mamaLacey Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 Short intro to those who haven't met me yet ! Mother of 2.Looking for a job currently .Stressed ,but working on releasing that with working out.Into long Distance running !I usually have a lot on my mind so to me that and long distance running they go hand in hand =]LOVE playing different types of games rpg, first person shooter, puzzles , etc. This week I am trying my best to shorten my one mile run time. I just use the Nike run app to help me out. My latest run was 29:25 for 1.96 mi. I walked my first lap, jogged 3 and walked on my last lap. Another note food :I think I have to decline going over to our friends gathering almost every Sunday because they always cook unhealthy food that just ruin me =[I tried last Sunday eating my meal before we left , but ended up giving into a grilled cheese/ham/beef sandwich with camp bell's tomato soup . This coming Sunday I plan to take my meal with me and eating there . If I feel the need to eat the junk food I want to promise myself to drink more water instead. Also can anyone suggest to me a workout punishment for giving into junk food? I prefer a workout punishment because I'm really tight on money right now .any thoughts just let me know below .

Barfly Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 Hi!A couple of things:1) You don't want to develop the attitude that exercise is punishment, so instead,2) How about every time you resist junk food you put away the equivalent amount of money until you save up enough for a nice non-food treat.Cheers,Barfly The past is only smoke in a dream.

mamaLacey Posted May 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 tried out one part of the Brazilian butt lift and it was an up beat workout. Felt like throwing up afterwards , but I didn't! I usually do jogging , but it was already late and I didn't feel that safe to go out jogging by myselfSo it was Brazilian butt lift. I tired it a couple of weeks ago and couldn't make it even half way through 30 mins.I'm glad I finished it. On another note I had an Interview and I felt I did well , but that's what I always think =] Just waiting on a call back . Until then I'm still applying to places.

redpuma Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 I try not to think of workouts as punishment. So, personally, I wouldn't suggest using exercise as a way to punish yourself. If you must, why not just add burpees into your next workout? You could, say, warmup for your jog, do a pyramid of burpees (2+15s rest, 4+15s rest, etc. up to 10 and back down again) and then carry on with your regularly scheduled jog?

redpuma Posted May 29, 2014 Report Share Posted May 29, 2014 UUUUUGH, the cold. I was laid out on the couch for like, a week with a horrible sinus cold. It took over my whole body like a plague! Just got back to the gym, and am trying not to psych myself out about "being behind." Watch out for that, when you recover.Feel better! Level 0 | Amazon | Class = ???

mamaLacey Posted June 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2014 Hey everyone! succeeded in getting a job to my liking =] no more being a server .I feel like my days are zipping by .It's been so long since I've worked a 8-5pm job.Also on a side note my co workers always try to invite me to eat with them. They usually bring in some fast food and etc.It's hard because here when you decline to eat someone's food they sometimes take it personally.How do you tell someone that you're adapting to a new life style/ food habit?

mamaLacey Posted June 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2014 Also do you guys have any input as to which veggies are best to buy ? I feel like since i don't have my meals made for the next days or week that my veggies start turning color and I cook that veggie that night/morning . I don't want to waste my money. I usually do shopping once or twice a month . thanks!

mamaLacey Posted December 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2014 Hey everyone! Been out for quite a awhile and fell off the grid. Update: Working full time now !also not going to lie haven't been fully committed to eating right and workouts. SO I feel more comfortable with my work schedule along with figuring out a routine around everyone else's in my house. Been thinking a lot and been wanting to post up vlogs about my status and a lil about me here and there all in good time.Main focus is Time Management . Catch everyone later!

mamaLacey Posted December 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 Food log: morning jack in the box =[ lunch rib soup with rice. Dinner ramen .All horrible choices gah =0 Side note volunteered to cook eggs for work for a pot luck kind of breakfast ...but i was asked to also bake a cake .. =/ sooo I'm holding my self accountable to not have a big slice, or seconds, or thirds......or fourths! I feel like if I deny myself cake at all that I'll more than likely just stuff my face . Cheers to tomorrow guys!
