Accountability Agreement...What Have I Done?

Well I've gone and done it now!
Who in their right mind makes an accountability Agreement with the creator of your fitness program?
Yup, you guessed it...
Me

So here's the agreement:
I lose two dress sizes by my next progress date of August 20th or
I leave my favorite thing in the world, next to my husband and dog,
MY CAMERA
at home on my trip to Ireland.
WHAT WAS I THINKING!!!!??????
Well maybe it's exactly what I need to get my butt in gear!

Since I made the agreement, however, I noticed that I'm more focused than ever!!
Yesterday was weights and today was a long walk.  Tomorrow is a walk on the beach for an hour.

And water, water, water, water!!!

Oh Nikon, how I love thee!

Okay So Here Goes Nothing

Third 90 Day Photo!!
I get that you can't love every picture of yourself.
And that it had been a long day and my husband is a great sport.
And that my dog wanted in the picture.
But I really don't like the way I look in this picture.

But a commitment is a commitment and at the end of the day there are worse things than looking like a dork in a picture!

Third 90 Days!

And slow progress is still progress and pictures don't lie.

So another 90 day journey begins.
After talking to Deb and Angie from Release today,
I feel good about a new start to this 90 days.

August 20th, here I come.
Cheers!!!

Can't Everywhere Be A No Judgement Zone!

It's been over a week since I've blogged.
Been feeling down.
One thing I've learned through this process is.....
EVERYONE HAS AN OPINION!!!

I knew when I started this I was opening myself up for criticism.
What I didn't expect was the complete lack of support!
For the past month or so I've let other people get into my head.
And as a result, gone off the path I have worked so hard toward.
Hey, I'm human.

So, now at a crossroad, do I go forward with my dream, or....
Give in to the people who have decided for me who I am?

As I've said before, and will most likely say again....
GET OVER IT!!!!!
Onward HO!

Love is the Key!

Took a long walk today.. YEA! Exercise helps my attitude.
Drinking half my body weight in water today, that's a commitment by the way.
And back on Release Plan.
My progress picture is next Wednesday.. not in the place I expected to be.
But a commitment is a commitment.
NO JUDGEMENT PEOPLE!!!

Slow Progress is Still Progress!!

I have been beating myself up for weeks now
because.....
I'm embarrassed that my weight isn't coming off faster.
But my friends at Release reminded me
That Progress is Progress no matter how slow.

But still....
I sure wish this would go faster!


I found out also this week that one of the main reasons you have a stall is...

Yes...
My best friend water.
Your supposed to drink half your body weight in ounces per day.
WHAT???
Yeah, I missed that in the orientation!!
Okay, I'll do better.
Wish me luck!

Where will I be in three weeks?

It appears I have a decision to make....
I feel as if I'm standing still.
I know from the Release Plan that your either creating
or disintegrating....
But I honestly feel like I'm in a bubble.
So.
It's either jump or get off the bridge at this point...
So where will i be on May 22?
It's time for me to take control.

Weekends are the hardest for me!!
But I've kept on my exercise schedule......
However I really need to reevaluate my eating plan....
Ugh!!!!!
And drink more WATER!
