Day 847

Hi.

I'm not really happy right now. I did work out, I accommodated for all the in-between eating of the wasabi peas and apricot crisps (which I felt was a more normal way to eat to have something in my stomach all day, but yeah) and fulfilled my steps. I walked 3 times technically today to reach over 6000 steps.

The reason I'm not happy I guess is because everything is out of my control with money. I go tomorrow with my pops to see about a loan. Not for me, but for the house. I also owe state taxes, because some idiot in the government thought to enact a law to take out more taxes and business did not have to implement it, meaning I owed the state, AND my phone does not act right (which I believe is due to partial water damage among being old) and I had to set aside getting a new phone due to the storage unit raising the cost on me after lowering it for me last month. I hate that my boyfriend can hardly hear me on the phone, I hate it.

My bf offered to do my initial payment on a new phone, which is not what I fucking wanted. But he insisted. So tomorrow, I will try and do that. Also, I'm looking to see about keeping my regimen the same but making more alterations to it so I can have a more "lifestyle realistic plan" for the long run, if you catch my drift. I want to continue with a healthy lifestyle beyond 180 lbs. I want to be healthy for the long run, so I looked at HIIT workouts today and did not realize I had been doing them. Cool. HIIT is doing multiple exercises with less rest time, basically cardio without rest so you can burn more calories. Also, back on food prep. Being fulfilled throughout the day with less calories each food time is better for metabolism.

So that's where I am. Also, I'm irritated on other stuff i'll discuss later. For now, ima chill, wait for bf to call me once he gets out the gym and just try to keep myself motivated for bday and j1con. Please stay motivated for that ultimate body you want. Eat. Train. Sleep. Nite.

Day 846

Hi fam.

So a lot is going on...kinda.

Yesterday work put a small damper in my workout but I was able to workout at home. Cool on that. I'm back to 238.2, cool on that. Today I went to the gym and did a second mini workout this evening.

A little while ago I watched How Heavy are the Dumbbells you Lift? which is a relatively new anime that started in 2016 and is in Japanese and English. I just watched 3 episodes with my boyfriend so if you need motivation, need a laugh, and want information on working out, this is the anime for you. Check it out here: https://www.watchcartoononline.io/how-many-kilograms-are-the-dumbbells-you-lift-episode-3-english-dubbed

I've learned (and have been told during research) that it's good to eat protein within 30 minutes of a workout for muscles to heal properly. Problem is that my routine is as follows: workout, weigh self, eat, complete steps, drink protein, go to work/drink water, workout, weigh...
My thing is to weigh myself before eating, so, if im at the gym on muscle days, i'll try to weigh myself naked at the gym and munch on something like turkey/beef jerky since it's cheaper to buy than protein bars at the dollar tree (here in America). Trying to be sufficient so I don't gain all im losing back in the long run and maintained a healthy lifestyle as well.

On to tomorrow's workout, because my sis is taking the car, and I can't really take my dad's vehicle, i'll be doing the following, minus elliptical and bike: 100 reps mountain climbers, 100 reps high knees, 100 leg kicks, count of 16 for stretching and yoga, and 5 minutes of dancing, 5 minutes of jogging, plank 

Til morrow. Be safe. Stay motivated. Stay hydrated. Keep moving. Eat. Train. Sleep.

Day 845

Hi. 

Today I'm at work for an extra 2 hours. I did not know this...same for tomorrow. BUUUT, because I do, I get about 95 hours for this pay period, which is dopety dope dope. Backside is that this is the usual time I'd be at the gym. I want to weight myself after I workout before eating, SOOO, I rearranged some exercise so I could exercise in the office before I leave. That way I can go straight home. 

Today's change: 

30 reps of shoulder press (15)---> 30 shoulder push ups
 lat pull down (30-35)---> one legged bridge hold (10 Mississippi's each time 3x per leg)
 legs lifts
 glute kick sets
plank 30 seconds 

Well, warm up will be normal, stretch will be normal, but I'm thinking of making yoga my main "after workout stretch," you know, to get ahead of the game in my flexibility. More later.

Days 841-844

Hi Kingdom of Lot.

Right now I'm in between studying, listening to this chick on youtube about hair, and looking up a monthly workout challenge for September to complete as a "thing" to myself, for my birthday come October, trying hit minimum 200 lbs, you know.

The chick I'm listening to is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-BKGq9A1iYo

As I'm going about, I'm been doing okay in my workout and I think I MAY hit 229 in a few days if I do what im suppose to.

With that I'm not gonna blab too much. It's been a rough couple of days and money is my issue, so, still motivating myself, preparing for fall and getting body right. So, stay motivated my friend. Eat. Train. Sleep...please get enough sleep. Nite nite.

Days 838-840

About to work off the huge amount of calories I put in my body for no fucking reason today. Yesterday I did well as I only took in two drinks of protein and got back to 239.8.

If I do what the fuck im suppose to I can be 229 by the end of the month, meaning I have ample time to lose 40 pounds in a fucking month by my bday and that gives me time to be able to fix the following cosplays:

SECRET COSPLAY
Spider man Miles Morales
Abe Sapien

these are what im doing for j1 but I got to stop doing this bullshit and putting myself down. Also, I think im going back to apples and fruit pops, and just having my protein shake mixed in with fruits and veggies so im not starving myself of nutrients.

