Hello all!

My goals are as follows:

Goal 1 - 5lbs 154.8
Goal 2 - 5lbs 149.8
Goal 3 - 5lbs 144.8
Goal 4 - 5lbs 139.8
Goal 5 - 5lbs 134.8

One goal down, 4 goals to go!

I am loving this!

Update: 7/25

I started my you know what so I will not be weighing in for part of next week due to possible bloating and annoyingness. I still plan to curb the cravings and eat healthy because for the FIRST dietbet ever (I'm on my third or fourth) I have not even come close to achievingy goals. All I do is give up and I don't want to do that this time around. I finally have a goal in my mind and I want to stick with it.

Oh! And it will be 5x this week that I have walked hone from work. That's about 160ish calories each time :)

Update on DietBet


I have not been updating on this blog as much as I should but I am trying to fix that. On Friday I weighed in at 156.4 but after the weekend, I weighed in at 156.8. Last week I was good at exercising every day with my coworkers and then I went to the gym 3x that week.

   Today, I walked home from work which was 1.35 miles and I loved it. I feel like I should start doing longer routes just to mix it up a bit but today was a really nice day to walk, to be honest, I've wanted to walk from work to home for awhile but I guess I just haven't had the motivation to do so until today.

   I am currently locked out of my place because my boyfriend took the car and I had the house keys on it but oh well, at least it gives me time to update.

  This week, I hope to lose another two lbs or so. I have about three lbs left to go until I reach my dietbet goal and I so want to exceed that goal. I don't want to get a head of myself but I feel like this MAY be the year that I hit my goal weight overall. :)

Day 3

Yesterday, I did good. I did T25 with my coworkers and than went to the gym for a little over an hour. My boyfriend picked me up from the gym with a friend and we went to Cumberland Farms. I went inside and solo wanted a muffin or a candy but I tikd myself no and ended up getting a caesur salad. It was really good and I forgot about my want for sweets and candy once I got home.

   What has really helped me is when I think about my goals and what I want to accomplish, step by step...I think about the people that I am competing against and what they would do different if they were in my shoes and it works for me.

   I weighed in today at 157.0, which I am assuming is all water weight. I can't go to the gym tonight but I am doing the T25 workout with my coworkers.

I hope everyone has an awesome day!

Day 2

Yesterday I did T25 with my coworkers than I went to the gym for almost an hour and a half! If I can do this 4-5x a week, I should be set with the weight loss. I ate well yesterday and last night bought healthier foods that I can bring to work. I also made a watermelon/banana/strawberry smoothie last night that I could take this morning. So good!

Today: (lunch)
Turkey wrap
Grapes
Watermelon
Luna Bar


Its only day 2 of this diet bet but I feel great! Can I stay this motivated for a month? I sure hope so😆

Day 1

This is Day 1 of the DietBet challenge. I am excited and nervous but I know this is the right thing for me to do at this time. I am sick of feeling the way that I do. I feel unmotivated and all I want to do is sit around on my days off. I always think to myself that I am going to work out but I never actually do it. I do workout at work for 25 minutes but if I am going to beat this thing than I have to go to the gym after work and don't mess up my workout with poor dieting. I weighed in today at 159.8? Ahh, that is horrible! But I am willing to do something about it right now! 😋
    I hope that everyone has an awesome day!

Until tomorrow!

Day Before - Diet Bet with Scola Dondo!

Its been awhile.

I joined another DietBet. Now, instead of betting 10$ I bet 25$ and if I do lose 4% of my body weight in a month (6.3lbs) than I get a free pair of Nike sneakers that I can customize myself. That is a pretty good incentive!

I have feel off the band wagon with good diet and exercise. Actually, I exercise at work but than that gets destroyed by my bad diet. I would like to finally get out of the 150s. I have struggled with getting out of the 150s for 3 years now (no joke). I am currently 157.6 and if I do lose the weight than I will be 151. That would be amazing!

I miss the feeling of feeling amazing. If anything, I feel sluggish and tired.

The dietbet starts tomorrow and to be honest, I am scared because I don't want to fail but I'm ready to lose and feel great!

Wish me luck!

I have done well :)

Sunday I walked for 15 minutes on the track near my house
Monday was an early morning workout at the gym
Tuesday it was a beautiful day so I went to the track and walked for an hour - my legs were dead!
Wednesday (today) I went to the track again for another hour
Tomorrow and Friday I will probably head to the gym because it is supposed to rain
Saturday I will head back to the track :)

I have also been eating really well. I have skipped on whoppie pies, italians & other junkie foods at work that I normally would have devoured. It has been a good week so far!

So I weighed in and I am 156.8 lbs!!

Alright, until tomorrow !
