Third day of the year, workout done, water almost done, tracking.

SMART Goal = I will lose 20 pounds by June 7, 2016 by drinking water, exercising, and tracking what I eat. #smartgoals #resolutions #startfresh #success #ZUMBA #DAYBYDAY
At least 10 minutes a day.
I'll take 0.7 rounded up to 1 pound lost this week.
Hard to stay on track, but I'll just keep tracking.
Day in South Padre Island. Spring Break 2017.
Plan to wake up and use the hotel fitness room. #goals
Wave watching always helps me clear my head.
Love the new community feed. Weight Watchers better watch out.
I so want to sleep.
Said I was going to visit the hotel's fitness center. I did! Elliptical, treadmill, and weights.
Woke up craving pancakes, happened upon a rib instead. So I made this to go with.
I quit! This is too hard.
Vacation is over. Spring Break 2017 is over. 53 more days until my summer vacation.
I'm going to wake up and workout.
Finally weighed in. It had been 49 days. I gained 2 pounds. That's OK. Starting over 1st day of Spring. #startfresh #wontstop
Started off right. I worked out and had breakfast.
No time for a full workout this morning, but got in at least 10.
Worked out only 50 days this year. 50 more days of school. My goal is 50 more marbles and 14 pounds. #accountability #turtleclub #fitbit
Committed to my morning Zumba evwn though I hit the snooze a few times.
Question - If you wake up in the middle of the night and run to the kitchen, do you track it? Where? For the day that hasn't begun or the day that just ended?
Missed my morning Zumba workout, but got it in after work. I now know my body likes mornings better. I stopped the songs a couple of times.
I missed my morning workout, but trying to stay committed to at least 10 minutes a day. First week almost done.
Something is better than nothing. Trying to ease back into burning those calories.
Did you get in your water? #goals
How do you get in your water? #goals
1 egg, power greens, mushrooms, oscar mayer turkey, and a sprinkle of taco cheese.
Still frustrated about this morning's weigh in. I am ready to get all in. This is a good reminder to just stay focused. 
And I did that this morning. I knew I would be doing a lot of walking at work today, so I did a 20 minute Zumba Core workout. 
Grilled catfish and a Taylor Farms Cobb Salad 419 calories for lunch.
I am waiting on a report from my school to see if I can submit this final paper for this class. I did not move much today, but I tracked everything, and when I did find time, I spent it walking. 
I worked out this morning, Zumba Core.
Go me!
Trying to get my groove back. Stickers = I worked out!
It was only 0.4, but I guess I can be happy I didn't gain. Another thing, it's only been 5 days since I last weighed in. ?? club and that's OK.
A little frustrated with the scale, but can't stop, won't stop! Zumba!
Next week 45,000 is my minimum.
Next week 45,000 is my minimum. #Fitbit
Surpassed thw average of 8,000 a day. Next week, my minimum is 9,000 a day = 45,000 steps. #Fitbit
Evening workout Zumba 2.
Do you track all your fruits and vegetables?
Homework, lesson plans, and grading. #notenoughtime
Not sure I'm going to make the morning workout. It's in 4 hours and I...
I didn't get in my morning Zumba due to lack of sleep, but I threw on the Zumba music and walked to the beat of it while my students were typing.
Trying to get in my sleep, knowing even though I was sleepy today I still got up and moved.
I hit the snooze 3 times today, but I still got up and worked out. Why? Because I have to answer to one of my students tomorrow. He checks with me every other day to see if I worked out. He tells the whole class if I didn't. I get to add marbles to my jar for every time I did workout. 
I worked out! Didn't get in my AM workout, but walked away the pounds and lifted 5 pound weights for a total of 38 minutes.
Been working out and sweating daily.
8,000 steps is my goal. Looked down two minutes ago and saw 9,901 steps. Got out of my bed to hit 10,000 steps!?
Still walking while my students are typing. Today I had some kids offer to join me.
My knees were hurting when I got out of bed this morning, so I put the Zumba on hold today. Still got my fix though, Zumba music while students were working, and I got in my steps.
