I caved, so sue me!!

I know I said that I wouldn't diet or exercise throughout this entire experiment, but it looks like Canada may actually open at the end of July and I need to be ready for my brother's wedding! I think that by now, 6 weeks in, I've proved that Ultrasonic Cavitation DOES  indeed work even if you don't want to starve or workout. But now it's time to show how much faster and better the results will be when you follow a healthy eating and exercise plan.  So now the plan for the next 2.5 months will be to follow a healthy eating plan (I'm going to follow a Mediterranean Diet) and an exercise plan. I will hit my spin bike @ home 3 days a week, 4 if I have a really slow Monday schedule.  When the pool opens i'll add that in too! I LOVE the pool!!!! I'll have a smoothie for breakfast, a salad and chicken or fish for lunch (or hummus and pita with protein), berries and nuts for snacks and a small dinner.  My therapist and I have been working on my alcohol consumpt...

I don't even know who I am anymore!

This week i've been working on my alcohol consumption with my therapist. As i've said before I drink about a bottle to two bottles a night on the weekend and always have a hangover on either wednesdays or both wednesday and thursday.  I'm not proud of it, but it is another of my coping mechanisms. I thought for sure that i'd be hungover this wednesday because my husband spent the night down in Lacey @ his mum's (he's been helping her out since his dad passed), but I used the tools that my therapist gave me and here I am, the entire weekend without a hangover! I don't really know if drinking less will help lose more fat, but I imagine it can't hurt! Some of my best binge eating happens when i'm either drunk or hungover.  I don't remember if I ever told you this, but I am naturally a lazy person. I will put off doing everything until the last moment! But more and more throughout this journey i've been finding myself wanting to be more active. I...

Does this fat make my butt look big?

  Here we are at the end of week 4! It's actually been a good week, the sun has been out, I didn't overeat and I don't have a hangover!  I'm killing at life right now!! Looks like I've lost nothing on my upper arms, damn you bingo wings!!!! .5" on my lower arm, .5" on my bust, 1.5" on my chest, .5" on my waist, 1.5" on my hips, .5" on my midway. Hilariously it looks like I've gained on my thighs! And once again I've lost nothing on my knees or my calves. So not bad considering I had super greasy pizza last night, and a double cheeseburger and fries today!! I have to say that I am actually starting to WANT to workout! Seeing and feeling my body change has made me want to take care of it more, but I promised that I wouldn't to prove that you don't have to workout or diet for this to work, so I'll remain vigilant! But if they open my community pool up again all bets are off!!! What I do find funny is how hard it is for ...

True confession time people!

  This week was a really bad week for me! If I haven't already told you I am a Binge eater and drinker. I'm in therapy to overcome it, but this week was a really bad week.  I've been super busy at work, I've been scheduling people like mad through Groupon, but my prices are too low and I'm spending more money on product then I'm getting. I've since upped my prices, but now I'm worried that people will stop buying my Groupons.  So this week I was so stressed out that I ate a 16 inch turkey tom with cheese from Jimmy John's in 1 day. I drank at least a bottle of wine a night and right now as I type I am terribly hungover!! I forced myself to adult and go to Costco, I even cleaned the kitchen while my husband was working out, but I feel like crap right now!! I'm horribly bloated and I'm feeling pretty down on myself right now. My husband and I are meeting up with some friends from out of town later and I only feel comfortable in my sweats right ...
