Jello to Hello Check In

It has been a little bit since I filled you all in with my weight loss. I am still taking my V3 as well as eating healthy and exercising. I can tell you this....I FEEL MUCH better. My numbers are not dropping as quickly as I would like but my inches are. I feel a difference in lots of my clothes. I will NOT stop. I am determined to get where I want to be. I have been eating lots of fruits and veggies and drinking nothing but water. 

I LOVE Social Media because it allows me to keep motivated by reading other blogs as well as Instagram. Whenever I feel like giving up I head over to Joni or Erica's blog and get myself back in check. Losing weight is NOT easy. If it was we would not have so many people who struggle with their weight. I am not a huge believer on saying that you have to be skinny to be beautiful but I know that if I am not happy with myself, no matter what size I am, I have to do something about it....and that is what I am doing. I hope you all will encourage me and follow me through my weight loss journey. :-)

52 Weeks of Rick: Wk 3

So today I am going to totally rant about my husband...

I have told you all before how Rick recently lost 130 pounds which is TOTALLY AWESOME. I am beyond proud of him BUT ever since he has lost this weight it is like he is some kind of know it all and drill coach about weight loss... It is  VERY annoying. I have lost 75 pounds before...The year before I got pregnant with Gabriel so I know a little about this process...

Anywho, last night I was running on the treadmill because I am determined to drop this weight by my birthday (April 1), and while I was running I was literally about to die because I was pushing myself harder than ever. I wanted to beat my time from earlier of running a mile in 13.38. I ran so hard and was able to beat my time by 14 seconds. HUGE. DEAL. FOR. ME. I practically slid off the treadmill because I was exhausted and I said I DID IT! I DID IT! He said Great Job! I smiled and sat on the couch. He said, HEY! Don't sit on the couch all sweaty. I said RICK HUSH! I am about to faint just let me chill for a minute (Mind you I am the one that cleans this place). He said OMG, You act like you just did something huge but you held on to the bars alot and put alot of weight on that....I said ARE YOU KIDDING ME!! AHH!!

I was furious. He was laughing because I got mad, and don't think he is a totally a-hole because he isn't but like I said, this exercise and weight thing he feels like he is top dog and it really hurt my feelings last night. He thought I was joking...Um No.

I love my husband so much and he is awesome BUT alot of times we joke with each other but this joking is not something I want to continue. It is bringing me down with my workouts and confidence. BOO!

You can't write a sweet, sappy post every week right? I am going to be straight up doing my 52 Weeks Of Rick so there you go...That's my thoughts on this week. Happy Thursday :-) And LOVE YOU HONEY!

The Polyvore Files

I told you guys the other day how I was in a terrible slump, so I decided I need to really do something about that. I have got to lose this extra forty pounds that's holding me back. I am taking the V3 which I love by the way, but I also I want to work out so I was looking to purchase a used treadmill. I haven't really found many nice ones on craigslist so my mom told me we could borrow hers until we got one and for that I am SO thankful. I went and got it today after my Panthers lost and immediately came home and ran a mile. I say that like I do it often but I haven't actually RAN a mile in years....I am super proud of myself and I know this is the start of something good.

I hope you will all follow along with me as I go about my weight loss journey. I will be sure to post pics as much as I can but to get a better idea of what's going on I would recommend following me on Instagram and Facebook

Being Honest..

If we are being real....I am going to show you real.

I am in a slump. A bad one. I feel totally down about myself and the only way to change that is to do something about it and I know that....BUT. It is hard.

First of all I chopped ALL of my hair off. I totally thought it would be cute and well....it's not. Some people have the face and skin for it but I do not. I am bummed. I used my hair as a shield and now I have nothing to hide behind anymore...I am totally exposed and I do. Not. Like. It. One. Bit. I am going to get my hair "fixed" tomorrow because in the process of chopping it off I also decided that dying it red would be hot....again. It's not, and it is now pink. Awesome.

Next thing. I am fat. Simply put. I need to lose weight and I have started the V3 again which I know will help me. I need to do this. I do not like feeling this way because it is not me. I am a happy person.

I am sorry for the crappy post. I know I always post upbeat things but if I can't be honest why even blog...

Send me good vibes please that my hair will turn out good tomorrow and I can kick this weight off!
