HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I am happy to bring in the New Year 105 pounds lighter. 

A great  reason to celebrate by any measurement.

But my journey is not over just yet!

Starting back up Friday, January 1st., 2010 I am back on program 100%

My goal is 135 pounds – 20 more pounds to lose.

If you have a few or a lot to lose… join me on January 1st for motivation right here on my Blog “Its Melting Off” , where I will be blogging my day-to-day progress.

I will be using Medifast Meal Replacements on their 5&1 Meal Plan. That’s 5 meal replacements and one Lean Protein and Vegetable meal.

I am going to schedule time to stretch every day for 10 minutes. Yoga  and weight training twice a week and cardio at least 3 days a week for 20 to 30 minutes!

Sounds like a lot going on… and it is!  I’m worth the time, energy and effort.

So join me daily starting New Years Day for my first entry to a slimmer me.

My hope is you get excited and motivated to get moving and improve your health along with me! So come on….it’s going to be a great year and decade for all of us!

All The Best To You In The New Year!

 

Shopping — instead of just looking. After losing 100 pounds I can buy clothes off the rack now. I shopped for a new bathing suit.

On Vacation in Mexico — Shopping in Cabo December 2009 (new smaller bathing suit)

Did you know Cabo has a Harley Davidson store right next to Ruth Chris Steak House?  Yes – Cabo has it all from the funky little stores to the fancy designer stuff.  It’s all here.

In the mall just off the marina there is a bathing suit store. If you’ve been to Cabo you know the one I’m talking about.  Well as a former size 24 they were off limits to me. Oh I’d still go in and have a look, but they didn’t have anything that would fit my plus size body.  Well today was different. I went in to shop!

I am very happy to share with you my new 3 piece bathing suit!

Now shopping is actually getting fun!

The top is an 8 with an underwire built in, and the bottom is a 12.  A lot better than a 24!  I love the genie pants that match. (medium)

I bought a swim suit that before I could only dream of wearing.

When I got back to the resort after walking and shopping for half a day, I have to tell you… I hit the gym.  This is how I’m going to keep my weight in check and build some muscle mass.  The “old fat me” would have run down to the pool because it was still happy hour, and order up a couple of high calorie, sugary drinks before the bell rung.  The new me…would rather spend that hour happily working out.

I did just over 20 minutes on the treadmill doing an interval of: walk 3 minutes and then jog for 5 minutes, repeat this 3 times. Then I did light weight training for about 40 minutes.  This felt good knowing I am making the changes in my life that will promote good health, and keep my weight off for ever!
