Day 114 - Yesterday Swam for 30 minutes with my new ater resistant MP3!!...music really does help me work harder and go longer. Got about 1609 calories and stayed very well on track.
Day 115 I did Body pump and got about 2050 calories. What's the deal?? Can I just not eat junk food ever? I rationed my portions while at a friends house watching a movie, Then I rationed another and another...all while counting calories. Then this evening I literally was like, whatever I don't care I'm eating. Granted I planned to take in 1800 today, so Im only 250 above. And with Pump I broke even moast likely. But I don't want to stay the same! I want to be skinny! Are my body goals too strict...I feel like Im going nowhere. And with a week like I've had rationalizing and over calirie'ing...I am probably not going anywhere. But also...it takes time right? I'm giving my life till next April. I'm trying to stay motivated and not discouraged at least till then. Back to my junk food binge...DANG!!!! I just frustrate myself sometimes.

Here's to a better day tomorrow. Thankfully I am doing so much better at not going over as much. But stilll...room for improvement!

And what are YOU doing about your muscle?
Interesting quote from the book "Healing through exercise"
"A given muscle is ONLY AS STRONG as it NEEDS TO BE and is highly adapted to it's usual tasks....When a muscle exerts less than 20% of it's maximum strength, it SHRINKS."
Wow...a muscle is only ever as strong as it needs to be.....so in other words, obviously I'm not gonna have much muscle at all if all I do is sit at a computer all day...or simply fix dinner...or just lay around watching the tube....even the simple mundane things, just aren't enough are they?
AND...why do I need muscle?
"When joints hurt and the bones ache, most people would rather stay in bed. But this only leads to more trouble. Perhaps lying down might spare cartilidge, that smooth and elastic lining of the joints that makes sure your bones do not grind painfully on each other when used. Yet it is NOT ONLY cartilidge that helps your joints. The surrounding muscles also guard and protect joints because they cushion the jolts that damage a moving body. Thanks to muscle, cartilidge absorbs fewer shocks.
For this reason, physical INACTIVITY is like poison for the joints. The more muscles waste away, the more bumps and jolts directly affect cartilidge, gradually wearing it down. This way, bones start to ache, people become less active, muscles shrink more, and cartilidge gets battered even hard - not a happy trend. "
Hope we take this to heart and continue to lift weights and do activities that challenge us for the rest of our lives!! (Jack Lalanne style!!)

Weigh In, Day 110 - Amber
Weigh In today was 141.6. LOL It's just doesn't go anywhere! (i guess there are worse things!)
Day 110 - Had about 1835 calories. We had homemade BBQ for lunch. So, I made myself and extra veggie kabob (should made 2 xtra but I didn't listen to my better judgment). Stayed away from bread. Had a few chips and guacamole. Salmon, and 2 small portions of sausage and burger. This meal kicked my calories up very high. But as I was counting, I also might have overestimated. I figured it was better to overestimate than under. I stayed away from sugar and only ate fruit or the granola I made with Agave. I did have a few sips of homemade sweet tea and some yogurt.
So I'm not sure if I'll ever get lower in my weight...I thought I could use about a 5 or 10 pound loss. But it's not changing much. Granted I did just give up in June (DANG IT!!!) Here's how my week's are looking:
I lift weights for an hour twice a week.
I swim and or walk for 2 to 3 times a week.
I eat from 1600-1800 (or try very hard to do this) calorie daily. I'm on the high end if I lift weight, on the low end if I swim or rest that day.
I stay away from refined carbs (white pasta and breads) and sugar other than fruit and some granola or yogurt.
I try to drink at least 8 glasses if water a day
I try to eat A LOT of veggies and fruit every day.
(Although the last 2 haven't been meeting those as well as I'd like.
So, I'm not sure, really if it would be healthy for me to drop 5 or 10 pounds. I feel like I'm taking all the right steps to be healthy and get in shape....maybe I'm just building muscle and that's why my weight is stagnant?? The internet...depending on the site, says I need anywhere from 1900-2100 calories a day to maintain. I have calculated my calorie needs on paper manually before and the number was 2050. So, I haven't decreased my calories a ton. But I was getting dizzy spells in April/Mayish from only eating 1500.
I guess maybe I'll continue this for another month or so and decide if something needs to be tweaked we'll see.

