Hazel & Aimee

Hazel - I have come to the realization that I am my biggest -OBSTACLE- when I set my mind to it I can do it!   I have not been exercising the way I should have and did during week 1-3... I lost 2 pounds and I am pleased but I know I could do so much better. I have not been eating as I should and not putting in the effort in exercising.  So I need to get myself back in gear and focus. Some personal issues came up but I have now resolved them I will be able to refocus on my goal.  Hasta luego... Y buena suerte.

Aimee –Even with the hurdles that I have crossed in relation with by back... I feel I did much better this week. I’m working with a balance ball and doing other exercises to strengthen my back.  I feel the difference a week has made and I think next week I’ll be doing more aerobic exercises. I lost a pound this week anyways... YAY! That’s a pound more than I thought I would lose given I’m not doing much. So YAY to Hazel and me... WOO HOO!!

Hazel - OMG   this week sucks...... It was my birthday week and I lost 0 pounds but I did not gain any so I guess it works out I am sooo disappointed.. I tell you what losing weight is such a never-ending battle... But I plan to get back on it..

Cross your fingers for me... Plan to do better in week 5

Aimee – Ok... I hate to admit this but pounds lost this week: 0, zip, nada. I am happy I did not gain though. My exercise routine was almost non-existent. I‘ll be doing extra time on the workout front. I am proud that I have increased my water intake. I not a fan. I cut soda ages ago and have been trying to increase how much water I drink by only stocking it in the fridge. This has only led me to not drink much of anything. Lol. Next week we will improved.

Hazel: Weighed myself this morning and the scale said 256.3 I cannot believe it another 5 pounds . I have to admit I Hate  exercising but I do it... I have to motivate myself and just say "DO IT" once I get started it is not so bad, I have to constantly remind myself that I am making a lifestyle change and keep my mind on the goal. Candy has started to emerge at work but I have held strong. LOL not easy.  Cooking meals that I can eat and my family will enjoy has been a challenge but they have been very supportive. So all in all it has been a challenging week but with good results.  Good Luck everyone keep up the good work.

Aimee: I did better & worse this week. I kicked up the exercising up a notch but was naughty when it came down to food choices when I went out. My weight loss for this week is 1lb. I refuse to be disappointed it’s a still a loss. Hazel and I got together for a family style upper body workout. It was so much fun. Talk about cardio... it was exhausting. I see attached photos for a visual. lol

Hazel: Ok so I made it through the week. I did pretty good I must say... I lost 4 pounds!

I drank lots of water and brought in my lunch from work. I found that preplanning what I am going to eat really works.

I did not exercise much this week but that was because I was busy concentrating on my food. I did however find a coworker to walk with on my fifteen minute breaks. She is now inspired and has started to diet and we may even start walking for half an hour during our lunch time.  That is all for now attached you will find a picture of the scale with my new weight.

Aimee: Week 2 was much better. I got my food in order and I’m making healthier choices at work. I didn’t exercise as much as I wanted but I got some time in. I need to kick up the exercise up a notch. Hazel and I plan on meeting up at least once a week to do some activities together. The outcome for this week... 3 pounds! YAY!
