This past week we had our second to last weigh in and although I knew it was not going to be a good one I was not expecting what I got.  I had actually gained some body fat.  Upsetting is an understatement.  This past month I just let the fact that my trainer has not kept up with her commitment again to take it easy on myself in the exercise department.  I am very envious of the relationships that the other contestants have with their trainers.  They seem to be on the same page with what being a part of this contest is supposed to be.  To get healthy through diet and exercise.  They have been to the weigh ins for moral support and encouragement.  I do not even know if my trainer has looked at one month of the magazine to see the results.  I am getting back to the commitment that I made to myself and will get back on track and continue to reach my goal beyond the contest.

I know that I have not blogged for a few weeks so I have some catching up to do.  So here goes…

Had another weigh in yesterday and although I lost weight I did not lose any body fat and I even lost some muscle.  So to describe it in a word “frustrated” would just about sum up how I am feeling.  I just feel that I am not getting everything that I should be getting out of this experience.  I didn’t really work out with my trainer much last month although I have been doing some form of exercise everyday.   I have tried to work out a meal plan that works around my wants and needs.  My husband has been working out with me also.  I am just hoping that this month will be better and I will see lower numbers where they need to be.

On a happier note I was able to get info a beautiful blue dress two weeks ago that I could not even button and if I say so myself I was looking mighty good.

Well that is all for now.  I promise not to be gone so long next time.…..

Blog Day 12 – Days 18

This week was a rough one.  This was the first time since I started this adventure that I felt discouraged.  I haven’t really had a defined workout plan and do not have a well defined nutrition plan.  I hope to have something in place sooner rather than later.  Working out is great as long as you have a general idea of what you are going to accomplish, but not knowing just discourages me. I worked out with the intern on one day for 30 minutes.  I also worked out with my trainer two more days during the week.  One training day, I forgot my water bottle so I had to stop a few times during my cardio to go and get some water.  I also found out that day that apparently it is annoying when you bring your water to work out with your trainer.  We worked out lower body doing lunges, squats with medicine ball and reverse lunges.   I am just feeling that I am winging it on the days that I do not work out with the trainer.  I am looking to start this next week with a bang and just try to get myself moving every single day.  I guess for now I’ll just keep trying to eat right and find someone to help me with the nutrition portion. I’ll also ask again to get a more “defined” workout routine in place.
