Thursday Accountability Report

May 29, 2014Victoria Elizabeth 4 Comments

I love my late days at work: the one day per week where I go in from 12-9pm instead of the normal 9-6pm.

Typically, I use the morning to sleep in or run errands. Today, however, I used it to get a kick-ass workout in!

I had a bit of a cheat meal for dinner (it wasn’t my plan, but I succumbed to peer pressure), so that negated some of my efforts. Still, though, I’m pretty happy with how the day turned out.

I plan to spend my ENTIRE evening tomorrow at the gym (I have no school, no work, and no plans), so I’m sure I will make up for those sugary margaritas and greasy nachos on Friday!

Bon appetit, my friends!

Wednesday Accountability Report

Awfully tired today, so this post will be short and sweet.

I didn’t make it to the gym, but I did squeeze in two 15 minute walks around the lake during work.

Hoping to wake up with some energy in the morning so I can squeeze a workout in before I head into the office at 11am.

I hope everyone had an awesome HUMP DAY!

Bon appetit, my friends!

Weigh-in Wednesday!

May 28, 2014Victoria Elizabeth Leave a comment

Despite yesterday’s caloric debauchery, today’s weigh-in was positive! Yay!

Here’s the breakdown of the morning report:

Weight: 125.4

Waist: 26″ even

Hips: 35″ (up slightly?)

Right Thigh: 21.25″

Left Thigh: 21″

Right Bicep: 9.75″

Left Bicep: 10″

The scale and waist measurements are down, and the rest have remained the same or only slightly increasing. Not exactly sure how my hips got wider (second puberty?), but I’m not stressing it.

Not bad considering I just started on Monday the 19th! I’m down almost 7 pounds in 10 days. A little fast, but I’m not doing anything extreme or obsessive, so I’m happy with my results!

Bon appetit, my friends!

Tuesday Accountability Report

Lost control with my eating today. For some reason I was RAVENOUS this evening: I couldn’t stop snacking.

As a result, I went way over my calorie allowance (yikes), so I’m nervous about my weigh-in and measurements tomorrow.

Hoping for a better day tomorrow!

What a difference a decade can make.

Monday (Holiday) Accountability Report

May 26, 2014Victoria Elizabeth Leave a comment

Amazingly, I avoided the barbecues and managed to feast on fresh seafood (steamed, not fried) for lunch today. I splurged a bit on sweets (had a serious craving today for chocolate I couldn’t seem to satiate), but my exercise today more than cancelled out my cheats.

I’m hoping the return to work tomorrow (yay, regimen!) will help me stay on track and get below 125 by Friday. So close!

Bon appetit, my friends!

I had hoped to make it to the gym this evening, but I ended up working from 10am to 9:30pm and I’m just too exhausted to squeeze any more into this day.

I cheated and had a little candy today (bad!), but managed to offset it with a healthy dinner and a couple of walking breaks at work.

Here’s how I did:

Not too shabby! Although, it’s probably not a good thing that I’ve had beef jerky for lunch two days in a row. Whoops!

Bon appetit, my friends!

Weigh-In Wednesday!

May 21, 2014Victoria Elizabeth Leave a comment

OK, with 52 days left until my 30th birthday and the clock counting down, here’s my very first weigh-in/measurement on my DIRTY THIRTY CRUNCH plan:

Weight: 129.6 (down from Monday’s 130.2)

Right Thigh: 21″

Left Thigh: 20.5″

Right Arm: 9.75″

Left Arm: 10.25″

Waist: 26.75″

Hips: 34.5″

I’m not sure what my ideal measurements are at this time (perhaps measuring my arms is pointless, but it seemed important), but I do know I want to be solidly in a size two by my 30th birthday. And under 119 pounds. I’m 5’3″, so that’s a HEALTHY number and very attainable.
