The weight loss real deal

I am the world’s worst blogger.   Being a clinical counselor I’m require to spend most of my day in session and all  I do is document. When I come home and rest and on my day off I don’t want to see the computer screen let alone wright a post. Did my amazing justification pardon my absence? 

 Life has changed so much for me this year so many amazing things have come to pass.  I think the biggest one has me continuing to learn about my weight loss journey. Let’s see since my last post I was    at 208  well I am an amazing 225 . I say this because life happened and so does muscle. I retired weight watchers because all I knew was Points Plus and that isn’t really learning about nutrition as a whole. I went on to My fitness pal i was also at a plateau  and I wanted to switch it up. I focused on   Macros and learning how to maintain my weight I continued to stay active I work out 5 days a week.  I still very much weight lift and bust my ass with Cardio.   Although a learning  process  I can say all my gain wasn’t just muscle, vacations and life happen and I’m really okay with it. I’m still the same size I was in January 12/14   and I weight more.   I’ve also learned  an extremely important lessons. The scale has no power over my emotions unless I give it power. That took a lot of inner self work.  I’m glad I went through the ups and downs of my journey in the last 10 months.  I’ve learned  nutrition, self-love  and body image love because it boils down to how you feel on the inside and what demons you are facing you can get to goal weight but if you are facing issues inwards you will never be satisfied and when you look in the mirror you won’t feel good. I’ve also learned to trust the process you see I left weight watchers just because I wasn’t getting the results fast enough I thought for sure it wasn’t working for me anymore ,  (DUH)  I was gaining muscle  is what was the problem never the less   I had to learn what I had to learn and I’m thankful for it nothing is  every by chance.    

 So moving forward what’s my plan of attack  well  my goal is to lose 35 more pounds  and maintain  my weight  so I have once again started back on weight watchers and I am down 3.5 pound  BOOM !!  

 Here is a picture  of myself  now  J   I will attempt to be a better blogger  I am a great instagramer  lol so go on to the side of this page and click follow

Weight Loss update for Janaury 2015

Hey, Guys.

 

 It’s been a few months since my last weight loss update.  H Well Im here to tell you it’s stronger than ever I have hit losing a total of 68 pounds in 1 year. The holidays where such a struggle actually since November 3^rd my birthday weekend to Vegas is where it all started. Did I gain yes I gained 4 pound from November till New Year’s Eve.  I did however take no break at the gym I ate and worked my ass off. I gained from eating all the sweets (To many brownies).

   What where some of the highlights of last year for me.

 

I have gained so much endurance. I have gained muscle. I discovered my passion for strength training and Weight training. I get an amazing adrenaline when I feel my muscle sore and burn from the workouts. It’s even more amazing to see my muscles form and to feel them.I  workout 4- 5 times a week. I am so dedicated and really have falling in love with the gym. I have tried new machines and workouts that I never thought I would engage in.  I walk in the gym with more confidence than I ever had.No more walking with my head down.  My clothing size is so much easier to shop for and so much cheaper (wohoo) I went from a Size 24 to now a XL which is a size 14 I do fit in some  L depeding on fabric . That is another (Victory)

 The biggest highlight is to wrap my brain around not letting the scale have so much power on how I feel about myself. I had to learn this when I started to build muscle , because muscle weight less than fat and as you started to turn fat into muscle you start to look smaller rather than have that number reflect the scale. That was so true and remains so true in my case. I have noticed me looking smaller but the scale not budging much.

Overall I have really come a long way in my first year. Now it’s on to another great year. This year I will be participating in my first Spartan sprint race in September I am extremely excited about it. I will continue to update you on my journey.

 

  Here are some pictures, of my progress..

This journey is extremely rewarding I’m not going to lie it can  and will challenge you to no end but if you want it bad enough, you will push through. I  not only I’m gaining my health , I have gained a extreme amount of Discipline, dedication and there is such a power in me I never knew I possessed, You really find out about your character when you push yourself, when you push those beliefs , and when you just keep moving forward  NO  MATTER WHAT !

Weight Loss Update : Activity

 Right Side 2010 I was at my heaviest  286. Left side is me today. 

