YES! YES! YEEEEEEEES!

Who has two thumbs and can fit in a size 14 dress? This girl! I haven't weighed myself because I don't want to get caught up in a number. I'm going by how I look.

It's been about 3 weeks and I can already tell a difference. My midsection seems to be shrinking and my legs are looking good. I used to get compliments on my legs because they looked damn good from all the years of dancing. Then they turned into fat girl legs. I had a fear that they wouldn't slim down. My arms are still fat looking. I know they are getting stronger, I have muscles that I never had before and find myself feeling them. I'm such a dork.

So all the changes are starting to happen! Even faster then I thought.

So I'm down to a 14! It's been at least since 2004 since I was that size. I have this gorgeous Audrey Hepburn dress to wear to a friends wedding in two weeks. I got it two weeks ago and couldn't fit in it. That's not the story today though!

So how are you doing?

Onwards and upwards!

I'll feel it in the morning...

What has two thumbs two babies and just did 1000 crunches? This girl! You read that right! I did a thousand crunches. Man am I feeling good. I've been to the gym and on the elliptical I'm burning at least 321 calories and then I'm doing about 20-25 mins of weight training. I went back to the gym on Saturday and have been back everyday except Monday.

This baby weight ( and beer and McDonalds and laziness weight) is gonna come off in no time. WHAT IS UP?!

Until next time...

Onwards and upwards!

May 17 bishes!!!!

That is the date I can go back to the gym. I have spent what little free time I have designing my workout and coming up with my playlist to listen to. I have actually given my husband the task of designing the perfect workout playlist full of 80's metal to keep me motivated to lift weights. I CAN NOT wait to get back in the gym.

I was too tired and to busy throwing up to workout while pregnant with Lucy. So I'm counting down the days until I can go back. I think it's because that is really the only alone time I get. No husband to nag...No kids...just me and my music and my daydreams of being a size 6. I've never been that small but I'm trying to be realistic. I don't want to be a size 0. I don't think that's even humanly possible for my body type.

The one thing I'm worried about is my eating. If I have no sleep I graze all day and then feel guilty about the calories. If I get sleep then I'm not hungry all day. I have to force myself to eat. The other day I had a cup of coffee for breakfast, water for a snack, coffee for lunch, water for a snack, three bites of lasagna and a few bites of salad. Oh and coffee for dessert. I'm not doing this on purpose! I swear...I'm not anorexic but I gotta remember to eat because I won't be a very good Mom if I start passing out all the time due to malnutrition. Also I want to lose this weight for good so I know that I need to eat to keep myself fueled through the workouts that I will be starting up.

Well that is all. Just wanted to touch base and get myself back on track with my blogging. I've also started trying to keep track of what I eat. That seems to be helping me a lot more.

Onwards and upwards!!!!

Momentary pause

I'm pregnant. AGAIN! So my quest to be a skinny girl is being put on hold. I plan to eat healthy since I don't want to have even more weight to lose. I will continue to workout just ease up a little. So my blog is being put on hold while I wait to hatch this egg.

Nice!

I LOST WEIGHT!!!! Oh man is that awesome! I'm down to 196. Sweet!!!! I love it I love it I LOVE IT!!! It's probably because it's hotter then hell down here. I don't care what it is I'll take it. That scary number of 200 is starting to get farther away. Come on Meggie keep on going! Look out Atomic Cheesecake photoshoot. Here I come! Thirty will never have looked so good!

Onwards and Upwards Homes!!!

Day two...

So, yesterday went actually well. I stuck to my plan. I drank all my water, ate everything I was supposed too and nothing I wasn't. I also went to the gym and worked out for about an hour. It felt really good to be getting all sweaty again.

Had my SB breakfast this morning and am supposed to have my mid morning snack but I think I will wait because I'm not hungry.

Well back to my cleaning. My house exploded again. I don't know what it is about when my husband is home but the house sure gets messy!!!! ARGH!

Onwards and Upwards.

Day one...again.

So I have started my day one of South Beach. I have everything ready to go. I'm looking forward to eating healthy.

The thing I love about this diet is it forces me to cook. I have a LOT of really really nice kitchen stuff. My Father in Law even commented on how I have a lot nicer stuff then most people who have been married for 15 years. Thanks in part to getting married and having very generous parents.

I love cooking because my husband likes the way I cook and always makes me feel really good about it. He blames me for fattening him up! Ha! It's really nice to have him smile and say "It's nice to have a home cooked meal." It just makes me feel like a better wife. My Mother was right. The quickest way to a mans heart...Hey I never cooked for any other guys I dated. So I guess you could say "He liked it so much he put a ring on it."

So I'm going back to the gym today. I still have a goal. Just because I didn't get cast in "Chicago" doesn't mean I'm going to role over and die. Oh No! Just the opposite. I'm going to get healthy because I don't want to be a poor role model for Lex. Also my 30th birthday is coming up and I want to do a pin up photoshoot for it. So I would like to lose 10 lbs a month. So I would be down 30lbs. Not as thin as I would like to be but then again the girls on the nose of the plan weren't stick figures! Okay so I'm going back to my coffee with splenda and milk (I usually drink it with vanilla creamer) and my vegetable quiche.

ONWARDS AND UPWARDS!