Regardless of what the scale says, I'm getting a pedicure today.
At least the scale moved. Down 0.7 since last week. Slow but steady ?? wins the race.
One egg, spinach, chard, kale, mushrooms, onions, bell peppers, a pinch of taco cheese, and guacamole salsa. Yummy to my tummy.
2nd place this week, but still beat my 45,000 step goal! ? #fitbit
Trying portion control with smaller plates. 1/2 cup combination fried rice, 1/2 cup Mongolian beef. Oh, and 1 piece of orange chicken.
Daily weigh in working in my favor so far. Down another 0.4.
Tired of this plateau! I am about to bust through it. 
Plateau busting! 
Had not done Hip Hop Abs in years. My husband joined me today. #Fitbit #couples #fun #beachbody
Daily weigh in still working in my favor. Down another 0.2 pounds. Day 3.
Morning 10 minutes done. ?
Hooked on Hip Hop Abs once again! I love Shawn T! Just have to work on my sleep.
I meant to post this earlier! I am determined to bust through this plateau that I am in. I started the plateau busting challenge, and I am getting my water in. And my workouts? No exceptions! I have to make them happen! 
Well today's daily weigh in says I gained it all back overnight. Just testing the waters right? I am not this number. It shows I'm up 1.1 lbs. Dear weight' don't fluctuate (at least not the wrong way, do it the right way).
I have to keep moving, no matter what the scale says. Knocked out my first 10 minutes for the day.
Walked at work.
Missed my morning workout and weigh in.
Forgot I'm supposed to weigh in daily. I guess I'll do it tomorrow.
Student saw me sitting and asked if I had all my steps in. I'm sure he just wanted to hear music. Didn't matter, it got me up and moving.
For all the days you say you can't!
Got in a quick Zumba workout!
Going to have to keep moving, even though I have an extra day off if I'm trying to keep my lead on the Workweek Hustle. #Fitbit
Stepping it up this week. It's been a long time since I was over 50,000 steps. #Fitbit
I don't know if Christina is going to bed, but I am. I was #1 when I got in bed. Go me!
0.6 pounds since last Saturday, but 1.1 pounds since Tuesday, which is the last day I weighed in.
I was in a couple of challenges this week. I commit to 55,000 next week. Watch me! #fitbit
Final results are in!
So proud of myself. I stepped up the steps this week. Next week 55,000 steps. #Fitbit
The scale is not matching with this 5 weeks of working out. 
The scale is not matching with this 5 weeks of working out. 
This happens often. Ugh!
It's Monday!
Walking at a pace that has me sweating. #Fitbit
Zumba!
How I feel after Zumba.
Zumba done!
Yesterday! #Fitbit
I love that my students now remind me to get up and walk
Willpower is like motivation, Clara. You have to consciously work to strengthen it if you hope to maintain it.
Got in the Zumba once again.
What worked for others, may not work for you!
Said I was going to aim for 11,000 a day, so far so good!
Fitbit blacked out and stopped working today. So unmotivated now. #Fitbit
I did walk even though my Fitbit didn't count it. I walked all over the building. Internet was down in the office, so I did not have music, but I still broke a sweat. 
Zumba with the husband this morning.
So happy, worked my butt off this week. I lost 3.7 pounds.
Plateau busted!
Zumba with the husband is so fun. If only he had agreed years ago.
Hip Hop Abs today!
It feels good to workout, even without the Fitbit.
Had to order a new Fitbit. I felt my motivation waning. 
Still crying over my Fitbit. I cannot wait until the new one gets here.
Trying to love it, but cannot. I need my Fitbit!
Why I miss my Fitbit...I worked out 40 minutes, but my phone picked up only 27 minutes.
Down 4.8 pounds this month so far. I guess this is the first month I have been serious since January. Hoping for 9.2 more by June 3rd. 
Husband is still working out with me in the AM. I love it!
Still working out while waiting on my new Fitbit!
My feet hurt!
Would have been a great day in the Workweek Hustle on #Fitbit!
