1 mile down!

heyyy, so on to another fitness chat:

i just finished a 2.270mile run about 10 minutes ago. i spent about 30 minutes doing so but i honestly don't care, lol. i completed a mile run at 5.5. mph in about 11:30 mins. so yeah, you might think that's crap but thats actually my best mile time, EVER. before it was about 13:25 back in my freshman year. i was the second to last that time, surprisingly. lol. after my mile, i just jogged and walked the rest of the miles until i reached my 30 min. mark. something strange: during that run, i was EXHAUSTED. i was like, out of breath, weezing, i could barely get my legs moving the whole time. buttt, once i was done, i was completely fine! hah! a part of me was telling me that i should stop, and that i need to rest. another part was telling me "BITCH, GET THE FUCK ON!" haha, more like: if you don't challenge your body, you wont get the results you want. so, my work-outs are motivated by that now, and by a certain new crushhh... but that's beside the point ;) hahaa

i dont know if i told you guys but right now, my weight is at 133.4 lbs. if you remember, i was once 142 when i first decided to get active so, in my opinion, i dont think i did half bad, hah. im also adding weight lifting and core strength training to get my abs in checkk (summer's knockin', and im dying to answer!) now, this (and my consumption of protein shakes) may add to my weight but truthfull, my weight isnt all im worried about. i mean, yeah, it's nice to go down a couple pounds, but i'd rather gain weight in muscle, be lean and toned, and lose inches around my body than be skin and bones with nothing to show except numbers on a scale. plus, being skinny doesnt always mean youre healthy so i live by that now.

ALSO, i've turned to the pescetarian lifestyle now. i enable myself to eat seafood but those are the ONLY animals i eat. sometimes i dont even eat them. just veggies, fruits, and grains. but hey, they lead to beneficial things too, eyy? lol

well, i need to shower. i'm all icky.

day 15!

Hello alll!

Its early in the morning and I'm eating breakfast while watching family guy and writing this little entry.

So as I've explained to you guys, I've been eating a LOT LOT lately. Because of the possible fat gain (lol), I've decided to bump up my cardio workouts. I'm still keeping most of my strength training and weight lifting in first period but instead of walking at night, I've decided to run/jog instead. So monday, wednesday and friday mornings, I jog for 10 minutes along with a few ab exercises. Every evening I'll do about 10 to 15 minutes of aerobic training along with a few minutes on the jump rope (just to switch it up). I've done research that all said that walking is great but higher intensity workout like jogging or running is better if your goal is weight loss so I've decided to give it a shot. All this in combination of more calories burned than consumed.

I'm excited for school today! Well, kind of. Today in fitness, we've got our pilates day! I absolutely LOVE pilates so I'm definitely gonna be really in the zone today! Lol. Unfortunately, I have 2 tests today, one in biology and one in spanish 3. Gay shit man. Lol

Wish me luck, por favor :)

day 7!

so i've told yall about my little workout regimen right? yep, well its day 7 of that, congrats to mee! haha

here's my set up so far:
5 days a week, i have my first block fitness class that involves strength training and weight lifting to help with my toning and muscle building stuffff. 6 days a week, i walk every evening for 45 minutes at 3.5 mph at a 1% incline. the walks alone burn about 250 calories per walk, all this information according to my treadmill, of course. then on mondays, wednesdays, and fridays i wake up an extra 20 minutes or so to do a 15 minute run (or a mile) at 5mph.

hopefully that'll be good for now. i know, i needa increase but i figured that i need to actually accomplish my goals at these levels before i move on, i dont knoww, seems right. lol.

oh! and my victoria's secret orders came in today with somaly's package! i was so excited to see 2 packages with my name on it. haha. well anywhooo... the bathing suit is adoooorable! like i put it on once i got to my room, lol. the top actually fits pretty swell but having it on i saw all the problem areas i needed to work on. my tummy, legs, and BUTTT! gees, i hate my ass, i really do. its always been a problem for me but im dedicated this year to whip it into shape! haha. i tell ya, all the cardio and strength training really does the work, my butt muscles are really tightening up, believe me!

with that in mind, i know it'll keep me motivated - along with a few special people. :)
so, i've decided to make this my little fitness blog/journal as well as just my everyday life. you'll be able to tell by the title what an entry is about so if it starts with "day..." then you may not wanna read it. lol

i got body measurements! and dont be surprised at how huge i am, i know this and im trying to fix it!
bust = 33 in.
waist = 28 in.
hips = 39 in.
& my current weight is about 142 lbs. yes im a fat pig, but i WILL lose weight and get in shape. i PROMISE you :)

let's get physical!

okay so, we had another snow day today. yippee! thanks to the snow, ice, and sleet, not to mention the cold ass weatherr!

well today was pretty much like yesterday, except i went for a 35 minute walk! yay me! haha. lately, i've been feeling really like exercise friendly. like, i'm in a get fit mood which im actually pretty glad i'm in cus i really need this, especially with the heat wave coming soon!
my plan is to do all my cardiovascular type workouts at home on the treadmil(thank GOD i have one!) and then focus strength training and weight lifting for my fitness class. so, i'll be getting up at 4:45 to 5 every morning to attempt to run a mile. then go to school and do my strength training stuff. i'll come home, eat, do my homework and then go for like a 30 - 45 minute inclined walk. then MAYBE go for a small snack before bed if im up for it. lol.

i just REALLY need to get committed to this workout regimen because i always do it in the beginning and then slowly fade away from it. its sad, i need to wake up with motivation! which is why i bought that baithing suit yesterday. i hope that this will work because i wanna get fit for the summer time. i miss wearing shorts and skirts :( haha

wish me luck on this!

oh, if you have any tips feel free to leave them :)
