Gym trying to break a bad habit!!

So I'm writing this post while in action on the bicycles, last post I set a couple of goals for myself that I didn't completely follow and I feel horrible. Today is Thursday and its my second day in the gym. Granted I didn't go Monday-Wednesday I know shame on me but I did workout!! I popped in my Jillian Micheals DVD and did that twice so I still got a workout in. Today my goal is just to get a good workout in because I don't workout on weekends especially with this weekend coming up being a study weekend for classes. So I just thought I come on here and say that everyday life hands us struggles but with dedication we can overcome them!! Just so you don't think it's super easy its ok to fail.....just keep going!!

Whoa there!!!!

Hey guys, I know it's been almost three weeks maybe actually just that. I've been a little busy but I've gotten back on track. I know this weight loss journey won't be smooth sailing so I don't really beat myself up if I slip....I just get back at it. I've actually been pretty good thanks to one of my exercise science classes that requires me to go to the gym at least one day out of the week. So no matter what I'm in the gym every Thursday but I've been going twice a week. I don't know how much I weigh exactly but I have went down. I seriously cried when I measured myself and it was at my goal for that week. Then there's eating I've been really bad :( I know shame on me. With me living on campus this semester last minute at that, it was easier for me to buy little things that were quick. Let me tell you my body has been reacting to the unhealthy foods. I've been sick and nothing would really stay down. I knew it was because of my eating but I'm back to eating healthy. I feel so much better. Sorry it took so long to write but I was just busy figuring out life. My goals for this week is gym everyday!! Eat breakfast....Drink more water...sweat more!!! XoXo, tMarie


P.S As long as there's progress...you doing no wrong....no one is perfect...

Back To School with Naked!!

So THE TIME HAS COME......*dun dun dun* cues dramatic effect. All summer you've been enjoying your life living it up. Going to beaches, pool parties and bonfires all of the things you look forward to during the summer. Go head reminisce..no take your time because guess what those days are officially over!! That's right OVER I know you don't believe it. All of a sudden before you look up your sitting in class listening to a boring lecture or if your still in high school at your locker dreading to go to that first period class. We have all been there and it sucks!!! So what are you going to do about it. Well your going to suck it up and get NAKED of course. Not literally, Hey put your shirt back on. I'm talking about every girls problem to that horrible first day of school. The only thing that would even make me excited about classes is applying my makeup in the morning and all the compliments to go along with it. I call this back to school feel good!! It's early in the morning you don't want to leave the comforts of your bed well get up you have school. Put some music on to hype you up then take a shower and all that jazz. Now the best part apply your makeup!!

Take that FAT ASS!!

Losing weight is hard!! There is nothing easy about losing weight. I say this to myself everyday, losing weight has always been a struggle for me. I've realized it's only because I've made it a struggle. Don't get me wrong it's no easy task a lot of sweat and tears (literally speaking). Shedding the pounds with patience and consistency it's capable because it seriously takes patience and consistency. No I'm not a health guru I'm just someone who wants to be in the best shape possible. So my week in review went better than last week that's always a plus. I set a goal for myself at the end of the week....guess what??? I accomplished it and let me tell you there's no better feeling. I'm so proud of myself there were times in the last week were I found myself saying I'll workout later, knowing if I didn't do it then it wouldn't get done. Hey I got off my ass and did it and it paid off. I like to measure my waistline, thighs and arms opposed to the scale. See the truth of measuring instead of jumping on the scale is, it tells me no lies I know there's nothing wrong or broke with a measuring tape. The scale on the other hand is like that two faced bitch in high school who smiles in your face but behind your back is making moves on your boyfriend. Yes that my interpretation you can see there's tons of animosity there. So I want whoever reads this in blog land to take away something from this post!! It's hard there will be times when you try to put it off but that little voice in your head tells your better......LISTEN!! It will pay off in the end and then you can say TAKE THAT FAT ASS!!

Revealed!!

Well I think I'm brave enough *sigh* time to reveal my weight and my goal weight. I think it's only right I want to be honest with whoever reads this blog and whoever is going through the same struggle as me. I realized I'm not alone thanks to some amazing people I follow on instagram!!! So here goes nothing...I hope you know how hard this is for me!!

My weight when I first started was 183lbs but then I lost 23lbs but I gained 26lbs back!! Which made me 186lbs. When I say this is my heaviest I've been ever it hurts me to my core but it's the truth and a lot of people don't believe me I'm 5'2 by the way.

I currently weigh 180lbs 6lbs down!!
My goal weight 120lbs

I know this will take time and patience be gentle world this is beyond hard for me!! XoXo, t.Marie
