Keto and Myself
I thought I would actually take time to write here, an actual entry for others to read. I’ve tried a lot of fad diets, and counting calories, and all this other stuff to lose weight. It’s hard. I don’t care who says what, no matter what you do it is going to be difficult, as you are changing the way you operate, a habit that is so ingrained into your psyche that it can’t be...

It’s been a while since I’ve made a journaling post here. But here we go.
I fell off the wagon. Sometime mid last year I just gave up, saying I’ll get back to it later, when I have more time. It frustrates me that I just made excuse after excuse. So I’ve picked it up again. I’m doing the c25k Program again, and am determined to follow through. I’m hoping to...
This hurts
Really, I think I just ran my breakfast away. But totally worth it. C25K you will not defeat me this time!
Picking up the slack
Oh my god, do I hurt. SO FUCKING WORTH IT

The First week
Good god everyone rants about the first three or four weeks, but I’m talking about week number one here.
When we’ve got our workout schedules and eating habits all in line.
Week one is hard, because you have high hopes, and you might push yourself too hard.
Best advice?
Start slow.

Picking it up again
This time with more enthusiasm. I stopped doing c25k for a while because “it hurt” and my “ankle hurt”. Honestly I’m kind of ashamed at how quickly I quit, however this time? This time I’m making pain my bitch. I’m not letting other people bring me down because honestly what good can they do? I won’t hold myself up to others standards but my own, and...

I don't want to look like a Victoria Secret model....
Mmmm Breakkers
So first off, I tried the insanity fit test. OMFGHALP. Totally worth it but man do I feel really out of shape now!
Also getting into yoga!
NOMNOM PEANUTBUTTER TOAST!
Damn roomie
Sprained her ankle…ended up making me carry up 60 pounds of litter and cat food. On the bright side I did it. On the bad side my back is frigging killing me. Stupid boxes of litter.
RAJ YOU ARE A KLUTZ DAMN IT
Another great food tip
If you are…-ahem-…like me and enjoy your daily sweets, try freezing grapes. They are a sweet little additive to your day, that isn’t something that is high in sugars and calories. They are hard to eat fast, so you slow down, but a bag of frozen grapes (off the vine) lasts about a month.
It’s been helping curb my sweet tooth.
Breakfast Burritos!
Hi guys! Being a veggie (that is myself I am!) I really am iffy on breakfast burritos. Not because they contain egg (well yes to that too because I can’t eat eggs, they make me sick!), but because they tend to be loaded with bacon and sausage and cheese, and potentially losing all the goodness a burrito can have!
So I made my own.
Here are my ingredients, some garlic, tortillas, green...

yes and please!
Doing things healthy
Most people think doing things healthy is by crash dieting and changing all at once. It isn’t. In fact, doing things healthy takes time, because you aren’t going on a diet, you are changing your habits into a new lifestyle. Crash diets, fad diets, the like, they don’t work. You may see results, but when the “diet” is over you just relapse into your old eating habits,...
A few good tips
You can’t change anything about yourself, weightloss, self image, etc, if you are not willing to change anything in your life.
Starting Anew
Hi! My name is Mara! This is me.
Not very impressive huh? I didn’t think so either. Oh! And for giggles here is a picture of me and the dog.
Shockingly enough, I’ve been trying to lose weight since the start of the year, and I’ve lost about 25 pounds so far. I am always trying to continue and better my fitness, and improve my body. This blog will be filled with exercises...
