Will I hit my goal?

Day 3, woke up feeling GREAT!!!

Truly enjoyed my day yesterday. Got the house cleaned up, couches and curtains washed, laundry done, and made it to the gym after Donny got home from work. One of the things I have stopped doing since starting this journey was cutting out snacking, and as a stay at home mom that can be a huge hurdle to over come. Not just because it is easy to snack through out the day, but to eat the right foods. For those of you have kids or baby sit during the day, you understand that kids can be hungry ALL of the time. With Kiefer I swear one day he bearly eats and then the next he wants 8 full meals... I was bad at not wanting to waste food so I would just finish what was on his plate, which normally wasn't much, but it was extra calories. I started giving him smaller portions and he comes back if he is hungry or if he is done after 2 bites than I am not wanting to finish his food. Small changes are totally helping.
   A good friend of mine commented yesterday about numbers on the scale not being everything, I think that is so true, muscle does weigh more than fat, and I try so hard to tell myself that every time I step on the scale. For the last 10 years I have heard over and over that I don't look as much as I say I weigh. But when I go to the doctors they always comment to me about my weight and how I am in the highly over weight to obese due to my BMI. That can be very discouraging when you are told that when you think you feel good and can keep up with your kid (on most days) I want everyone to know that the reason I am truly wanting to loose this weight is to live longer and to show how awesome these itworks! products are working. Plus loosing just 10 pounds can help increase your fertility.
    So yesterday I wore 2 wraps on my thighs, this was an interesting task to say the least. The wraps move around even with clear wrap on, so I just adjusted them about every hour and moved them around on my leg. After one hour of wearing I took them off entirely and measured right thigh - 24.75" and 21", Left thigh 25" and 21" which means I had lost
Then this morning I measured again Right thigh 24" and 20.5", Left thigh 24.5" and 21" loosing another
     Last night was also time for another abdomen wrap, since this was my third wrap I was thinking that I might not get any results. Before putting the wrap on measurements were Upper ab 35.5", 39" middle and 40.5" on the lower ab, I wore the wrap over night and upon waking up measurements were 34", 37.5", and 39"!!! That is a loss of 4.5" overall in the 3 spots!!!!! If I had not measured myself I would have said that this girl is lieing through her teeth and that on a third wrap she is still loosing inches...
    Yesterday was also the first day I started taking fat fighters after I ate. You take 2 pills with in an after you eat and it helps. This is the wording from the website "Simply take Fat Fighter within an hour of eating, and it will absorb some of the fat and carbohydrates from your food so that your body doesn't! Powered by NeOpuntia (a naturally based ingredient made from the "prickly pear" cactus) and the It Works proprietary blend, Advanced Formula Fat Fighter delivers dynamic, clinically tested results for both men and women." I found that it made me a little more thirsty, but I was drinking water though out the day and just felt like a needed another glass. Not like I was dieing of thirst, but just needed some...
   I am also taking the Greens every morning, 2 little scoops that hold 8 servings of fruit and vegetable, just putting it in my orange juice and it is really easy to drink.
   Last think I took yesterday and truly loving it is the Ultimate Thermo Fit, you take this one with your meal, I tried to take it before my meal with a full glass of water, figure it couldn't hurt to drink more water... This is the words from the site "Fire up your metabolism with this naturally based thermogenic weight loss formula! Ultimate ThermoFit helps to:
  • Reduce appetite
  • Increase lean body mass
  • Boost metabolic rate to burn more calories
  • Increase energy levels"
It has Acia Berry in it and I love that, I have drank monavie and really like it. It is natural, so no added caffeine to give you the jitters or anything like that. I have tried so many diet pills in my past and I will never ever do that again. After reading more on these I thought I would try them out. I really love them, I am not as hungry and after being home with Kiefer for around 13-14 hours a day while Donny is at work I was exhausted, but last night when Donny got home I went up to the gym to watch DWTS and get my sweat on... After running for 10 minutes, jumped on the stair master for 30 minutes, jammed to NKOTBSB and felt great, tried to do some push ups got about 3 normal and about 10 girl style ones before I couldn't do anymore. SO that will be added to my challenge to get that number higher....

Just jumped on the scale and it said 175!!!!

Just a fabulous day over all and so excited for today. Donny has today off, so after finishing posting homework we have some errands to do and enjoy this beautiful day. GO BRUINS!!! They made it to the second round of the playoffs last night, so hubby didn't go to bed till around 4 or 5, not sure cause I had been asleep forever by then....
