Sticking to it

I don't know when it started for me, but I have a struggle sticking to weight loss goals. It's something I am always working hard at (eating well, exercise, etc), but also something I fail at a lot. I talk a lot about it with friends, family, and always set a ton of goals to stick to, then find myself failing at them.

I don't want to beat myself up about it anymore...I just want to do the best that I can every day.

A friend of mine posted this picture on his facebook...

 

Love it!

I want that to be my mantra for the next 2 months of my summer workout plans.

This is the life

So I had like 40 million coupons left at the end of the school year from rewards I gave out to my students, and I thought, hmmm, what to do, what to do....Why not use em up! So today my friend Lori and I went up to the Living Planet Acquarium with free tickets. My camera was being stupid, so, we got one shot of us there...

Lori and I then went down memory lane and played at Trafalga for the afternoon. I totally whipped her trash at mini golf (a game I actually hate! :D )

Um...don't really need to go in full swing doing mini golf, but hey, it got me a few hole in 1's :)

We had a million tokens, and of course, THIS is what we spent them all on...best game on earth!

And I, of course, whipped her trash again and won the game--winning the highest tickets..400! :)

AND....this is what we bought with the loot. LOL

 It was a blast! Best summer day yet...any many more to come :) Lori is the best friend of my life! This definitely is THE life... ;)

Finally...in love...

....with my bodybugg!!!

I've watched The Biggest Loser for a few seasons now and have always wondered what in the world the contestants were wearing on their arm the whole time!

This thing. Is. Amazing.

It has taken some getting used to, but I tell ya, this thing keeps me in check! I wear it on my arm from about 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. I connect it to my computer throughout the day and it helps me to stay on track with calories burned, calories eaten...etc.

Let's hope it helps me keep to my weight loss and food goals this summer :)