Day 109 - Amber
I counted around 1700 today. Didn't exercise much. Just went for a short walk this morning. And has a fabulous massage in the afternoon. And then I think I got sick a little from not drinking enough water and having all the toxins and stuff that was massaged out maybe? eh. Anyway, that was today. A good 100 more than I wanted to eat, but less than my maintain caloric intake. Yay. And I even ate a salad today!

Day 108 B - AMber
Officially ate 1736 calories.....GREAT!! Ate at Applebees and had a low calories dinner, and only 1 mozerella stick and only 3 fries and only a sip or 2 of Oneida's margarita. My max was 1800. I could have a couple blueberries still!!
Body pump today kicked my butt as usual. Think I pinched something in my shoulder...massage time!!
FINDINGS: So I've been researching sweeteners with low glycemic indexes...ie: those that won't spike your blood sugar and let you crash after the sugar high. Agave nectar seems to have a low glycemic index. So I'm gonna attempt to use that instead of honey. Since honey is about the same as sugar on the glycemic index scale (although it does have more nutrients). I know the low glycemic index thing is good....I just can't remember why. So I need to research that.

OK, Bout to leave to run errands, then body pump, then out of town we go! Don't know if I'll have internet access....if not, I will try very hard....WAIT.....NO.
I COMMIT TO KEEP TRACK OF MY CALORIES, TO KEEP THEM IN RANGE (1800 today and 1600-1700 tomorrow...depends on the type of exercise) AND MAKE SURE I GET IN SOME SORT OF EXERCISE SATURDAY.
DO IT.
Brooke...help me stay accountable....maybe want to send me a text?? And do you need any help being out of town this weekend and staying in control. Let me know what I can do!!

Day 107 - Amber
Looks like I landed at 1640...but sometimes I just doubt my skills at counting calories. We'll stick with that. And tomorrow, I must do much better at counting ahead of time not 3 or 4 foods later.
Went for a walk this morning with Caleb and a swim tonight (about 27 minutes swimming) I'm ready for bed!!
Pump tomorrow. Sweat and tears. Do it.

Day 105-Amber
Today was body Pump. I have another praise!! Lunges are getting easier!! Soon I can actually add weight...it's so pathetic that I don't do them off the step or with weights or anything. Just flat on the floor. I pretty much gave up lunges when I was in high school cause they hurt my knees so much. I was probably doing them wrong.
Additionally, my triceps are getting WAY stronger and so is everything else! I've gone up in all my weights (except lunges) for all the tracks: Squats, chest, triceps, back, biceps, shoulders!!WAHOO!! I am feeling rather encouraged today with that.
Then there's my caloric intake.
I left the house at 1055. Had a salad I predicted would be about 350, but added fajita meat. And had chips and guacamole with our friends. Definitely about 280 in chips. So I am guessing my intake today way about 2135ish.... I'm pretty bummed about that, I was really hoping to stay at 1800. More control tomorrow!! Thankfully, body pump still kept me either maintaining or possibly even losing calories-wise...i doubt losing...

Day 104 - Amber and weigh in
About 1375 calories. Gosh I was just tired today. I kept myself busy doing the daily chores and errands. But exercising stunk. I swam - warmed up, stretched and did about 10 laps. (17 minutes) After that I was pretty much spent. I need to get better at swimming.
But here's a praise!! My left arm is building up the muscle memory for swimming!!!(probably has a lot to do with lifting weights hard core in Pump and actually building muscle) It's still weak and sloppy, but I could see my arm functioning better and more properly than usual yesterday. Still a LONG way to go, but that is such an encouragement in my swimming! Not to mention 10 laps was unheard of in May. In May I could do 10 half laps....IE 5. I'm still struggling to get 10, but I'm doing it!! Struggling through it!!
C'mon Amber! Just DO IT!...wow isn't that NIke's old slogan?? Woo!
Weigh IN was at 141.8