So I wanted to update my progress so far.

I currently weight 222.2.  a few things have changed I have started to try out another machine at the gym which now has made me build up more momentum .

My work out routine for right now is

20 treadmill walk 3.4 and jog 5.2  ( Cool Down) 5 minutes

I then go on the elliptical for 15 minutes (Cool Down) 5 minutes

 Bike for 10 minutes

On My leg and arm day I do the above routine but include these to it.

I do legs on of the machines 5 sets of 10 (2-3 Sets)

And I do arms on machine 5 sets of 10(2-3 Sets)

 I am still at working out 3x a week it’s really all I can do now with my busy schedule.

Monday, Wednesday and Saturday are the days I workout. On Wednesday is when I  do my leg exercises and my arm exercises.  

 For me this works and as I continue my journey I will embark on new things to-do.

For me personally I think it’s extremely important to get familiar with the machines you use and get comfortable using them especially if the gym is new stopping grounds for you.

I know you can walk in the gym and feel overwhelmed remember take it easy and don't be so hard on yourself. Small baby steps eventually add up to big changes

Food

I am at 34 weight watcher points and again its all portion control I eat tons of veggies and fruit.

 When I go through old photos it brings tears to my eyes, because I felt imprisoned to my body, I had the worst self esteem every. The saying “Your outer  reflect your inner”

For me personally that was such a true sentiment in my life.

 If you have read some of my other WL updates. I have said this from the start. For my journey I really had to deal with my INNER SELF before I even attempted to work on the outer.

 What really helped me? Gods healing power, his strength and a 9 month life coaching class that helped me break free from the mental strongholds in my life.

What I mean about god's healing power, its gods will that you live in victory its his will that you don't live IN  bondage and its his will to restore you. Sometimes our own "will" and the many strongholds (  Faulty Mental beliefs ) keep us from his will, keeps us from our full potential.  That faulty belief system keeps us in our own bondage and in order to come out of it we have to break it.



(This was my Tool , I am not persuading anybody to my beliefs I'm merely sharing with you "MY Journey" and ultimately  you have to do what works for yours.)  


Proverbs 16:3 

Commit your :Works to the lord and he will establish your "plans"

 I will continue to update you as I move along.

Thank you for stopping by. If your struggling and need to talk feel free to email me I would love to reach out to you.

ProbioSlim Probiotics

         Being on a weight loss journey it is very important for me to take my daily supplements. Being in my mid 30s digesting foods, I love and are good for me to eat is challenging at times. I did tons of research about the benefits of a daily probiotic . I was offered a great opportunity to review Proboslim which helps with digestion, promotes strong metabolic boost and the most important it eases bloating & reduced "tummy pooch".

I have been taking this for almost three weeks now and have noticed a slight difference in my "daily bowel habits". A big improvement from before  also   Let me be very clear regular diet and fitness activity  can enhance and activate the wonderful benefits  that  Proboslim offers.

How to take  Probioslim  : Take 1 Tablet with breakfast and one with Lunch. 

My Yummy SoyChorizo/Egg whites breakfast burrito with fat free beans 7(Weight Watchers Points) 

Lunch Salad, W/Fat Free Dressing 1PP and a Grilled Cheese W/ turkey 7
Total Weight Watcher Points for Meal is 8 Points 

Pro’s

• Easy on Stomach

• Easy To Swallow

• Simple To Take

• Boost immunity

• Replaces/Replenishes good bacteria in your stomach 

Cons’

• Because this pill does have some Caffeine if you are highly sensitive to caffeine you may want to consult with your primary Dr before beginning this supplements

Overall

• Great product that has worked great for me thus far. Mind you I have already lost 42 pound through diet and exercise I was at a plateau for the past 3 weeks and when taking Probioslim, it has helped kick start my metabolism and get me out of that nasty plateau

• Where can you find ProbioSlim at? your local GNC stores or by stopping by their website you can claim a free 14 day risk free trial>>> HERE <<<<

Dress of the week

Next Stop, Sacramento Dress

This dress is AMAZING, the colors and pattern look so much better in person, the fit is great ( I got a 2X)  and so is the quality of the material, the length is shorter if you look in the description it does say that the dress is made from the mini silhouette but in plus sizes its not really "mini", but then again it really all depends on your height I'm 5'6 and hit me right at the knees.  This is  a vibrant full of personality kind of dress . When shopping online always make sure to take your own measurements  , don't be scared to size up. Don't be afraid to send stuff-back. You learn from trial and error . I would consider my self a pro online shopper , because really I do a lot of online shopping.      Don't forget take a extra $20 off your first order at MODCLOTH  by Clicking Here.

