Gettin' My ISH Together!

Hello long lost blog! 

I am so sorry for my month long absence! 

I was reading Chubby McGee on Saturday and realized that I had probably become a "dead blogger"; a blog that still exists but hasn't been updated in some time. The last post I had was on January 31st announcing that my best friend and I were going to be working out together. We have been mildly successful over the month of February. At one point we had both lost 6lbs each. I know that is NO longer true for me. 

Tomorrow we are back at it with new weigh-ins and this time measurements will be taken. 

I have also joined up with Allan for his new challenge that is running through June 15th. According to the challenge I am to consume 112 ounces of fluid a day and eat/drink no more than 1500 calories a day. 

In addition to Allan's challenge I am challenging myself to actually accomplish the

Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred DVD. I want to do each level for 10 days each and see how much I lose in inches over the 30 days. I will be doing the 30 day shred and starting the Couch to 5K training program in tandem. 

My new goals are:

1) Being under 200lbs by June.

2) If I deem my tummy to be flat enough by April 30th I will be getting my belly button pierced, for my 25th birthday!

3) Lose 25lbs by my 25th birthday.

4) Send my W.I.D.T.H to Jack by March 9th!

If I could accomplish number 1 by my birthday that would make my year, however I don't want to be too over zealous! 

I am looking forward to the next couple weeks of soreness and constant peeing as I up my exercise and fluids! 

WATER WATER WATER!!!

Day 1-Jan 30, 2012

Yesterday was the first day of my friend Kelly and my plan. 

She has given me permission to list her starting weight with mine:

Rusti: 245lbs

Kelly: 190lbs

We have 126 days left until our vacation in June. 

We did Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred Level 1. It kicked our asses.

Today I am very sore! My legs, abs, arms and chest are very sore. Everything I do hurts. My muscles are screaming. I can't wait to do it again tomorrow! 

Today I am going to do Couch to 5K Week 1 Day 1.

A plan!

We have been in our NEW house for almost a month now! 

We have been eating at home more often, eating healthier and leaner. 

I am down to 245lbs from a high of 263 at the end of 2011. 

Now that I'm down almost 20lbs I am ready to add in an exercise plan.

So far the plan consists of Couch to 5K on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday.

On Monday, Wednesday and Fridays my best friend Kelly and I are going to get together and do workout DVD's. She has a Jillian Michael's one and I have

30 Day Shred

Boot Camp Bikini Body

Flirty Girl Fitness 

P90X

and some yoga ones as well.

I am very excited and I have a goal:

I absolutely love this butterfly bikini that I found at Walmart! I want to be in it so bad this summer I can taste it! I have plenty of other things in my closet and draws that are also goal items. I have a size 8 pair of jeans, a size 13/14 dress and multiple other items that used to fit. I am so excited to be back and to be getting moving! I am very happy with where I am at and where I am going. Water water water, fruit fruit fruit! Here we go!

Also a big WELCOME BACK TO Allan! I am so glad you are back, 

feel free to call me out if I need it!

Yes, the Holidays are Over!

The Holidays are over! 

We bought a house and have been very busy moving in and unpacking. I am very happy 

to announce that since Dec 28th I have lost 10lbs. 

Now that we are in the new house I am able to be in more control of when and what I eat. I am also putting in place a plan of action to get moving. 

I don't have internet at my house yet but that should be resolved soon.