Short on time this morning, but had to at least get 10 minutes in.
Committed to at least 30 minutes a day. I had sit down training today, and now I have homework, so I had to find a way to get some more activity.
Suppose to be working on a paper, but once again, I am on www.SparkPeople.com. I have to do better. 
Zumba!
Not sure I'll be able to get many more steps. I have homework to do.
Finished my homework. I am about to go watch one of my shows, and hit the sack so I can wake up and do it all again tomorrow. 
Zumba done! I'm a Zumba Master!
Walk, walk, walk, walk walk!
I did not want to workout this morning, but I'm trying to stay committed to at least 10 minutes a day. Zumba baby!
Breakfast = kale, ham, egg, sprinkle of mozzarella cheese.
The scale keeps going up. Something is going wrong. Scale says I gained another 1.8 pounds yesterday, after saying I gained 4 in a week. Most active last week. #Iquit
Thank you to all who read my venting session and encouraged me to keep going. I moped and complained yesterday, and I even went to a Korean Bbq spot that is all you can eat. I was really done. But I read each and every post, and I'm going to keep trying. April is over, it's time for a fresh start. Here's to May! #Fitbit #keepmoving #don'tquit #turtleclub
He's so smart. I'm glad my fitbit arrived yesterday. Gotta be in it to win it.
Ready for May!
So happy my new fitbit is in. Back at it. #fitbit #motivation
Hoping May will turn out better than April.
The scale is a tricky little thing. Down 3.7 pounds overnight. I've been weighing daily to try to see if something's going wrong.
I am tired! #fitbit
Quick Zumba workout this morning and just enough walking to get in 10,000 steps.
Teacher appreciation week this week. A student ordered pizza yesterday and had it delivered to me today. 
Missed my morning workout, and didn't want to workout this evening. My husband says, "You'll feel better if you do!" So I did, and I do!
1st, 2nd, and 3rd place in my Workweek Hustle's.
Making small changes! #Fitbit
4.9 pounds in a week. I still say something is wrong with the scale.
Feeling 5 pound lighter!
Started my day with Hip Hop Abs!
STAAR testing has me up and moving. #fitbit
Potluck lunch at work today. I made an Asian Chicken Salad. It was a hit! Had to taste a little bit of everything though. Moderation not deprivation.
Trying to be in it to win it this time. #fitbit
Zumba!
Trying to convince myself to do at least a short 18 - 20 minute workout.
I really didn't want to, but I have to answer to one of my students tomorrow. Completed 19 minute low intensity Zumba workout.
Had to hit 10,000 even though I did not feel like it. #fitbit #goalday #workweekhustle
Zumba Master!
Allergies got the best of me this week. Congratulations to all the hotsteppers! #fitbit
Hitting the sack early tonight. I got in 10,000+ steps though. #fitbit
Zumba this morning. Walking all day. I don't know what I'm going to do when school's out and I don't have my students encouraging me to move.
Gained 0.4 pounds in 2 weeks. It's got to be muscle, because I've been working my butt off.
week 10 of my streak for "Exercise for at least 90 minutes per week" earned 5/20/2017
New week, new goals! 65,000 this week. #fitbit
2 short Zumba workouts first thing this morning.
Zumba with the husband and walking until I hit 10,000 steps.
Summer usually is my time to get up and move constantly. I took on summer school (what was I thinking), and my teenager is stressing me (trying to get her on a plane ASAP), and I'm still in grad school. I'm tired. I need to refocus and remember this commitment I made to myself. 
Still stuck in the plateau. Gained 2.2 pounds. The weight goes up, down, up, down. Frustrated, but very aware of my habits over the last two weeks. I need to be committed. I did a lot of eating out with family in town for my daughter's graduation. I did less working out too. Sounds like a good day to start over.
It's not all black and white. Down 1.5 in one day.
I'm a Zumba Jet-Setter!
Now I can go to sleep. #fitbit
Why I hate daily weigh-ins.
Missed my AM workout to get this girl her license!
Wednesday Weigh-in - No change.