See you next week as I spice things up with some ASOS CURVE ! 

Also New weight loss update coming soon 

 I have listed some stuff straight out of my Closet so if your looking to snag some cute affordable, gently used items take a looksieeee    >>>> MY STORE<<<<<<

❤ oNecklace Review ❤

The team at oNecklace kindly offered me a necklace of my choice to review.  With so many options I was stumped with choosing one, I seriously wanted them all. Nevertheless I opted for the 24k Gold Plated Monogram Necklace

I've had this necklace since December of last year and I really have to say that for this necklace being gold plated it has really lived passed my expectations. It hasn't’ tarnished or become dull, like most gold platted items I have previously own. I love it and have my eye on another necklace that I will be purchasing soon.

Pro’s – Good Quality, Fast shipping, variety of choices that do include full gold items. Easy site navigation.  Affordable.


Cons- Unfortunately don’t wear this necklace in the shower or in water, although made of good quality because it is gold plated it may tarnish, keeping it out of water preserves the life of the necklace.
Again thank you Onecklace for a pleasant experience.

I have something special to share with you.

❤Dress of the week I can Zig it ❤

It’s that time again. Dress of the week.  This week’s dress is  from ModCloth. Yes I know I have an obsession with that site, and after that awesome 50% sale I have tons of cuteness to share.

This Dress is the I Can Zig it Dress. I went with my gut and went for a size 2x which fit perfectly. Right now I am a 43 -41- 46. I have absolutely no cons about this dress. It is every thing I wanted it to be. I stand 5’6 so the length hit me just above my knees. I wore this to work so I wore it with a blazer to give it an office look. I think I pulled it of well. I love that I can  bring my own style to the work place. I am defiantly not fit for a uniform job it would bore me to pieces.

The good news is this dress is still on sale! One thing about the sale item you literally have to get them why they are hot because you can blink your eye and that dress you been eyeballing is gone. It’s happened way too often

A Successful online shopping spurge is when 1) its on sale and 2) its in my size.

I have even better news. Here is a $20 gift credit for your next MODCLOTH purchase   ❤CLICK HERE❤ 

I like to share the love  and if your anything like me saving a few bucks makes my shopping experience a happy one.


Okay Cutie pies I will see you next week for the dress of the week

❤Dress of the week❤

Finally! My Modcloth goodies came in the mail. Actually I have had them for about 2 weeks but have been bombarded with work leaving me little time to snap an outfit post. I actually also have placed (2) other orders because of modcloths awesome 50% off sale.

So look out for my weekly Post featuring The Dress of the Week.

This Week dress is the Migrate Expectations Dress

 

Love Love the cute flamingo print very roomy and just adorable and its on sale right now. I really should have sized down but since I am in-between sizes right now I went with a 2x and should have gotten a 1x oh well still adorable I am between a 16 and 18 depending on fabric, and cut. Never the less I will probably post it up for sale as soon as I finish up my store website of stuff right out of my closet. So keep an eye out for that. 

Review 

Pros- Cute Fabric, not clingy to the body ,  Stretchy, great Colors, Great Lenght.

Cons- Runs Large so size down. A little big with the straps and Bust. 

Overall Verdict- I love the dress if I would have sized down it would have been perfect. The sash gives the dress no life, so add your own belt  it will bring the outfit together 

 Take advantages of the 50% OFF sale and even Better 

here is $20 to spend on your first order I love to share the love

Chevron Prints Obsessed and weight loss update

Hey Guys!

