Day 1- The Ugly Truth

Ok, so today is day 1.  Day 1 of my not so much fun diet and exersize plan.  Today was the day I weighed and measured myself and found the ugly facts.  I thought about not sharing it with everyone but then it would be too easy for me to cheat if I did that, so here are the facts:

Weight- 162lbs (for my height they say I should weigh about 95-125lbs.  I haven't weighed that since Jr high and the first year of high school, lol)

Waist- 42 inches

Hips- 43 inches

Bust- 38 inches

Now that I told you the embarrasing facts here's my goal.  I would like to lose around 40lbs and be back to the size I was in high school.  I know I won't be as slim around the belly until I could have a tummy tuck but I would be thrilled to lose a couple inches or atleast get rid of some of the excess fat.  I'd like to be able to fit into a size 8 pants again and actually have some shape to my ass other than flat, lol.  I don't think my goals would be too hard to achieve as long as I can stick to my plan.  My biggest struggle is going to be to cut out the fast food.  With four kids, I'm all about convienence.  I'm also a pig so cutting portions is going to be another struggle and sweets, lol.  If I could live off fast food and chocolate I would be a happy woman.  A very very fat woman, lol. 

I told you part of the reason that I want to lose weight, but here's another fact.  I had to have a health assessment done for our new insurance.  They checked my cholesterol levels and a bunch of other crap (not that I know what most of it means, lol).  When the results came back they put me in a High Risk catagory (a high risk of what, I'm not sure).  Now I have to see some kind of health counselor and follow a program that they give me.  I don't mind doing this, they are paying my insurance and if I was putting out the money for someone's health I would want to keep the costs down.  The thing that pisses me off is the fact that my husband's results came back and it said he was just fine.  What horse shit!!!  He's the one that always uses a crap load of butter and salt.  Drinks a 24 pack of Mountain Dew in a 48 hour period (and that's stretching it) and doesn't usually drain the grease when he makes hamburger (in fact he fries it in more butter).  And he's the healthy one?  His cholesterol levels are just fine, while my good cholesterol is low and my bad cholesterol is borderline high.  What gives?  Now I know I just had a baby not that long ago which is why I'm not too worried about it, and if you knew how much I weighed right before I gave birth you'd be shocked I don't weigh more, lol.  I'm not your typical pregnant woman.  I get huge and I'm not exagerating, I wish I was, but I'm not.  It was actually painful for me to carry my last 2 children.  "If it hurt you to have the 3rd one, why did you have the 4th you ask?"  Well oops!!!  I was planning on being done with the 3rd but it obviously didn't turn out that way.  Now my tubes are tied and I am officially done.  Four I think is good.  I don't know how some women have like 17 or 23 kids, I think they're out of their minds, personally.

Ok, now that I've gone on and on, I'll tell you what my day was like to prove that I'm sticking to my "plan".  For breakfast I had a glass of instant breakfast, for lunch I had half of a chicken breast with steamed zuccinni and for dinner I had half of a package of ramen noodles (I know, not exacty gourmet right :)  Then I spent 20 minutes on my new ab circle pro.  I also did some push ups, lunges, and jumping jacks.  Unfortunatly I had to stop because I had to feed my daughter and my other kids decided to dump cereal and water all over the kitchen floor.  My kids are soooo much fun, lol.  Well that's all for tonight.  See you tomorrow.
