April progress

29 Apr posted by

just took my april measurements. i lost 10.5 inches off my body this month for a total of 25.5 inches since March. I wish i had started taking measurements at my heaviest, but i didn’t. boo. the majority of the inches lost this month was in my midsection which is also my problem area. I’m happy with my progress so far but PROJECT FIT IN DEM JEANS starts today and runs till August 8th. I WILL FIT IN DEM JEANS!!! =D

You know what’s crazy? I felt like I gained weight. I was totally dreading getting on that scale and taking my measurements and when I finally did, it was a great feeling knowing that I lost that many inches. I don’t know why my mind is always so negative. We are our own worst critics that’s for damn sure.

I’m not gonna lie to you guys, I didn’t workout nearly as much as I did last month. I guess that’s why I felt like I gained. I’m actually surprised I didn’t have a gain in inches and weight. But lesson learned and it’s a new day. I just gotta move forward from here.

I also wanted to share this channel I found on youtube it’s called fitnessblender. they have some great workouts you can do at home. I HATE walking the track. like HATE it. it’s so boring to me just walking in a circle round and round. omg. so boring. I don’t mind doing videos at home and I haven’t got the confidence to hit the gym yet so i use youtube a lot for workouts. just thought I’d share…

what we’ve been up to…

6 Jul posted by

i promised more blog posts, I shall deliver.  so, what have we been up to? not much…

4th of July was a bust. I was looking forward to the fireworks all day long. then my husband and his big mouth ruined it for me.

so here’s a pic of pretty much all i did 4th of july:

sophia’s super cute pedi that i gave her. she loved it. i loved doing it for her. win/win! Hope your holiday was a helluva lot better than mine! next holiday?? MY BIRTHDAY!!!!! AND I CANNOT WAIT!!! i can’t wait to go out again! i went out last weekend with my favorite cousin and we had a blast!! i love going out. i don’t get to do it that often! so i sure do enjoy it when i get to do it! here we are, right before we left!

let’s see what else….??? oh i finally got my michael kors bag i’ve been wanting since last december!!! omg. i love it. LOOOOVE it. it’s big and it’s just so beautiful!

me and my bff made up. we had a falling out back in feb and stopped talking. she emailed me a few months ago and we said “sorry” but didn’t really rekindle anything. then outta the blue i just had the urge to text her and i guess it was at the right time because she came over for a visit shortly after and it was like we never lost contact. that’s the beauty of having a lifelong friendship. it’s kinda like being married, you want to kill them one min. then you love them the next! lol but they are always in your life. i missed her so much and am happy to have her back in my life where she belongs!!

this is our kids at the community pool:

we’ve been spending an obscene amount of time at the pool. it’s a good way to keep the kids busy and i like my new tan! i don’t look super pale and sickly anymore! yay!

here’s sophia at the pool (not the community pool, this is at my niece’s apt)

we went to visit my brother for father’s day. he lives in victoria. we live in houston. that’s about 2 hours away. my daddy was there. it was so nice to finally see them. i loved it. we had a really good time and i got to see my little niece! I hadn’t seen her since LAST summer! she’s so cute, y’all! I mean seriously, CUTE! and she’s tiny! teeny tiny! i love her so much. she’s a mean little booger, just like her yaya! (that’d be me!)

lately i’ve been into making my iphone as cute as it possibly can be. I think i’ve reached that point:

I’m pretty sure I have the cutest iphone on the freakin’ block!!

so that’s pretty much all we’ve up to. it’s been a great summer so far and i’m real excited for whatever happens next!!!

giveaway winner and randomness

3 May posted by

First let me start off by saying thank you to all of you who participated!! and the winner of the BURGER KING®- MyBlogSpark Giveaway is…

comment #7 was from YAJAIRA!! yay! Congrats, Yajaira!!

 

and now on to the randomness…

  • i have a sick kid home today. i think he’s faking though. lol he’s got an upset tummy and the #3′s. that’s what we call the diarrhea around here. =/ i let him stay home cause it’s no fun have the #3 at school!
  • we’re having a birthday party for Sophia this weekend. This is my first actual party for the kids. They’ve been with us for almost 4 yrs now and we usually just do the cake and presents at home thing, but since she’s turning 10,  and will no longer be a single digit, we’re having an actual party for her. only thing is she’s failing reading AND she got a referral yesterday for something incredibly stupid and got ISS (in school suspension) for a day. If I hadn’t spent an arm and a leg on this party already, it would be cancelled. this girl is going to be the death of me, I swear. she’s grounded indefinitely. she gets to be un-grounded the day of the party and on Monday, her actual birthday. And that’s only because I’m being nice.  every spring it’s something new with her. I dunno what it is about spring time that makes my kids crazy?!? good grief almighty.
  • my arms are so sore from yesterdays workout. and i weighed myself this morning and i was up 3lbs. WTF??? are you kidding me, body?? i swear I’ve been sticking to my “diet”! Maybe I need to drink more water. I’m gonna try to do that today. I finally got my blood gluclose numbers down. I actually hit 99 after lunch yesterday and 93 after dinner! woo hoo! now if only i could get my fasting numbers like that it would be AWESOME. today’s fasting was 115. boo.
  • I love hearing stories of people who reversed their diabetes with diet and exercise and losing weight. that is so inspiring! and it makes me want to do all of this even more! I can do it!!!
  • my husband’s last day of working this god awful shift is today! THANK YOU JESUS!! I’ll be so glad to have daddy back at home at a reasonable hour so we can all have dinner at the dinner table like normal. I missed that!
  • I get to see my brother and my niece Santina this weekend!! I’m so excited!!! I missed them!!
  • that is all. =D