Day 103 - AMber
OKie dokes! Today is pretty good. Landing at about 1500. Just rested today. Got a salad in at lunch, and veggies in my eggs at dinner.
Tomorrow starts week 2 of hard core month!! I have to say minus eating a few too many nuts this week I did REALLY good! No sweets excepts for creamer in my coffee and some honey in the jello salad I made, and of course I eat fruit. And I got in 5 sessions for exercising. Gee my back and shoulders are so sore from weights!
On to reads:
Susan Somers claims (and references clinical studies to support claims) that nix the low/no fat idea so many of us cling to to lose weight. She claims, based on research that SUGAR is the problem we don't lose weight. And fat and proteins are just fine. She claims, carbohydrates - like white breads, pastas, refined white flours, and all the other processed sugary foods we eat turn into sugar once in the body. And if the sugar cannot be used as energy it is stored as fat. She has her own weight loss program called Somersize. I don't know much about it yet but you go through levels. Level one is all about getting to your goal weight.
So, she makes A LOT of claims about FAT not being the body's worst enemy...but SUGAR. And even references clinical studies where people who are on low fat VS low sugar diets are compared. And the low sugar diets (IE: no can sugar, sorn syrups, white flour, white rice etc...) has lower triglycerides (the stuff in the body that can aid in heart disease) and lost weight better.
Anyway, I don't know if I buy into it yet....but she's had a TON of people do her program and succeed...but I'm just not sure for how long. Additionally, she seems to make the claim that you can eat all the fat you want....I'll keep reading to verify, but that seems awful on lowering risks for heart disease and general cholesterol issues...hmmmm.
But one thought, my biological father apparently is doing hormone replacement therapy through Dr. Hotze. And apparently, a big thing he has changed in his diet since, and lost a lot of weight and feels like a younger man, is reducing/eliminating the flour in his diet.....hmm.....interesting. I actually want to try eliminating my refined flour intake and try as hard as I can to just stick to whole grains and see how that goes...maybe it'll make a difference?? But I am hesitant to yo yo diet for sure.
I've always heard that we don't ACTUALLY need 5-11 servings of grain everyday, and that really our food pyramids should have a base of fruits and veggies. All I know is, you can't go wrong eating A LOT of fruits and veggies
More on this to come!!

Day 101, 102, 103 - Brooke
FAIL!! This is what happens when I don't keep track, blog daily or make sure I know the calories I am eating all day...
Friday I did great, landed at 1300
Saturday - FAIL! I was doing ok until hamburger time when I downed so many cheese doritos I lost count, oh yeah and I was dipping them in onion dip. THEN I let Becca talk me into making brownies...well we were at the beach so it sounded easy enough. After drinking some sangria my will power was gone and I think I ate around 3 brownies. AND ice cream....yum. I am guessing around 3000-4000 calories for Saturday, damn I suck.
Sunday - not starting off so good. pancakes and chilis BBQ Chicken salad have landed me at 1300, I guess I should skip dinner. eke I will probably nibble on something low in fat tonight but we shall see...maybe I can go work out.

Day102 Amber
Woo! exhausted from body pump so im headed to bed!! Ate about 1800. Probably burned a good 300+ maybe 400.... Got some weight lifting gloves today, too. Very excited!

