New Year New Me New Adventures

Dec 31, 2009

Happy New year all my fellow OH friends. I can't believe we are coming to the end of the decade and I look back at all the things I said I would do and I am happy to say that with 85% accuracy I have done what I said I was going to do, I mean I said I would loose a hundred pounds in the first year after surgery, I said I would exercise and not eat junk and I have, I said I would loose this weight and wait and year and then start a family and that is just how it has gone.

But now I will be honest I am finding myself slipping and loosing my heading something I am famous for doing. I mean I have lost hundreds of pounds but  eventually the same fate always find me back to my chubby unhappy counterpart so I can see this starting to happen again and it is my chance to make a choice and change. I wonder what has made me switch to not exercising and eating like crap this December maybe its the being pregnant  excuse I let things go to my head and all but that is just stupid and ridiculous I mean this is more time than any other to eat the best I can and be in the best shape of my life. I was so damn dedicated last year and determined to succeed. I mean I refused to have a birthday cake last December. Now this year, I ate cake, cookies, ice cream, sneaking food and have been drinking while eating all the things I know are the devil yet I managed to lie to myself to say that it is okay all month long because I am pregnant. I need to stop this freight train before it wrecks everything I have worked so hard to overcome. I was so close to reaching my goal and now I need to just refocus and make a new reachable goal for my health and for the baby.

So what better a time than New Year's Eve to come to terms with your faults an shortcomings and construct an active plan of being proactive to provide myself the best pregnancy and guilt free lifestyle.

Here is the Truth: I feel if I put it on the wall then I can actively keep track of my weight to make sure I make the right choices.

Pregnancy Weigh In #1 163lbs   (8weeks preggo) 11-20-09


My Proactive Plan for 2010

Week#1 I plan to start out walking 3x a week for the first week and eat breakfast, lunch and dinner. I plan to get up at 7:30am for work and go to bed by 10:30pm. Pack up all Christmas decor and put away nicely.
Week#2 I plan to walk 5x a week for the next week and eat breakfast, lunch and dinner. I plan to drink at least 8 cups of water a day and wake up by 7:15 am and go to bed by 10:15pm. I plan to go shopping for the best quality of yogurt and other bandster staples to insure I am getting the proper nutrition. Register for another Credential Class.
Week#3 I plan to walk 5x per week for this week and do yoga 2x a week. I will eat breakfast, lunch and dinner, drink at least 8 glasses of water and work on one Baby Project.
Week #4 I plan to walk 5x a week, do yoga 2x a week. I will eat breakfast, lunch and dinner, drink at least 8 glasses of water and work on one Baby Project.

My OBGYN wants me to gain 25-30lbs during this pregnancy. My goal is to gain 25 lbs of good quality weight that will shed off me the second the baby is born. I plan to regulate myself with making positive healthy food choices and focusing on the health of my baby and me instead of the number on the scale. I plan to be honest throughout this pregnancy and not allow myself to trick myself into thinking the dark side is an okay path to travel because I am pregnant. That is just pure fat, lazy, girl mentality that got me to 346 lbs in the first place. I plan to blog my journey as I have done in the past to make sure I follow the straight and narrow path and to maybe shed someone else with a little light along their journey so they know they are not alone.


Happy New Year!!!
