I was bored so even though I had a workout planned with my sister I decided to go to the gym this afternoon.
30 min of 2 minute intervals on the elliptical level 5/level 11
Ate some food then went to work out with my sister.
Day 1 of Week 3 of couch to 5k was BRUTAL after this. Like the second interval of 3 minutes I gave up about 10 seconds before the timer went off because I thought I was...

The Goddess of squats: We were all beginner's once →
liftstheweight:
To those who are nervous and unsure about how to start out with ‘heavy lifting’ rest assured, we’ve all been there. The weights room can be an intimidating, scary place for a newbie and many aren’t quite sure how to approach it without feeling embarrassed or without feeling like you’re being ogled…
I’m gonna put this here for later

Undressed Skeleton: Low Calorie Watergate Salad... →
undressedskeleton:
My favorite dessert growing up was Watergate salad. My mom used to make it at Easter and for summer barbecues. It reminds me of my favorite ice cream, pistachio almond. I made my moms recipe for Watergate salad last night, but with a couple swaps to reduce the calories, sugar and fat.

-I just started talking to this dude. He teaches MMA and seems to be kind of into fitness so hopefully we become at least good friends because I want someone I can talk to about this stuff in person I guess. Plus he seems pretty chill in general. (ngl I’m starting to be kind of into him but I don’t want to get my hope up for nothing)

I had been stuck at 248ish for about a month and it was really starting to upset me. I mean I could see that shirts weren’t as tight and the shorts I just bought were fitting better but still upsetting. I weighed myself today because I was finally around a good scale at my sisters and I weighed in at 240.2. Soooooooooo happy with this and that makes me want to continue doing what i’m...

The pursuit of anything great is one which needs to be worked toward every single day.
But the value in your achievement does not come from reaching the goal alone, but in knowing that you accomplished your endeavor when there were no easy days.

Did the first day of the second week of couch to 5k tonight. I was terrified because I was like “I want to die after a minute I don’t know if I can do more” but it actually wasn’t horrible and I did better than my sister who is in better shape than me!
Just shows I should never doubt myself and I am working toward taking the word “can’t” out of my...

because when you stop judging others, you also stop judging yourself, and your fear of being judged flies out the window. (It also just kind of makes you a nicer person.)
We are always just meeting ourselves. Mirrors, mirrors, they’re everywhere, I tell you!

I’ve been working on my abs for a while now…like months. But I always have this annoying little pooch, or what have you, that I cannot seem to get rid of.
I stumbled upon this, and have possibly found a reason why it’s there.
“anterior pelvic tilt” happens when the…
Just realized I now have very visible collar bones...
I would take a pic but I look so bad right now.

I had been slacking so hard this week with working out but tonight I had the best cardio session in awhile. I am promising myself I will get back on track!
Tonight I will make a plan for this week and I’m actually gonna follow it. Hopefully this pulled groin muscle doesn’t mess it up too much. Sucks though because I was going to a lunge challenge this month but I really can’t...
Look how far you've gotten. It's too late to quit...
