Blech. Feeling crappy tonight. I felt good all day except my tummy was a little achy late this morning. I was headed to the gym and turned around to come home because I felt nauseas. I had tea and water today then when I got home I decided I should have juice. I think that is what made me sick. I tried to water it down a bit but I'm afraid to have any.

I think tonight I will take it easy. I really wanted to go to the gym but I'll just take tonight off and go for the next few days.

Total weight loss since January 1 is 7.6 lbs. Not too bad. I can feel the difference in my body. Today I really felt it in my legs.

Another pound down. This morning when I woke up I didn't feel lighter but the scale said so.

Tea and water again. I am going to try to have juices tomorrow, I just didn't feel like making them and I wasn't hungry - not even for my delicious tomato juice.

Worked out tonight, Zumba class then a Butts and Gutts class. Loved the 2nd class. She really kicked my ass. I had to come home and take a hot bath because I know I am going to be sore in the morning. It's worth it, I want to work hard so I can really see results. I want to see muscle definition.

So tired. Need sleep. Going to try to stay up and watch the new Real World but don't know if I'll be able to hang.

I am down a total of 5.8 lbs in the last 6 days.

Tonight I did 25 min on the treadmill and some strength training.

I drank tea, 2+ litres of water and tomato, celery, parsley cucumber juice with spices. I love my spicy concoction.

I can see some fat loss in my inner thighs today. It's so weird to see where the fat leaves from. I am hoping for a bigger loss tomorrow but I will not be upset because any loss is good I am just impatient and want it all off now.

I have not been hungry at all which is quiet amazing to me. I cooked a steak for my son tonight with sauteed onions. The steak I could care less about since I haven't been eating meat for a while. The onions smelled really good but I didn't want them at all. It's so weird but also very liberating to have these feelings. I also cooked curried chicken the other night and same thing, no cravings and didnt want it at all.

I feel enlightened today, even with all of the crap I am going through I am not letting it bother me like it used to. The old me would be depressed, crying and eating everything in sight but the new me is going to let this situation figure itself out. I love the new me.

Tea and water today and yesterday.

I don't even feel hungry. The hunger passes after a few days. I have thought about certain foods but I am not craving them. I also cooked for my son but didn't even want to taste it. Saw some food commercials and thought about how gross fast food is. YUK.

48 min on the treadmill - 2.5 mi a few intervals of running for 1 min. at a time but didn't want to over do it because I was feeling a little lightheaded and didn't work out yesterday. Tomorrow is Zumba class! Love that class.

Tummy feels smaller and a little tighter. My whole body feels lighter. Couldn't weigh myself this morning because I was on ACK. Weigh in tomorrow. So excited, will not get discouraged by a # on the scale though because I feel good. NO BM again and very little of anything else (butt pee, lol).

Stressful weekend. Very emotional, cried a lot. This morning I woke up with a plan. I will not let anyone let me feel that way again.

Tomorrow is the start of a great year according to my horroscope. I'm happy. This is going to be a great year.

The Butt Pees

No BM but I've had the Butt Pees today. Not all day just a couple of times this morning.

Today I had lots of tea and for dinner I had green juice
celery
2 roma tomatoes
cilantro
romaine
with spices as last night's spicy tomato juice. I love the flavors of this juice.

I didn't work out because my back has been hurting since last night. I think I over did it at the gym. Tonight I am just resting.

I am down one lb. from yesterday. I'm impatient and wanted a 3 lb loss but 1 lb is great. I like to weight myself every day. I do not obsess over the scale I just like to see progress and if there is no loss then I know to cut back (this is when I am eating, not fasting because while fasting I know I will loose).

This weekend will probably be Master Cleanse or water because I won' t have my juicer with me, at least not on Saturday. I should be back on Sunday night.

I am not hungry and I was in a pretty good mood today. Work was sooo busy but my day went well.

New Year, New Me

I have neglected this blog for long enough. I am ready to start again. I am working on myself this year. It's all about me.

I have maintained my weight loss but fell off the raw wagon a few times. I am back on with a vengence now.

I am juicing right now. My goal is one month. After that I may go longer I'll have to decide what my body wants at that time. I have heard that you should not fast mainly for weight loss but that is my reason for fasting. This year I will get to my ideal body weight. I think around 14o.

Today's juice
Super Fat burning
1 grapefruit
1 lemon
cranberries
water

Tomato
1 tomato
3 roma tomatoes
cilantro
celery
cumin, cayenne, salt, garlic

Some say not to use salt on a fast but this is my fast and I can do it however I want.
I also had lots of water.

I went to the gym
11 min stair master
15 min eliptical
35 min strength training
45 min treadmill with intervals of running
I AM A RUNNER!! I've been wantin to run for a few weeks now but I've been scared of a few things. 1. Running in public - who really wants to see that? I was thinking I was too fat to run but I don't care what anyone thinks I am doing this for me. 2. I was scared I was going to fall and go flying off the treadmill. Guess what? I didn't! I just started slow - 4.5 mph. not too bad. A few times I cranked it up to 5.2. Ha. Felt really good. I did one minute of running and 3 or 4 minutes of walking 3.0 for 20 min then I walked at 3.0 for the rest of the time. Next time I will try for one minute and 15 seconds or so and work up from there. I was thinking I should do a 5K. OK, won't push it but it's something to work for.

Thats it for now.