At the moment I said I need to do a second workout in my room. I asked my mom to NOT move stuff in the car so I can find it. She act like she ain't care, so how bout this, since you don't care, I don't care. I am TRYING to motivate myself to workout and you worrying about the car that YOU don't put a penny in. Fucking pisses me off. I am seriously, seriously, seriously, trying to motivate myself and I almost stopped. But you know what, I want those fucking cosplays, I want to fulfill my body goals to feel more good about myself, so ima work hard, work extra hours, and make the effort to be the best I can be. I want my life the way I want it. Time to work out NOW!!!!

Day 837

Hi kingdom of lot.

Today was a long ass day. I did go to the gym and do shoulder and back but did not feel like I did enough. About to eat a waffle overnight which will pump me up. So I'll put in a compound cardio plan to go extra hard tomorrow. I'll let you guys know how it goes. Eat. Train. Sleep.

Day 836

Hi Kingdom of Lot.

So today I stayed at work longer than I wanted to and my sister had something to do today so I did not get to go to the gym. I opted to switch shoulder and back day for leg day, which, let me tell you, was AWESOME!!

For leg day I wanted to do compound exercising, you know, get more for my buck...well, more out of burning my calories for my buck if you catch my drift. So my exercises as you know are as follows:

squats--leg lifts--glute kicks

Because it's the start of my new edited routine week, I was suppose to do 30 reps, but did 40 for squats and leg lifts and 30 for glute kicks, with extra exercises in between so it went:

warm up  10 jumping jacks to 10 jump ropes for 100 reps--stretch--
4 squats to 4 high knees for 40 reps
4 leg lifts to 4 butt lifts for 40 reps
4 glute kicks to 4 thigh lifts (or fire hydrants) for 30 reps
plank for 20 seconds--Stretch

I was sweating up a storm and feeling the burn baby, and it was great, all while listening to a mix I was able to download: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kkAB-CGpmVc&t=322s

Well, off to search more motivation stuffs on tumblr. Stay motivated and hydrated. Eat. Train. Sleep.

Day 835 part 2

Hi.

So this morning I went to the gym and did my routine. I did my 30 knee push ups and I did my 30 lb bench press. However, the dumbbell fly was not okay at 30lbs. I switched back to 20lb. I will have to switch to 15 lb next go round. I also warmed up with 30 cal on elliptical and end routine with plank.

I ate just under 1000 calories today, and would have been great to finish off with a 90 calorie orange cream bar but somebody ate the last of them. Great. Gotta wait to pay day.

There were two motivation videos I saw today. Get in on them.

I have no idea how much I weight BUT I have re-edited my workout for more reps and now will be working out 7 days a week as opposed to 5. I like it. I'm motivated, especially after eating pie earlier yesterday and feeling wrong after. Won't get into it right now, but I told myself that I can do so much fucking better, and so I will. I want my spider man outfit and have a whole slew of cosplays I want to do...as well as be as healthy as I can be. So, here's my routine. Toodles. Stay motivated. Better find you a youtube vid and binge watch greatness and ways to improve life. Eat. Train. Sleep.

Days 823-825

Hi fam and Kingdom of Lot.

So from Bronycon I gained about 15 lbs in water weight. Shocking, I know. However, I have decided I need to be a little bit more realistic about my weight loss, so that's why I incorporated adding in more protein so that eventually I'm losing anywhere from .5 to .7 lbs on average verses 1 - 1.5 lbs on average because, in reality, I know I'll gain the weight back quicker the quicker I lose it. So even though I'm in the midst of re-losing the water weight (went from 245.5 to 240 over these 3 days) eventually it should slow in the next 2 weeks or so. I want to honestly be 180 by the end of September, however, I will accept being under 200 by then instead if it means being healthy.

Day before yesterday I made chickpea burgers with corn, and from the leftover corn and tomato with chiles in a can this morning I'm making chickpea burgers with added onion to keep up close to the calorie count since the corn and tomato chile amounts I used don't equate to what I had left, if that makes sense. Also I decided to eat heavier in the earlier part of the day and light in the evening. So as of now it's:

Breakfast/Lunch: 3 chickpea burger patties over lettuce with ketchup and hot sauce, yum

Dinner: Yogurt with vega protein (1/2 amount) with 2 apples and 1/8 cup of oats

and don't forget your water...

So about to mix these up, i'll add some recipes later, love you guys and thanks to whoever is reading my blog or tumblr (and eventually twitter) and keeping up with me for these two years, I promise to get down in the next few months and it's becoming quite the reality with the support from bf, friends, and my love of cosplays...and nursing lol. Til later. Stay motivated.

Days 817 - 822

Hi.

It has been quite the week.

Bronycon2019 was AMAZING. I went as Twilight Sparkle and was able to enjoy the rave on Friday AND was able to hang out with boyfriend. I also ate what I wanted (yay/nay) and I learned that it's better to lose money and save my life on the road. In other words, don't drive for 3 hours when you haven't napped and go straight into work. Never doing this shit again like this. Next time I'll just call out.

On the bright side, starting tomorrow I'll go back to workout and the gym. I'll post my new updated regimen. Also, I just finished My Hero Academia season 1. BOI!! The motivation is real and I found the workout for it. Definitely motivated to do it birthday month. Looking forward to the challenge. Also, catching up on bio, and I start a new set of flashcards tonight along with watching Dragon ball super.

A lot, I know, but I'm excited and that's ALLLL that matters. Until then people. Stay motivated. Eat. Train. Sleep...like seriously get the right freaking amount of sleep. Good night!!
