Welcome Back

Hi Everybody, I'm sorry I haven't written in so long I think thats how the last three posts have started but whatever. So here I'm going to try something new, as far as the blog goes I'm going to write a little at least a couple of times a week, here's the catch; it might not always be about weightloss but I just want to try to get into the routine of writing in here again. Also I am going to try to keep to workouts and diet stuff but here's the other part I'm hoping will keep me writing, I'm only focusing on writing maybe a paragraph to two each time I write.

So here's what has been going on with me, I have been super super busy I have recently started yet another job I am now working at Bob Evans, Panera Bread, and Lane Bryant this is all in addition to the paper route I do on the weekends with my dad so now people understand a little better why I have been M.I.A. so much lately. However I do need some encouragement to get to the gym more often you see it isn't just the blog I've been slacking at lately. I have only been getting to the gym about one to two times a week. In my defense I have also been trying to add a walk in in addition to the gym visits. I have a workout buddy now so workouts are good when I do go I just have to focus on getting there more often. It's really been bothering me that I haven't been on the track I was on before.


Also I auditioned to be on the Biggest Loser again. My mom and I went to an open casting call a couple of weeks ago. I really felt like it went really well but I didn't get a call back from my audition. Thats ok though I'm not letting it get me down I'm in the process of getting a snail mail audition tape and eleven page application out the door I just have two more questions to answer and need to get it in the mail :) wish me luck :) Also I have a friend I met at the BIggest lOser filming of this seasons premiere and he's on the brink of getting into season 11 we think so cross your fingers and say a prayer for him as well.

ONe last thing Season 10 of the BIGGEST LOSER starts September 21st this is the one I'm sure I'll be in lots cause I was at the challenge for the hope to be contestants I was right there with Ali and Bob along the whole thing and during the contestants weigh in I was standing right behind their families. SO PLEASE PLEASE WATCH AND KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR ME!!!!!!!!! :D

Talk to you sooooooooon Bye

Trying to stay current

Hello Everybody, So I don't have a whole lot to say BUT I am trying to get back into the habit or routine of writing in here whether it's something important or big that I want to share with all of you or just little daily stuff to share whats going on with me. So Today I was hoping to get to the gym but I have ooobers and ooobers of laundry to do. I don't even know where I'm going to start. Then I have to go to my "new" job at Lane Bryant for a few hours this evening. HOWEVER if I can get out of there early enough I will be heading over to the Y afterward. :) I did get to the y for about a half hour on Saturday just to get in the pool for a little while because it was so darn hot around here. however I did do some swimming and treading water so thats somewhat a workout, activity if nothing else. Other than keeping up with my workouts and trying to stay/get back into the routine of writing in here more often I'm also going to start working on my audition video for TBL. (The Biggest Loser) I also wanted to share with all of you how much I am missing cooking. I have not had any time in weeks to cook anything especially something new. I have the urge to do some creative food art. But I have been so darn busy and its been so hot. I know this week I work at a job everynight of the week till Saturday. I guess we'll just have to wait and see maybe I can come up with some new inventions on this haitus. lol :) Alright well as much as I've been trying to put it off I really need to get going on my laundry. So I hope to correspond with you all soon. BYE

hard workout = tired Kelly

Hey Everybody so I actually have half of a post saved in my drafts that I started to write and then never finshed for some weird reason so to keep that from happening again I'm just going to be short and to the point because I'm very tired from my kick ass workout I did this evening..... So it all started with me getting off work and having all evening to do whatever so there's been alot of stuff on my mind lately and alot of things I've been wanting to do one of which is get to the gym more often... in the process of making that happen :) Also I hadn't been to starbucks in what seems like a long time. So I treated myself to a new drink that got me ready and rearin to spend my evening at the gym. But before starbucks I had a healthy and econimical dinner at Max and Ermas. I had the carribean chicken with the salsa on the side because a good friend of mine that works there gave me a heads up that it was a little spicey. Oh my goodness I have never had this meal but it was amazing!!!!! I ordered the smaller portion primarily for the price savings but what I got made me forget that I got the smaller portion :) I received one chicken breast a lot of rice and it normally comes with broccoli but I love they're salads there so I got one of those instead and like I said I got the salsa on the side and even tried a little and it wasn't reallly spicey just had a little kick and was glad I got it on the side so I was able to control how much I had. I had water with my meal which was also a hard choice cause Max and Ermas has a delicious drink that is actually pretty bad for you that I love and I did not get it so that was a milestone kind of. So then after dinner I wanted to get a caffeine fix to help me through my workout also wanted to give my dinner a little time to absorb into my body before starting my workout also like I said wanted to spend some time at starbucks. SO I went :) however I'm strongly watching my pennies these days so I had to deliberate on what to order so I decided to go with a double shot of espresso over ice added my own sweetner and milk like I would to a cup of coffee and spent about a half hour reading and getting caffeinated up :) Then went to the gym by the time I got there it was about 6 or 6;30 I started with my normal half hour on the eliptical but then found a movie I have been seeing advertised called "Revenge of the Bridesmaids" which I loved and didn't want to miss any of so in addition to that first half hour on the eliptical I then moved onto the tredmill where I hung out for almost an hour (I took breaks though to jog the track and refill water and take a potty break so it's not like it was a full hour on the tredmill) Then the movie was almost over but I was sick of the tredmill so I went back to the eliptical for the last half hour but I didn't want to skip my weight training I've been focusing on latley just because I did extra cardio nooooo noo noo I continued on to doing my thigh weight machines jogged another lap on the track then did my two leg push down and lift up machines and did another jog around the track then went to do my arm free weights. I recently started a new free weight routine to try to bump it up a little so this is what I did I started with my 2 10 pound weights and did 15 bicep curls. I then did 15 squats 15 behind the head arm dip thingys then my 15 weights above head to toe touches. thats one set of all those exercises I'm trying to work my way up to three sets of each like I do with my leg exercises I'm only able to do two sets right now but as long as I keep going I should be able to get to three soon. THEN I went to cool off in the pool for a little while. I started in the big (cooler) pool to do my treading then moved into the therapy (warmer) pool to relax my muscles a little. I am in a lot of pain as of right now and can only assume it's going to be 10 times worse tommorow but I just have to remind myself that this is how I get results and if I keep doing it eventually it won't hurt anymore :) ok so now that I've filled you all in on my amazing night i'm going to get some sleep becuase I have to work two jobs tommorow :) GOOD NIGHT xxoo