Thank you again for stopping by and taking the time out to catch up with me. So let’s get the Weight Loss Update out of the way. Things are going good since last update I am down 36 pounds I have been averaging 1 pound a week. This is fine by me I would rather have the weight come off slow and steady than rapid.   I continue with my gym routine and have to admit, its been challenging dragging my butt there the last 2 weeks due to me being under a high volume of stress at work due to us being short staffed and my grandmother’s constant Drs appointments. She is having cataract surgery soon, has made me not want to even step foot in a gym. The last thing I want at the end of the day is my bed. Never the less I have been going twice a week not 3 times but I am back on it. I look at it like this I am going and it could be worst me not going at all. My June goal is to get rid of my Excuse Bag. We all have one and they can hinder us if we allow them to dominate us.   So things are good and I’m good. 

Now on to my outfit nothing fancy I am trying to really wear things in my closet as much as I can. Things are already not fitting me. I am a size 16/18 right now I was a 22. However I do have something’s that I can pull off and some stuff that is just down right huge.  I am finding all kinds of things tucked away in my closet that I had forgotten about like this adorable Chevron dress. Don’t you just love to shop in your closet and re- discover stuff that you forgot you had. That is so me right now and I am loving it. 

Out fit Details 

Chevron Dress is From MOD CLOTH  (Not on the website anymore) 

Blazer from WETSEAL

Belt is from another dress and shoes are from

I will catch up with you soon

Uniquely You Via Modcloth

Hey! I am extremely excited to share today’s ModCloth Uniquely You Style Challenge post. Being a huge fan of ModCloth  I was truly ecstatic when asked to participate in this weeks style challenge. Along with several other bloggers we were contacted to create a style board via Polyvore to participate in this weeks challenge creating a look around the Vivacious and Vibrant Dress in Noir. that comes in various sizes all the way up to a size 4x.  I am a sucker for a neutral dress that can be played up in so many ways and that is what this dress screams. Being that I spend most of my time at work and have a demanding job I wanted to promote the office professional , who like's to take their own style to work.  I work in a Semi Business Casual work environment so I have room to play up my outfits and bring MY  Pizzazz with me  . Also being that I love dresses, I spend a lot of time looking and shopping for  cute- fun work dresses. I am obsessed with how a dress makes me feel and how feminine I feel with them on. 

In my style board , I tried to pick things around my personality. So not only is the dress a reflection of me so is the cute Journal Set and the adorable Coffee Mug I also picked out a Pop of color with the adorable handbag.  I cant wait to share my new Modcloth outfits with you I placed an order last week and I anxiously wait its arrival. 

If you haven't checked out MODCLOTH were have you been?  No seriously they have thousands of beautiful dresses to choose from . I am always on there Plus section checking out the new arrivals. My wishlist is jammed packed .  

Do you have a favorite dress you been eyeballing from MODCLOTH ? 

Make sure to check out the PLUS SIZE Section here CLICK ME !


I hope your week is filled with fun and smiles.

Weight- Loss Update

Well, since my last post my WLJ (weight-loss journey ) has been gong very well. I have to keep reminding my self it is a lifestyle and not a race to some finish line. I am Down 32 pounds with a lot more to go, but I'm well on my way. It does feel good to  have more energy, look better and fit better into clothing. I have my ups downs and all around but hello that what life is all about. I am more accountable for my behaviors .

I have been wanting to loose weight for a long time now; I just never did anything about it and found every excuse in the book to not pursue it. I really had to deal with matters of the heart and soul before I attempted to start working on the outer part of my self . It really is about working on "Self" if you ignore that part your  in for a disaster. What I mean is you will still look at your self based on how you feel about your self or how you have felt . After the soul searching I needed to find a plain that worked for me. I did not want to feel restricted and I did not want to be on some fad diet.

Starting my journey I researched plains and found WW( Weight Watchers) I studied their system read story's did tons of research .  I began WW January of this year and set small goals for the first 30 days on the plain I  just studied my eating patterns this allowed me to make small changes . Biggest change was to cut out my late night refrigerator eating.  Instead of making a sandwhich at 11 at night I would have a piece of fruit eventually I cut out the fruit and now do not dare to late night snack . I have a snack after dinner before bed but don't wake up anymore and help myself to whatever my heart desire.

