Time for a weigh in because it has been a couple of weeks!

weighin-06192013

It has been about 3 weeks since I’ve done a weigh in on this site and those weeks looked like this:

Not surprisingly, all three pounds came off last week after I got back from my trip.  I’ve lost some inches as well. I’ll be updating you on measurements at the end of my 6 week plan with my trainer.

I’m excited to have 4 weeks of solid training without a big trip so I can focus and hopefully see more results!

What I’ve Been Eating, in Pictures

by Stephanie June 18, 2013

Part of my persona trainer’s plan is to change my diet so this past week and a half I’ve really been focusing on eating according to his recommendations.  It hasn’t been as hard as I thought it would be to stay away from most grains but I think that is because I’ve been searching out [...]

You Are So Much More Than Just “Pretty”

by Stephanie June 16, 2013

This video.  I can’t not talk about it or share it. (link to video in case the embed doesn’t show for you) This is one of those nights where I’m up way too late with way too much on my mind.  As my generation does, I’m distracting myself with YouTube videos until I’m tired. I [...]

Recipe: Kale & Sausage Soup

by Stephanie June 12, 2013

I’m not really a food blogger or a recipe creator but sometimes I have just enough inspiration from something I’ve eaten before to try my hand at making a dish without a recipe. I first had a soup similar to this at my friend Nina’s house.  She tends to be a good influence when it [...]

Gutentag from Germany!

by Stephanie June 6, 2013

Well friends, I’m in Germany! This is the first of my international travels this summer. So far it has been a pretty good trip, though I did forget to bring any camera except my iPhone.  Whoops. I landed in Frankfurt on Tuesday and rented a car with two of my coworkers to drive to Mannheim.  [...]

Personal Training (Or Admitting I Need Help)

by Stephanie May 30, 2013

It is no secret that I’ve been struggling.  If you look at my posts from the last year and a half I’ve tried over and over to get back on track with healthy eating, training, and weight loss.  Most recently I said I was going to tackle Jillian Michael’s Body Revolution.  That didn’t work either. [...]

Memorial Day

by Stephanie May 29, 2013

For Memorial Day weekend this year I was visiting my family in Georgia.  Unfortunately my Dad went back into the hospital at the beginning of last week so most of the weekend was spent there.  BUT, if you think it is impossible to have fun in the hospital you’d be dead wrong! (Terrible pun.  Dead. [...]

The Summer of Travel

by Stephanie May 23, 2013

Hello! Anybody still out there? Have you forgotten me? I can’t believe its been two weeks since I’ve posted.  I guess life just got in the way.  Honestly, the first week I didn’t post because I was pretty down in the dumps for quite a while.  This week I’ve bounced back but work has been [...]
