My husband got me into it. I had always wanted to lose weight so it was easy to talk me into it.
Why I Love It:
It really makes me feel good. It helps raise my confidence, puts me in a good mood, it gives me something to look forward to in the future. Not to mention the nice workout high you get after your weight training/cardio.
How I Stay Motivated:
I've gone into this realistically. I don't expect to transform my body quickly. I understand it's going to take a while. I also don't kick my ass. I go at my own pace. I just go with the flow basically. This all really helps keep me from getting let down and losing motivation. I also keep myself motivated by thinking about how much healthier I am going to be and how much better I am going to feel in my own skin.

What Seewahbee Is Up To:

Seewahbeeupdated Fit Status "Another good weigh in. Dr. on Friday! Going to update measurements."
I have always been a bit on the heavy side. My long term goal is to lose as much weight and tone as much muscle as necessary to make myself comfortable in my own skin. I'm not doing this for anyone but myself. My long term goal weight is 130 lbs.
Other than the obvious benefits (appearance, health, etc.), how has bodybuilding and fitness improved your overall life?
I feel great. I have a lot more energy. I'm in a better mood. And the best thing is I've pretty much stopped having headaches.

How has bodybuilding and fitness helped and/or changed your family life?
I'm definitely a lot happier since I started working out. It really seems to take a lot of my stress away which keeps me from taking anything out on those close to me.

Do you track your workouts (exercises, weight, reps, etc.)?
Yes
If so, how do you do it? Workout log, software program, etc.? Why do you do it this way?
If I notice I need to up my weights I write the new weights down and put them on the workout tracker on this site.
I'm very proud of myself right now. I know it's only been a few days but I can't believe how well I am doing. Not even a slip up in the food intake. I've also been very active. If I can keep this up for three months straight...woooooooweeeeeeeeee I could lose a ton of weight!...
You are doing so amazing!!! Keep it up!!! It will all be so worth it! No matter how rediculous Chaddy thinks it is...lol It's how you feel about you that matters.
gurl I have been in between second jobs.. I havent been training in many months :( im trying to get back on it once I get my schedule the way I want it
Thank you :) I am feeling better now. I realize that I can still workout my upper body. :) Good job on your meals. Btw. Like the title. Made me lol. hehe
hey gurl! thanks for the blog comment! usually when I just start back up with cardio I get that feeling in my feet too. lol I hate it. I wiggle my toes around and it usually goes away after a few minutes. How have you been? I have well BEEN! working alot of overtime because I need the money and stuff and trying to find another job and get back to eating right and stuff! its exhausting! lol well hope you have a lovely memorial day!
Thank you so much! Its all in the diet. I have worked out till I dropped so many times, and the wight doesnt move if the diet is off. Good luck in your near training and diet!
Hey lady. How are you feeling? Thanks for posted the progress pics. I am so proud of you guys. I know it not an easy task. But we are gonna make this thing happen!!! You're legs look nice and celebrate every little accomplishment you have made this far. It only gets better from here!!!
ya know I love tuna and thats the one thing I havent eaten in a while. because I love tuna salad. my mom makes a killer tuna salad and a chicken salad so crunchy with pecans and pineaplle OMG everyone at RAVES over that! I plan on buying more beef. I was actually going to try and follow the atkins diet which is what my mom and dad are on now but like any other diet you have to be able to follow and stay with it. Thank you for your comment on my blog
hope you feel better soon! my advice to get you back on track once you feel better is to get your food intake in strict order. what you eat comprises 80% of your results!
