How I did at the gym...

I went to my gorgeous gym, and NO ONE was there! ha ha ha ! the good ole holidays!

Well, I went on the elliptical, put it on 45 minutes, and did it on a hill interval thing...I burned about 450 calories!

WOO! And at the same time, I was watching Toy Story 2, so it didn't even feel like I was working out! And then I felt my forehead, and it was sooo sweaty! ha ha

Pilates? Nah...

I now know that it's is pretty much IMPOSSIBLE to do simply anything, except eating, when you come back from the gym... sooo hard...all you want to do is curl up on your couch and have a mocha...

Well, of course, I didn't have a mocha, but I did have dinner, and then I watched a movie.

Now, ... I think I might do my Pilates in the morning or before my shower. :D

Well, food plan is going fairly well, I had some good whole wheat stuff, and I had GRAPES (yes grapes!) for dessert. I know, I know, it's stupid and lame and all that stuff, but ice cream, cake, or anything is a big NO NO for me...

WOO!

Have a wonderful day guys!

Oh lord, school starts in about a week...and we're back to the normal routine...and then after that, the only break is spring break....which is way in April! *sighs* oh man!

Well, anyways take care guys! Bye!

TODAY: 12/26/10 (how my dare is going)

12/26/10

FIRST DAY!

Mood: Excited to see if I actually get my flat abs....and scared! haha

FIRST DAYY! Boy here we go! My food plan is going 'so far so good', I ate healthy, no junk food yet...I had some protein from an omelet, had some oatmeal, and some multigrain cheerios for a snack (without milk), just some in my hand.

I had a full lunch, I'm chewing gum (trying to close my mouth so I don't make me bloat with air) haha, but gum is the only thing that's keeping me from eating more

Ummm, let see........so today we have a treadmill session and pilates ughh :/

It's gonna be good, I know I can do it! MUSIC, GUM, and my head up determined, I can run it baby!

Is this your goal too? send me an email! or comment!

Love, from a happy girl!

**EDIT**

Hi guys! So I decided I do a 'daily report' on how my food plan and workouts are going so far in the day...I hope you don't mind, but I'm just gonna log in my calories and foods here, so feel freee to just skip it! ha ha ha!

Morning: Banana - 100 cal

11:00 : cheerios- 50

biscuits- 60

total: 210

Lunch: Beans: 36 cal

Rice: 400 cal (UGH) --(it was at a restaurant!) really good!

Omelet: 120 (just egg)

Something else: 100 ?

TOTAL: (ugh. here we go!) : 650

WOOOO! that's wayyy too much!

But here's EVEN worse!:

SNACK: Biscuits- 120

Grapes- 150

Yogurt- 80

Other 'crap' - 60

Total: 410

Oh mann!

TOTAL SO FAR: 1270

man!

Well, I have to do Pilates now, for about an hour (hopefully) and that'll burn about 50 calories (pilates is more toning) and then I gotta hit the gym to burn AT LEAST 150 cal there. So 200 peeled off, but hopefully I'll get to burning 300 calories all together tonight.

How am I going to burn 300 calories (maybe)?

First- it all depends on your weight

Right now, I'm probably 117, or 115

Weight: 117

Pilates (beginner): 45 minutes - 147 calories

Treadmill - 1 mile at 4.9mph (yeah, I know, I'm lazy!) - 75 (only for 10 minutes) WOW ...GO PILATES! haha ...but I NEED the cardio to be in there...

Elliptical: Cardio intervals things, 30 minute- 302 DANGGG!!! GO ELLIPITCAL!

AND THE GRAND TOTAL ISS: 524!

PEELED RIGHT OFF!

Now what ifff...I do 45 min. of ELLIPITICAL but no running?

WOOWWW! OFF THE HOOK!

If I do Pilates (beginner) which burns 147 for me, and then do ellipitcal for 45 minutes, I get 453, combine, I burned 600 dang calories!

I HEART THE ELLIPTICAL! haha

It says: If I run the treadmill for 45 minutes, I BURN 337

But if I do Ellipitcal for 45 mintues I BURN 453

That's about a 100 calories difference! so I mean....it adds up!

So I guess you really gotta love the ellipitical!

Here's the site: http://www.healthstatus.com/calculate/cbc

Hmm, one more thing! I didn't know this...well I kinda did..but not exactly..

