I Have a Game Plan

So plateaus..  yeah  BIG SUCK.

I tried switching everything up.  I tried everything I could think of.  No Good.  Still fat.

So I'm essentially starting over.  I've been eating at a maintenance the last few days and will continue it for another week in hopes it resets my whole metabolism.  Maybe?  And then I'm hitting the South Beach Diet hardcore.  I needed a sugar detox anyway.  My husband has requested to join me for at least the first two weeks and I'm excited and scared at the same time.  Excited that he's doing something with me, scared he's going to turn into a sugar-withdrawn, cranky, bear that growls at me all day.  He's also agreed to hop on board for some fitness challenges I'm starting on Monday, the 27th of this month.  I've taken part in the past and they were really fun:

SO...  hopefully that will have me singing again.  Singing songs of weight loss victory.  Only time will tell though.

Stupid weight.  Stupid fat chick.  *sigh*  Makes me want to kick people.  All those who say "Eat less.  Exercise more."  IT'S NOT ALWAYS THAT EASY!

New Week - New Program - New Strength

I'm starting a brand new program today.  Well...  programs. I've kinda meshed a few programs into one big "Kick the Fat Chick's Ass" super-program.  Here is what I did today:

• 5 sets of crunches. (9-9-6-6-35)
• 30 jumping jacks (I haven't done those in FOREVER)
• 1 mile fast walk on a level 8 incline (15:00)
• 1 mile speed bike ride (3:20)
• 25 Ab Roller crunches

I'm also planning on doing my long walk later once I can feel my legs again.  It's on an incline too. It's a nice walk at about 3 mph, for an hour, while watching television.  Just work enough to keep my heart rate in the fat burning zone.  I need to know I'm in that zone more than ever.  Due to my increased workouts in the last month, I have been hungry constantly.  I can't remember ever being hungry before.  My metabolism must have awakened from it's decade-plus long comatose state. I'm eating right in my calorie range but dang!  I feel like a pig since I'm constantly eating. Three meals and three snacks a day.  Here is my meal plan for the day:

1. two slices of peanut butter toast
2. fage 0% greek yogurt with local honey
3. two fish tacos and steamed broccoli
4. bratwurst in a bun
5. grilled bbq chicken breast with broccoli, corn, and white chocolate pudding
6. popcorn with cheese powder sprinkled on top