Zumba! I hate working out in the afternoon, but I had to get it in. 45 minutes of Zumba.
Zumba in the afternoon again. I like my morning workouts so much better. Need to get it in, and get it over.
Looking for some motivation. I have a 3 day weekend, and today I feel like just lounging. The Workweek Hustle is still going on though, so eventually, I've got to get up and move. #fitbit #motivation

60 minutes of Zumba today, and still not leading the pack in the Workweek Hustle on #Fitbit.
60 minutes of Zumba, 40 minutes walking. #fitbit
No workout, just walking. Got in 10,000 steps before my real workout. We'll have to see if I make it to the workout today. Cable being installed today, and two, maybe three of my shows coming on tonight. #fitbit #walkwhileIwatch #workweekhustle
It's that one week in the month when all I want to do is eat, sleep, and repeat. I still managed to get in 10,000 steps though.
It's been a busy two weeks since I last weighed in. I did a whole lot of salad and bread, and I walked as much as I could. I attended a 4 day conference and did not ever make it to the fitness center or the pool, but I lost 3.1 pounds. I'm not going to complain, I'm going to just keep it moving!
It's been 4 days since I weighed in, but I've been slipping on exercise and steps. The result = 1.5 pounds up. That's ok, not going to quit. I'm starting the 10 day Green Smoothie Cleanse today, and hoping to be under 200 before I go back to work on August 14th. #cantstopwontstop #fitbit #weightgainsucks
On the 10 day Green Smoothie Cleanse. Lost 3.5 pounds in 3 days. Final weigh in next week.
My new favorite dressing.
Day 8 of The Green Smoothie Cleanse and I decided to check my weight to see how much I lost in a week. Down 5 lbs. I'm hoping for 5 more by Saturday.
I'm hoping to be down 10 pounds in this cleanse. Today is a little disappointing because it's day 8 and I only see a 5 pound loss. I know I should be happy about 5 lbs in 7 days, but, Saturday is just a couple of days away, and I am not sure how this will all go down. So close to onederland, and that is where I hoped to be after this cleanse.
I'm on Day 10. I will weigh in and post my final results tomorrow.
Zumba on You Tube while at the hotel! #inittowinit #cantstopwontstop #fitbit #Zumba
Morning workout in the hotel room. No equipment, just You Tube!
Scale is finally moving!
Feeling my weight loss photos!
It's been so long since I've seen onederland!
I need you all to pray that I don't fall off. My marriage is ending and I've come to far to turn back now. I'm finally out of the 200's and I want to continue this new found version of healthy. Prayer warriors for peace and perseverance.
Putting the past behind me, and looking forward to this new journey. You're going to miss me!
Even through the pain, I managed to lose 0.9. That's a pound, right?
Starting the 10 day Green Smoothie Cleanse again today! I'm hoping to be at 185 in 10 days. We'll see.
Slower results than I was hoping for, but I'm going through a divorce so the stress level is high. Still not bad, 3.1 pounds in 5 days. Detoxing is working for me. Now, to find the strength to detox all the negativity in my life. I was admitted and released on Tuesday, as I'm not really depressed, I'm only brokenhearted. It's been a hard week!
I lost another 2.4 pounds even through the stress and fibroids.
11.9 pounds in one month! I'm back in it to win it.
I fell off a couple of days, but always got right back to it. 10 days of detoxing, now to transition. 5.7 pounds in 11 days, I'll take it!
It's been a long time!
Living single and making healthier food choices! Baked chicken and cauliflower on Tuesday and Wednesday, and Salmon Caesar Salad today.
I love the Green Smoothies 4 Life by JJ Smith! 2.7 pounds in four days!
Weight fluctuates so much. Only lost 0.2 this week.
Stuck in another plateau ☹
Not able to give up meat yet. Green Smoothies for Life! Chicken and vegetables with greens and black eyed peas.
Loving my new healthy lifestyle.
Slow month for weight loss, but at least I ended the month with less weight than I started. October will be the month that I bring fitness and water back into my life.
