My Goals
Ultimate Long Term weight goal: 179 (my high school weight)
Mini Goals:
October 8 (friend's wedding...I'm a bridesmaid-EEK!): 230
From now (Aug 29) until October 8th, i have exactly 6 weeks to lose 30 pounds. Yes, it is a lofty goal. But many people see losses of up to 25 lbs in 6 weeks from Slim in 6 alone. I'm adding a semi-liquid diet and fat-burning supplements to that, plus I'm starting at a very high weight, which means my body will release a lot of weight in the first few weeks. If you aim for the moon and miss, at least you'll land among the stars :)
October 31 (Halloween): 220
I'd like to shed 10 more pounds in the 3 weeks between the wedding and Halloween. It is my absolute FAVORITE time of the year and I take my costume and partying seriously! lol....I plan to be either Marie Antoinette or a Black Swan, and feeling chubby just won't do......
January 23 (girls' trip to Puerto Rico - must be bikini ready!): 197
This right here is the real goal. I'm going on a girls trip to San Juan, Puerto Rico at the end of january. I'm going with 3 girls who could very easily be video models (one of them actually IS one). Perfect bodies and beautiful faces.....I REFUSE to be the fat friend on this trip! I want to get down to a weight/size where I'd feel comfortable frolicking on the beach like everybody else!
May 27 (Memorial Day 2012): going back to Miami for Black Beach Week. Weight Goal: 179
Enough said!

My Workout Plan
Slim in 6 plus added Cardio!
Debbie Seibers has never failed me when i needed to drop lbs and tone up fast. I'm doing the 6-day a week workout, plus adding in additional cardio a few days a week on my lunch break to accelerate my fat loss.
Week 1:
6 days: Start it up(26 min) or Ramp it up (47 min) + 3-5 additional cardio workouts (elliptical/treadmill)
Week 2:
6 days: Ramp it Up (47 minutes) + 3-5 additional cardio workouts
Week 3:
6 days: Burn it Up (56 minutes) + 3-5 additional cardio workouts
Week 4:
6 days: Burn it Up (56 minutes) + 3-5 additional cardio workouts
Week 5:
6 days: Burn it Up or Tone it Up (56 minutes) + 3-5 additional cardio workouts
Week 6:
6 days: Burn it Up or Tone it Up (56 minutes) + 3-5 additional cardio workouts
After the 6-week program, I'll evaluate my results. I may decide to do another 6-week round, or I may decide to do other workouts instead (I've got tons of DVDs, including Jillian Michaels and Biggest Loser Bootcamp).

My Diet Plan
Basic Premises:
-low/moderate carbohydrates
-high protein
-low calorie
-lots of water!
I'll be using Muscle Milk as a meal replacement for breakfast and snacks, and have a healthy low-calorie lunch and dinner. My average day will look something like this:
7:00 am: protein shake
9:00 am: protein shake, coffee
11:00 am: protein shake
2:00 pm: lunch (300 calories)
3:30 pm: protein shake
5:30pm: protein shake
7:30pm: dinner (300-400 calories)
Each protein shake is about 100-150 calories. Overall, I'm trying to keep my calorie intake between 1200-1600. I think variation will keep me from plateauing.
This is a variation of the Impatient Dieter's plan here. I've used it before and got phenomenal results! The only problem was that i had not planned for maintenance, and I immediately went back to bad habits and stopped working out. I'm determined to get the weight off and KEEP it off!

Here I am. Again.
Weighed in at 260 this morning. My highest weight ever. I'm tired of the yo-yo. This blog is going to chronicle my journey OUT of the 200s, once and for all!
A little about me: My name is Theresa, I'm 28 years young, and I've been battling my weight for most of my life. I inherited emotional eating habits from my mom and have had an unhealthy love/hate relationship with food for as long as i can remember.
At 5'9" with an hourglass shape, I've always carried my weight well, which is a double-edged sword really. This is because it's easy to gain weight without people noticing, which makes it easier to be in denial. I told myself I'd NEVER get over 250, and look at me now!
But i'm not about to throw a pity party or berate myself for being fat. i have a PLAN, and I intend to keep going. Kick off my shoes, and swim good....(Frank Ocean) :)
join me on my journey!
