We got back yesterday, exhausted but I still managed to do my #23 workout. Its so hard to get back in the groove even after less than a week gone. I did not meet my any of my goals on my GoWear Fit, but this trip was just a personal trip that was emotionally exhausting. Any way I didn't eat badly pretty much the whole trip. I did have one meal at On The Border, and one at Red Lobster. Aside from those two I had Subway which I will add I am so sick of Subway. Jared Fogal (I think thats how you spell it lol) is amazing, I know for a fact that could not eat Subway every day.. As it was I ate it enough on this short trip that I didn't want to eat food if it was at Subway. ANY WHERE BUT SUBWAY .. So I am done with that trip. I am tired of being in my car. I am tired of hearing the GPS say recalculating. recalculating everytime we had to get fuel, eat lunch, stop to pee, get a hotel etc etc etc. We did see lots of Border Patrol as we were going along our route in Texas. Had to stop and answer are you American? Steve was tempted to say SE Senor. lol. But this is about exercise right..
So yesterday I did #23 and today I did the final #24. I was elated when I got my six week challenge trophy and my completed six week challenge in six weeks or less trophy. Then tonight I did my 15k steps in my garage. I can tell you I am so ready to go back to the gym for my steps because this walking around in circles in the garage is for the birds or well in my case the garage is for my car. I will be starting a new Six week Challenge probably on Monday. and will set it to hard level. Hopefully my weigh and measure on Monday will have good results although with my vacation I am not so sure. I guess we will see Monday right?

I did a lot of working out today.. my arms are sore. lol. #21 I wish I could just do all the rest of them today but I cant. So my wii will come with me. I will probably weigh and measure tomorrow morning since I will be on the road on monday. So look for that tomorrow early in the morning. Everything is going great. I love the progress I am making and feel proud that I have stuck with it.
Any how I have to get off here and finish packing.

wow I am so tired.
I have been all over the place today and yesterday. Just getting done with the kids school partys and getting ready for our trip. Tomorrow is my EA Sports Active More Workouts #21 wahooo.... So at this very moment I have 4 workouts left in my six week challenge. My body has changed leaps and bounds since I started this journey. Like I have said before I am going to start another six week challenge when I get back from my trip.
Should only be gone a week. I am excited to to see my final weigh in which I might do on the 15th. I don't want to change my weigh in day just because I finish my six week challenge. I will also measure on that Monday too.
Partly because I don't want to take my scale and measuring tape with me on a trip. The OCD side of me wants to take it. lol. I bought myself a cheese stuffed crust pizza a few days ago and put it in my freezer, but decided I didn't need it or want it. I did have some ice cream though but didn't finish the bowl I dished up. I ate what I wanted out of it then threw the rest away. I know wasteful but I didn't want to eat it out of guilt. I did stay away from all the party foods at the kids school, most of them are easy to stay away from because well I hate marsh-mellows and gummy candy and hard candy. Do people know what that stuff is made out of. Well if you don't consider yourself lucky or unlucky lol. I like chocolate and cakes without icing. I don't care for cookies either.
One mom even brought really expensive cupcakes from "The Cupcakery" red velvet cupcakes but I refused to eat them. Ever notice how people are try to get you to eat junk food when you tell them your trying to lose weight? Oh come on just one won't hurt you. And why is that? hmmmmmm . No it wasn't one cupcake that lead me to be where I am today. It was too much of everything, it was eating things when I really didn't want it.
But the whole point is I ate what I wanted and didn't over eat. I didn't give in to people telling me oh just have one of this or one of that. Do I need to carry a cross to keep these food pushers away.
Back away evil junk food demons lol...
So on my GoWear Fit, I am so in love with it. Its so easy to wear and I love hearing it beep when I hit my goals. Just a chirping reminder that I am doing good things for my body.
GO ME
I am on the road to being the best I can be

#19
I woke up this morning even more swollen then yesterday. my face is so puffy that I can see my cheeks if I look down (face cheeks not butt cheeks lol). My allergies are going crazy, burning nose, watery eyes same old crap. I hate having an allergy problem. This isn't the worst they have been, the worst they have been was several years ago my eyes were swollen shut. now that was freaky looking. well I couldnt see lol but I can imagine what everyone else saw. So anyway I did my EA Sports Active More Workouts #19 of my six week challenge. not too too bad. I then followed that up with a lot of boxing. it was fun but my arms will be hurting tomorrow for sure. Then I went to my trusty garage and finished up my walking.. Now am done with my workouts for tonight. Thank God. I hope I wake up tomorrow and not be swollen. This is starting to get annoying.
So until tomorrow!
See ya later

weigh and measure
Ok so I did my measurements today. 1.75 inches lost this week. 1 inch in my abs, .5 inch in my hips and .25 inch on my left thigh (lol yeah only one thigh). I only lost 1 pound but I woke up and I am very very swollen. I suspect that I will drop a couple of pounds by tomorrow. I exercised a lot yesterday and I am sore everywhere.
I really got into my EA Sports Active More Workouts "Boxing" and "Step". I also completed workout #18, 6 more left in the six week challenge. So I decided to copy and paste my read out for my GoWear Fit. So here it is. You can see that the calorie burn for me yesterday was 3878! I didn't stop moving all day.. and I did 16306 steps. So I will go for now today. I may be back today but I will be back for sure tomorrow. I will probably weigh and measure again tomorrow after all the swelling goes away it just wont be an "official" weigh in.
first time didn't work right so here is the summary report from the GoWear Fit I hope it works if not I will work on it later
