Apparently my 2 pound gain last week kicked my booty in gear because over the weekend I was able to lose those 2 pounds.  I even went for a run on Sunday.  I am the laziest person alive on Sundays so that is a big deal for me. 

While the kids are asleep (I am a nanny) I just did my cooking for the week.  I made zuchini lasagna and pesto chicken.  I am going low carb these days so I used the zucchini instead of noodles.  It is de-lish.  Can't wait to eat some of this for dinner tonight.

I don't want to be #10 again!!!

Today I am taking kickboxing at the gym which is a such a fun way to get your workout in.  Hope everyone is having a good Monday!

Ok... I am all over the place in this post but that's ok :)

@kristina12: I'm on myfitness pal as westcoastblonde. I will add you today!

I went back to the gym this morning after being a little disappointed in my results on Friday. It certainly was difficult after not going for a few days. I really wanted to just turn my alarm off and stay in bed for that extra couple of hours, BUT I got my butt out of bed and went hard!!

My motto for the week is: "The only way I'm going to loose this butt is if I loose the buts!" Haha yes I am that much of a dork...

Keep up the good work ladies :)

@M.Ruder: Congrats on #2 :) 

I wasn't good this weekend, but I didn't go to a buffet, so that's always a win for me.  Back on track this morning!!

@Twizzle11: Have you checked out my low calorie list?

Today is a good day, I am wearing a pair of capri's that I had to take out of my bag of pants that were too tight to wear!!!  Whooohooo!!!!

@mattsgirl813: Thanks :)  Are you eating a lot of salty foods?  Or are you drinking gatorade when you work out (can cause bloating)?  It sounds like you are retaining water for some reason, can you kick up your water intake?  Or try drinking green tea?

@mattsgirl813: Green tea is supposed to be good for your metabolism too, so I hope it helps you :)  I add equal to mine, I can't drink it without sweetener!!  Have you been working out this hard for a while now?  If not remember your body is breaking down your muscle and repairing it, which can also lead to your body retaining water, don't get discouraged!!!

I am 0.3 pounds away from being in the 100's.  It's so close I can taste it.  I have been trying to get here for 6 months (kinda got a slow start....)  My body takes forever before it starts losing weight, then once I start it generally just falls off.  I really hope that's where I'm at now.  Weight weight go away.

@KatNYC2011: Sorry to hear you aren't feeling well. I think being home sick is a legitimate excuse for not sticking to your routine! Get better soon :)

@jessjess: Good job :)

As far as myself goes ladies, I'm having one terrible day. My girlfriend's husband left her this morning so I was late for work with all her crying phone calls. My boss then yelled at me and put me to tears. I was literally 1 minute late and I'm such a good employee I thought he's understand. I guess he's dealing with other crap that is really getting to him.

Anyway, this lead me to having an emotional lunch break where I decided to stuff my face with McDonalds....bad, bad, bad! I haven't had McDonalds in sooo long. That grease felt good though lol.

On to the gym tonight. I called right after I ate my heart out and booked in a spin class tonight. Oh geez..

I fell off the wagon today!  I need this day to go by quickly so I can go work my buns off at the gym.  My daytime schedule is changing too so I think I am going to have to start getting up at a disgusting hour for the gym since I can't work out during naptime anymore.  Bummer.  I like working out twice a day so it will be ok.  I love starting out the day with a workout, it just means that I have to get up at 4:30am.  I have done it before so I can do it again.

I cheated a little last night :(  I ate the frozen yogurt that my hubby bought for me the day before.  I always tell him not to put candy on it and he just had to sprinkle some on it :)  Oh well it wasn't that bad.  The bad part was that I started eating it during my last 5 minutes on the elliptical. I've been good today though and I just got through lifting weights.

How's everyone else's day going?

@jessjess: You fell of the wagon today?  What did you do?  Maybe it's not that bad!!

@CruiseWedding2010: It wasn't that bad but my body puts on weight if I even look at the wrong kind of food so it freaks me out when I get off my plan at all.  I am such an all or nothing kind of person, some times I just need to simmer down!

@jessjess: Well then don't beat yourself up over it, don't forget you still have to enjoy the life you are currently living!!

Good morning ladies!!!  One more day to weigh in - be good today!!!!  I had to pull a pair of jeans out of my bag of too tight to fit clothes again this morning!!!!  Love it :)

I actually made it up at 4:30am and got my butt into the gym. I plan on taking Zumba tonight at the gym. That is assuming traffic allows me to get there on time... this is LA. I find that I make better decisions throughout the day when I workout in the morning. Hoping for some success on the scale tomorrow. ::crosses fingers:: Has anyone done Zumba before? This will be my first time. I love group exercise classes so I hope it goes well!

@jessjess: Let me know how Zumba goes because I've been meaning to try it myself...

I'm trying so hard to behave before the weigh in tomorrow... lol

@mattsgirl813:  I just don't get it with your weight!!  It seems like you are really watching what you eat and you are exercising regularly!!!  Maybe you are like me I bloat the week before, the week of and the week after my TOM.  That sucks!  Are you writing down everything you are eating?  Maybe there are some calories sneaking in there, I know when I add up calories in my head I tend to calculate on the low side.

@jessjess: LA you are really close to me I'm in San Diego :) 

@west.coast.blonde: I'm behaving during the day, but at night I really want that glass of Moscato!!!!

@CruiseWedding2010: I am moving to the Milwaukee area in a few weeks and want to get down to San Diego before I leave... because I can.  I just have to figure out what I want to do there.  Anything cool there?