Day 101 - Amber
Lost count of calories but I think it was around1800. I was hoping this would be a bit lower today. :-( But I did a good job of eating well. Said no to ice cream at a friend's tonight. Ate a rather large serving of salad. Opted for 2 turkeydogs and only at 1 total bun to save calories...
I'm a little bummed that I was trying and my calories are still a little higher. Glad I worked out though, and glad I did sprint in the pool...they kicked my butt.
The Crazy Makers...I need to reread this whole section on aspartame. But basically what I've gotten out what I've read is thus: (keep in mind this is what i think i read....what I am summarizing)
The Sweet Brain Poison:
Aspartame was originally put on the market for limited use before it was officially approved, but the FDA said "go ahead" as a temporary, we'll try it out sort of thing. Then when the FDA did approve it the makers of Aspartame actually introduced it. (Hmm...right, like it had never been around....) They talked it up said it was all natural etc etc. And it is....but not. Aspartame - Nurtisweet or Equal, is a man mad sweetener hundred of times sweeter than sugar. It was thought to be harmless because it is made up of 2 naturally occurring amino acids. Unfortunately, one of the amino acids in large quantities can reduce serotonin - a calming agent in the body (or block it...can't remember) and the other amino acid in too large quantities provides abnormal excitability....and all of this is going on IN THE BRAIN. The health things range from vision issues, to headaches. But the main point is: with the amount of sugar free items we are stuffing in our bodies, it is likely we are drugging our brains and bringing our bodies to unnatural states of health just because we are trying to find an easy fix. (IE: we don't want to give up chocolate pudding, and soda, and shakes etc etc...so we opt for the next best thing : tha man made sweetener with no calories.) Unfortunately, one thing we ALL know in life is, you never get something for free and most things are too good to be true. And we have to remember The makers of the chemical Aspartame are in this business to make money.
They say it's OK, and to get brain damage, one must consume A LOT. More than is possible. But they also differ at times than what the FDA even says. The FDA says women who have high levels of Phenylalanine shouldn't consume aspartame, but the makers say it OK (reference their site.) A lot of truth boils down to this: 1: it is man made and we are putting it in our bodies....probably not the best idea. 2: Remember that everything in America is a business and it's easy to get sold. (that's why I'd like to even look up the references in this book....so many politics in everything. EVERYTHING is a business. EVERYTHING is political.
At the end of the day, do you really want to jack with your brain's state of being? Throwing in more amino acids that reduce the calm hormones that help you for a little bit of sugar? Some yes. Me?....I'll stick with fruit. I hope!
That's what I gather...don't even know if it's concise...but I tried!
I'm a little bummed that I was trying and my calories are still a little higher. Glad I worked out though, and glad I did sprint in the pool...they kicked my butt.
The Crazy Makers...I need to reread this whole section on aspartame. But basically what I've gotten out what I've read is thus: (keep in mind this is what i think i read....what I am summarizing)
The Sweet Brain Poison:
Aspartame was originally put on the market for limited use before it was officially approved, but the FDA said "go ahead" as a temporary, we'll try it out sort of thing. Then when the FDA did approve it the makers of Aspartame actually introduced it. (Hmm...right, like it had never been around....) They talked it up said it was all natural etc etc. And it is....but not. Aspartame - Nurtisweet or Equal, is a man mad sweetener hundred of times sweeter than sugar. It was thought to be harmless because it is made up of 2 naturally occurring amino acids. Unfortunately, one of the amino acids in large quantities can reduce serotonin - a calming agent in the body (or block it...can't remember) and the other amino acid in too large quantities provides abnormal excitability....and all of this is going on IN THE BRAIN. The health things range from vision issues, to headaches. But the main point is: with the amount of sugar free items we are stuffing in our bodies, it is likely we are drugging our brains and bringing our bodies to unnatural states of health just because we are trying to find an easy fix. (IE: we don't want to give up chocolate pudding, and soda, and shakes etc etc...so we opt for the next best thing : tha man made sweetener with no calories.)

Stay Away stupud weight!! - AMber
I was 141.8 today. This week has been a week of NO cheating. YAHHH!!!!!I've eaten plenty of protein (chicken shrimp, lots of nuts) a lot of veggies and fruits. And some grains. Plenty, too.
Luckily I have a great husband. I convinced Caleb it is high time we both start being a little more proactive about working out and eating well, because I need our whole family to be on board not just the singular person of me. (it wasn't really convincing...more like " Caleb, this is hard core month...so we're gonna be hard core...ok?") So, he worked out yesterday, and so did I. And our plan is to workout today and tomorrow.
This week has been pretty good, I'm excited He's on board....skinny boys can get away with eating a lot of junk...heh...but hopefully we're changing together.

