39 days until Vegas…
hitting the gym harder than ever and getting my ass in gear! :)

I was looking back at my progress blog and it really made me sad!
I was doing so well! When I started really trying, I lost 9 lbs in my first week!
I wish I would’ve kept going. I wish I didn’t give up.
I’ve changed my thoughts about food lately. I attempted the Master Cleanse. I made it through about 5 days and then I ran out of ingredients. I would’ve bought more but I can’t afford it at this point. =P
Anyway-when I was cleansing- I realized that I really don’t need to eat that much in a day. I really tuned into my body and listened to it. I only ate minimal amounts of lettuce and veggies (only when absolutely necessary-I know you can’t eat on the cleanse). I was doing so well and I felt so good.
I’m getting my gym membership this week and am setting up a new strict plan-my no fail, calorie counting plan. It works for me and I’m sticking to it. :)
I want to have negatives everyday. I’m going to workout like a maniac! I’m so excited! :D
15% is exercise and 5% is genetics?
Idfk-something like that anyway. My mom always says that it’s all about what foods you eat and eating healthy is key to losing weight. Working out alone isn’t enough.
SO WTF kind of eating plan should I do?
I want to show results at Christmas when I go home to see my family.
Should I:
count calories?
do the nicole richie/6 week body make over plan-with 6 small meals a day-whole grains and protein and snacks even though it SOO HARD WITH MY SCHEDULE?
or do some sort of cleanse/fast?
I’ve never tried a cleanse before. Should I give it a try?
I want to get a dress like this for my vacation!

There is one right around the corner from me and I was thinking about getting a membership.
Is it a good place?
So…over the weekend I went to finish moving stuff into my apartment. Me and my bestie decided we were NOT going to eat out this weekend-because we always go out to eat, spend way too much money, and feel way too fat after. =P And sure enough we went out nearly every night-sometimes twice a day (lunch and dinner!) Shame on us! It was a set back-that’s for sure, but I now have that much more motivation. My other roommate used to be in the 200 lb range and recently lost weight. We weigh about the same now, but she carries it all in her ass and legs so you’d think she weighs more than me. She always has little comments to make about how she’s jealous of me and I’m so pretty and whatever…THERE’S MY MOTIVATION! Not to be better than her, but to show her-I can do this! Don’t brag about your weight loss and try to be smaller than me. It simply won’t happen. I’m better than you now-when we’re fat…and you better believe I will be better than you when I’m skinny. She’s the type to lecture about working out and eating right…and then you go to her car and find 136529562396530976534 fast food bags…she’s all talk, no action. I will be all action and show her how fit and sexy I can get. She’s going to be so jealous. (Now I know that’s not what it’s about, but it’s giving me motivation so I’m going with it.)

Okay-so about a year ago I was snooping around online looking for a Britney Spears-ish workout. Apparently this is her exact workout routine she followed when she was in her “prime” (I’m guessing the early 2000’s). I love it…but it takes me forever because I’m so out of shape, but after you accomplish it you feel great!
I’m going to start doing this again-I just wish I still had my treadmill.

Yup that’s a total of 1950 ab exercises…how else do you think Britney looked so hot?!?!?!
Last but not least…STRETCH! And maybe take a yoga or pilates class on one of your off days.
And there you have it: Britney’s Insane Workout! :)