CARDIO blasts 10-12 calories per minute...while ab exercises (e.g. crunches, sit ups..) burn ....much less than that....sorry! but the main point, is that you need cardio to blast all that fat, and then the ab exercises are to tone the abs...

I'm gonna hit the gym at 7:00...and like yesterday, it had on drake and josh, so you were too busy laughing so you didn't even feel like working your legs, but there was like sweat all over me! haha

so wish me luck! I think today's gonna be even better! oh elliptical...how I love you!

Byee guys!

Why I'm in LOVE with the 80s

70s, 80s, and maybe the early 90s....I heard they were spectacular!

I'm a 90s baby, so I have no idea what life was back then...but then I checked it out, listened to some music...and I fell in love with it!

People were so happy back then! The music was upbeat, dance music; and there were barely any songs that let you down. I love it!

Leg warmers, parachute pants, oversized shirts (I LOVE them), layered socks, jelly shoes, ....I just love...it all!

And I can't help but ask. Why can't we go back like that?

Where everyone was so happy! And nobody cared if something was 'out of season'!

OH LOVER(:

MY dare: Get FLAT ABS in 2 months

Hii(:

MERRY CHRISTMAS! HO HO HO!

<--- Oh, how I love this!

It's SOOO hard to write on here when school starts :/

I gotta get my B up in geometry and study for some REALLY important tests :/

And guess what else?

I have to add ANOTHER thing on top.

And that is ---- getting flat abs.

Believe it or not, but I'm starting to think that moms after their pregreancy have more success stories for flat abs then teens do! What the heck am I trying to say?

It's SUPER hard to get the scale to budge if your a teen (or like if your busy all the time)!

At school, espeiclally at your last hour, your ALWAYS hungry and your tummies are grumbling. So if there's like an apple pie coming in my way, which is about 1300 calories, I WOULD EAT IT

And then after like 5 minutes, I would SLAP myself because I was supposed to be on my diet....

So, this is MY dare to change my life! To get flat abs. And NO, I don't wear bikinis with clevage, I don't like showing my midriff (even if I DID have flat abs). I'm a pretty modest person. I mean, I'm in high school, but I don't even wear miniskirts without leggings! My parents would be okay with it if I did, but I just don't feel .... 'pretty'? Doing that. Makes me feel.... .... ... ( I don't cuss) haha

So, I know that probably if your reading this, your probably like the only person that is, because I don't have a lot of people who read this. So if you are, if you don't mind, can you support me? Maybe comment or something?

I'm gonna start eating healthier, hit the gym, but I can't do too much about my diet. So I gotta adjust it all here and there, because I have to eat what my mommy makes(:

So here's my PLAN (My DARE starts TOMORROW )

First, I'm gonna LOG everything that I eat in a food diary thing.

SUNDAY: Cardio T (treadmill) a jog- a mile or two miles at 4.9 or 5 mph without stopping

Pilates- at about an hour or a little above that

MONDAY: Workout A (fitness magazine) ** will explain below **

TUESDAY: Cardio T (treadmill) - same as SUNDAY

Pilates - same as sunday

WEDNESDAY: Workout B (fitness magazine) ** will explain below **

THURSDAY: Cardio E (elliptical) 30 minutes, cardio intervals

Pilates - same as sunday

FRIDAY: Workout A

SATURDAY: ONLY Cardio E (elliptical) 30 min - 45 min. cardio intervals

Hopefully it'll work, it's the only plan that's free and on the internet(:

I HOPE (REALLY hope) that I'll get my flat abs in a month, but I WON'T GIVE UP for 2 months.

Herre wee goo! Today's my only 'free' day for the next 2 months....

BUTTT. I have a nice treat for me when I do get to my flat abs, and that's MOCHAAA!!! ANDDD CHOCOLATE CAKEEE! yeahhh babyy!

:) I'm happy I'm doing this in a way, but it's like....it's like.....going in a haunted castle..........like you're so curious to find out and all the surprises, but at the same time you're scared! haha (i'm really bad at analogies) haha

BYEBYE guys! I'm gonna post def. if I see results, lose some inches...I'm not weighing myself, I think my weight is fine, but I just don't like my midriff...haha(:

MUAH! oh yeah one more thing, is this your goal too!??! comment below or EMAIL ME (i'll get it faster) if you're getting results and pass it on to your friends! see if you get your flat abs too!

Sometimes, we're better motivated when we know others are doing it too! :D