I drink tons and I mean tons of water. I hated drinking water before but, to get myself use to consuming large quantity of water a day. My go to product is awesome water enhancers  like crystal light, mio . This makes water drinking easier. I meal prep and do not deprive myself of treats I am a choclate lover and I do like to enjoy a cupcake now and then. Thanks to weekly points that make that happen.  I also have 1 and I mean 1 cheat meal not a cheat day just a meal ..

And for the working out part at this point in my journey I do 3 times a week for 30 minutes.  I have been increasing my gym time by 10 minutes usually my routine is now  20 minutes of the treadmill and about 20 minutes on the bike ...


 I will keep updating as I continue to move Along on  my journey !
Thank you for finding and reading my post. If you are thinking about shedding some weight  I encourage you to do it ! I also encourage you  to stop giving yourself all the reasons why you cant and start thinking of all the reason why you CAN!

Update and weight loss

Well as the new year has kicked off lots of changes have happen in my life. The best change is to focus on feeling better about my self . Was I happy with my weight I would be lying if I said I was at a complete acceptance because I wasn't. I couldn't stand to lie to myself and make up excuses for how unhappy I felt in my life so with lots of soul searching and getting down to the root of my issues with self; I joined weight watchers . On January 1st I signed up. But way before I joined i had spent about 2- 3 months just researching the plan and studying food and the points system . Well since signing up I am down almost 25 pounds !! YAY me !  As you can see from the above picture  you can see such a improvement in my face . My clothes fit better and I feel better I still have  a long ways to go  however I have a goal of getting down to a size large ! I am well on my way and Have my goal weight Dress in eye sight

Isn't she lovely well  I thinks so ..   she come from the  Simons website  and I have a list going on of all the cute dresses I am saving up for .  You know what the more exciting part about weight loss is that I can explore  stores and websites I was unable to shop at being a size 24. Clothing is much cheaper as well  and  let me tell you ,  I loved dresses as a plus size and I know when i get this weight off dresses will still be my go to staple. I will keep updating my blog with my Weight loss progress ..

Warming up your Maxi Dresses for the Fall

I know , I know I haven’t been posting !!! I’ll get back on track, I swear!

Even though fall is just around the corner , i’m still not ready to part with my maxi dresses. Luckily, it’s still easyto warm up , so here are some ideas I have for keeping yourfave maxi dress in the cooler months.

Warming Up Maxi Dresses​

I went for a little western vibe with some slouchy cowboy Boots from Zappos and a vintage calvin klein jacket from Etsy . This Etsy shop is great if you love the idea ofthrifting but haven’t gotten the hang of it yet! The sunglasses are from modaoperandi and the bag is from Mulberry (swoon!).

This next option is a little more rock chic – leather jackets and beanies are always a must for chilly fall nights. Thekenzo boots are from Jades24.com . A necessity for windy days (and bad hair days!) is this beanie is from Mango. The dress is called the Runway Maxi and it’s from Roamans.com. The pattern on it is kinda loud , so keep going with the monochromatic look with a jacket from Nelly.com a cute handbag. This one is the Classic Q Francesca from Nordstrom. super cold nights aren’t something I need to worry about , but if they’re a problem , no one needs to know if youre wearing some leggings.

Don't forget to stay tune for my next post that will cover my experience with the California smooth keratin treatment   And let me know your thoughts on how your transiting your wardrobe. 

New year has really been filled with blessings

It's almost march wow!!!!
Seems like we were just in january . None the less I had to come on and share how great my new year has kicked off ! I'm happy in my job just bought a new car feel like I'm learning more about myself and lots of self improvement as far as personal growth I'm just in a wonderful place. I've join the iPad world which makes blogging a whole lot more fun and convenient . Blogging is my happy place and I let myself disconnect from it. In fact I let myself disconnect from lots of things one of the many things I am working on in my life. Letting the fears go taking out the garbage and replacing it with risk taking and building interpersonal connections. I have some what of a anti social thinking were letting people in my life has been a struggle . I'm hoping to change that :)
Well I just wanted to say a few words and ramble ....