Day 100 A - Amber
I was able to swim almost 15 minutes straight today!! That's a big deal. I say almost because i had to stop for a millisecond between each lap and take a huge breath....i don't think I have mastered swimming properly by any stretch. But this is really better than anything I've done!! I just told myself..."ok, you're gonna swim 10 laps. Do it." i did about 25 minutes total.
More swimming tomorrow and Pump on saturday. Now to read my Jack Lalanne book....I'll post if I learn anything new!! (Jack Lalanne is like the father of fitness....he's 95 and still in great shape. He started a gym when the rest of world and government thought it was unsafe to lift weights, and stupid to make people pay to come work out hehe. His book is called Live Young Forever.)

day 98 - Amber
Ate 1527 calories. And an additional 190 in the middle of the night....my stomach was upset and i was trying to settle it with water and nuts. But I might add that to today's total still. Ate VERY well yesterday!! No crap. No sweets other than blueberries and bananas, I even, thank God, resisted the glazed walnuts...I tried to make them OK, because they were nuts, but they were covered in ooey gooey candy coating, so I finally decided I wouldn't be sticking to my goals. And besides, I told Caleb, this is hard core month...so, I gotta be hardcore!
Did body pump. Kicked my butt. I'm sore everywhere.
Went to the library!!!! OK These are the books I got:
Live Young Forever (by Jack Lalanne the uberfit 95 year old)
The Eating Well Diet (from the makers of the Eating Well Mag I love so much)
The Crazy Makers (has sections in it for children, teens and adults and what we should eat and why certain foods we eat in America aren't so great for us)
Fat Families Thine Families (all about doing health and nutrition AS A FAMILY!)
Healing through exercise (not 100% sure im gonna even crack this one cause the rest are so interesting)
So.....that's a lot of books! and they are all pretty fat! So, we'll see how far I get. And I'll post what I learn!

Week 15 Weigh IN - Amber
Well, I currently weigh a big fat 146.6. I made some very poor choices in June.
So far today though, I have spent time with JC and swam. Got a couple things on my commitments for the day list done. let's see if I can get the library and groceries done.

Week 15 Weigh In - Brooke
I have removed everyone else but Lee and myself from this chart. If anyone else joins and is doing it to lose weight I can add them as well :)
I gained .6 lbs last week, and I am only upset with myself. I should have eaten better. My problem is when I am tired, I am lazy and I eat badly. I need to somehow get more rest all the time or control that problem.
My current weight is 172.4.

Day 96 Amber
Noooooooooooooooooo!!!!! It's s not dead!! I am back from the Dominican Republic!! It can't die, cause I need help losing my marriage weight and make healthy choices.
I commit to going to the library tomorrow and finding some books to answer my health questions. Up to this point, I've tried using moderation to help ward off OD"ing on stuff, but as soon as I leave for a week or have a crazy week I eat whatever I want. Tomorrow I'll weigh in..and it will be a depressing 148 or so I guesstimate.
I need to find answers to the things i listed a couple weeks ago!
"I'd like to be better educated in:
WHY my body needs weight lifting and cardio.
WHY vegetable and fruit are a necessity and what happens if I don't eat them.
WHAT is happening on the inside of my body when I neglect it through eating "bad" food...or food high in fat...sugar....salt...etc
WOULD IT REALLY BE BETTER not to eat sweets at all(minus fruits yogurt etc...)? Would what I feel is a possible obsession, love, or even addiction be over if that happened?
WILL I ever stop giving in, and be hard core??"
Let the discipline ensue!!
Spending quality time with God and time with Caleb and choosing to exercise and eat well are on my list for this week. In addition to cleaning the spare room and making it into a usable office. And most importantly, choosing to rest.
Tomorrow morning, I commit to waking up, reading my Bible and praying, and journaling about the DR trip, then swimming at the gym. Then planning some meals for the week and grocery shopping and library time. I commit. I'll let you know if I get it done tomorrow.
I am so sweet talked by others who don't have the same priorities as I in food..and let my emotions dictate my food intake. NO!! Tomorrow, so candy. NO sweets other than fruit. No crap food. I commit. Brooke please help me stay accountable. Can you ask me how I am doing tomorrow sometime? I'm weak.
