Boot Camp; Week 1, Day 2 2008-03-05 12:28:00 For those that watched my videos "Bev's Got a Secret" you saw that I started my 12 week "Boot Camp
" yesterday. Yesterday was mostly a day of planning and getting everything together and today, even though it was Day 2, was actually the start as far as a scheduled day and rigorous exercise goes.
I woke at 630am to begin my day with water and cooking a big breakfast. I will be trying to log
11th Week Weigh-In 2008-03-03 17:14:00 I didn't exercise at all this past week, which is quite a change from Week 10 where I exercised for 5 days lol. So I need to get with it and exercise this next week, Week 12!
I did manage to lose though! I lost:

That brings me down to 178 pounds and a total of 7 pounds gone thus far! I hope to see a bigger loss next week and some exercise!

Reinforcing my Resolve! 2008-02-28 17:25:00 The title was inspired by a weight watcher's online achiever story I had read here. I have been wanting to give up lately. I will do good and then I will do bad and its a cycle I can't seem to get out of.
However, something happened. Not sure how to explain it but something inside clicked and I got renewed motivation. It started with my shiny sink. You are probably saying what!?
I have Read more:Resolve
The Devil Made Me Do It!!!!!!! 2008-02-27 17:28:00 So I had gone a while without having any red meat, I was craving a burger so bad yesterday! I made dinner for my family, "healthy" sloppy joes and was going to eat one myself. I took a bite and couldn't even stand to chew it......so the trash ended up getting that!
So I went without dinner. Here I am SOOOOOO hungry and it was around 9pm as we were driving home and we stopped at Burger King. Read more:Devil

Friday Day 4, Week 10 2008-02-23 01:10:00 Oh what a WONDERFUL workout I had tonight! It felt like "old times" when I was a workout-aholic lol. It was hard to stop because it felt so good.....I really love to weight lift, I think I would rather do that any day than do cardio!
My eating wasn't great considering I started my morning with 4 cookies and then I had 2 candy bars after dinner, but hey -- normally it's 3 or 4 when I get the Read more:Friday

Thursday Day 3, Week 10 2008-02-21 22:55:00 Today was another good day, except for the fact that there is something wrong with my body. My shingles is coming back and some other issues that I was "supposed" to go to the doctor for but just kept putting it off and now I gotta go, so hopefully tomorrow or Monday I can get to the doctor.
I have been drinking water like crazy! About 10-12 cups a day! That is roughly 80-96 oz, so definitely Read more:Thursday

9th Week Weigh In 2008-02-18 14:36:00 You can refer back to the post "I've Been BAD!" and see why my weigh in was the way it was today. I'm up 3 pounds!!!! I weighed in at 180 pounds EEK!
That was pretty shocking but I'm still bloated, feeling sick at my stomach still and now have blisters on my lips, so something has stirred up my fever blisters. Usually its stress that does but this week I think it was that HAMBURGER! The Read more:Weigh
I've Been BAD! 2008-02-16 17:03:00 Ok I confess.....as the title states: "I've Been BAD!" It started with chocolate, then with a dirty kitchen and not feeling like cooking, so since the "No Fast Food Challenge" is over now I went and got my fill on Thursday. LOL I know BAD! I had some popcorn chicken, macaroni and cheese, etc from KFC. But it isn't seeming to stop........
You see me and my daughter had a bonding moment on
Digesting Meat 2008-02-14 18:16:00 Sorry for so many posts today but I just found this and had to share! I got this from Oprah's website, it was a Q & A with doctors answering the questions. You can see all the Q & A's here.
Q: How long does it take to digest food?
A: Your body can digest most food in less time it takes hot shot celebrities to get engaged: about four to 12 hours. Fruits are the fastest travelers on the
