understand if they are going to complain when they work out, I do that too. But to whine and cry and pretty much not even want to be there.
Paying off
Amazing, doing what I tell others pays off. lol No, it’s all about being ready to commit and I’ve just not been there. I did a lot of the excuse with
the bad food being in the house. It took our pantry and fridge being empty for me to get under control. We’ve been down to just the bare basics for the last week because neither of us had time to go shopping. I quit eating the crap and it made me stop the emotional eating. Obviously, cause my comfort foods weren’t there. This week when I needed something a little extra, it was low fat ritz (that’s a splurge for me, lol) and laughing cow swiss cheese. Love that cheese. I even have some Krab i can put on it, mmm, that will be yummy as a snack today.
So portions had to get under control because the house didn’t have an abundant supply of food. I let the kids dish up first and that left me with much smaller portions. Oh and I’ve been over stressed. That is the only time I don’t eat. Every other emotion brings me right to food, but when the panic attacks start, I’m not hungry.
So it’s thursday and I have lost over 4 pounds in a week. Most of it I lost over the weekend. I’ll take it and keep it off, doesn’t matter to me how it came off. So I weighed in this morning 10:30 at 177.5. WOOHOO, comfortably in the 170’s and still going down as I was around 179 on Tues.
This morning I’ve slowly burned 375 calories and I haven’t done my cardio workout yet. I was just killing time while the gym is quiet. Tonight I have a consultation newbie appointment. Then hubby and his buddy are coming in to work out. I’ll hopefully be able to hit weights with them and then cardio later on with my client.
Runners High!
I found it again! I haven’t had the runners high in months. cardio has just been something I have to do and I begrudged it totally. Sat. I worked out with my favorite client and it was time to kick her butt. I found it and we went for it. We hit 3 different cardio machines to get to her 500 calories burned and we jogged/recovered on the treadmill for 20 min. of it. It was awesome!
Especially since I got all revved up in the morning so I had the energy to come home and muddle through daily tasks and bug my family with cheeriness. lol
