Restarting of my workout program

  Well a couple of months ago I hurt my Shoulder pretty bad, so much so I had to keep it in a sling for a little while and every time I moved it, it hurt like hell so I couldn't really workout much which i though would be ok for a few weeks because I was down to about 136 lbs which I was totally excited about because it's the lowest i have been since I been pregnant with my second son. Well between my shoulder getting better and the holidays I put on almost 10 lbs and I am TOTALLY PISSED at myself for it!! So I started Jillian Michael's 30 day shred again this Monday. I want to take measurements and weight-ins every Wednesday because I didn't on Monday and remembered to today so it's Wednesday. 


Today's weight-in and measurements


Weight: 147 lbs
Chest: 38"
Upper Arms: Left 11 3/4"  Right 12"
Waist: 31 1/2"
Hips: 43"
Thighs: Left 23 1/2" Right 23 1/2"


I came across my weight-in measurements from when I first started working out back in March of 2010. I don't think I really started trying trying til I found Jillian Michael's 30 Day shred because the videos I did before I sorta didn't understand what to do half the time. Anyways here is those results I found


March 16 2010:


Weight: 176 lbs
Chest: 40 1/2"
Waist: 35 1/2"
Hips: 47 3/4"
Upper Arms: Left 13" Right 12 3/4"
Thighs: Left 26" Right 25 3/4"


I know at the moment it may not seem like a lot just looking at the numbers but to put it a little into perspective I went from a size 16/18 pant size to a size 10/12 now as I write this. My goal weight is to reach between 115 to 120 lbs (for my height of 5'2" that is in the norm) But I don't want to just lose the weight I want to tone up. That's why I am going back to Jillian!! I love her!! I hope to reach my goals by swimsuit season if not then I better at least be there by my Birthday in which case I will be hoping my peeps get me gift cards to clothes shops (like Victoria Secrets for example) because if I reach my goals I will most def need a new wardrobe to go with my new body. I at the moment am not on any diet plans I am just working on watching what I eat and trying to eat more healthier choices :D This spring I will be starting another Veggie garden and hope i can grow some that will help with good eating habits. Like Spinach (Fresh spinach on sandwhich's ,salads anything is AWESOME!! I can't stand cooked spinach though : P cucumbers again of course, maybe a few other things. I still need to look into it and then see about getting the Hubby to make me some above ground roll able garden boxes or something lol Anyways I better get going I have to go grab the kids from school soon. Thanks for reading : )

Cub Scouts

I think I want to try and make a Cub Scout Dvd yearbook for my two sons Dens next year for Christmas. We just joined in Oct this year so it would be hard to put together a decent DVD yearbook for them so I figured it can range from December 2011 to December 2012. I have some DVD software I been wanting to use for a couple of months now and all I would really have to do it take tons of Photos (No problem there :) Make some covers for the DVD and buy cases and DVD cds for the project :D I really want to do it so I think I will make sure to keep this in mind for all cub scout events which there are a ton of coming up like Pinewood Derby, Ice skating, backyard Olympics, blue & gold banquet stuff like that not to mention the activities that each individual den will have as well. So I hope that I can make this happen I think it would be a really cool Christmas present tradition from the boys to their Den friends :D

On another not we went to see the Capitols tree as it passed through where we live the other day and it was pretty exciting to be a part of History!! We got to sign the banner, ride a horse and carriage, my oldest son who was there made a ornament and we all got a small prize. It was nice and not overly packed like I thought it would be.

November

Well there is so much going on this month!! My oldest son had a school play this past Thursday, we did Cub scouts Olympacks this morning, have a party tonight. Still working on Cub scout badges for both of the boys but I am happy to say my Youngest will be getting his Bobcat badge at our next pack meeting that he worked hard on earning!! We also have Thanksgiving right around the corner as well and we might be playing host to several people this year which is fine by me :D I love cooking and am very excited to be sharing my Turkey Dinner with my family!! Well I have to get going I have things I need to work on and plan for the boys and finish updating our cub scout blog we started as a family :D


In case I don't write before then Happy Turkey Day all!!
