80 Day WLC – Days 2-5

Okay, I gotta play catch-up here since I got started on this thing two days late, and also because I was so exhausted last night (which will happen when you’ve had to work a full day on three hours sleep!) that I didn’t write an entry.  So, let’s get started, shall we?

Day 2:  Describe your dream/goal body

Believe it or not, I don’t want to be "skinny."  I like having curves, boobs, hips, a booty….I like looking and feeling like a woman.  My goal body is to be in a size 10/12, to have a much flatter tummy (because unfortunately, when I gain weight it all goes straight to my belly, which is very unhealthy).  I want my upper arms to be thinner and slightly muscular (no bodybuilder muscles, please!).  I’ve never had a problem with big legs, butt or hips, so I’m fine with the way they look now.  I hope my boobs won’t get too much smaller as I lose weight because I like the size they are now….but unfortunately, they’ll probabaly get a little smaller because that happens when I lose weight too.  Oh, and I definitely look forward to my face looking thinner…..goodbye double chin! LOL!

Day 3:  Is your ultimate goal weight in an unhealthy range of BMI?

I used the calculator provided in this question, and the answer is no.  My goal weight is 140, which would put my BMI at 24.0, which is in the healthy range.  Like I said before…..all I want out of this is TO BE HEALTHY!!  Goodbye pills, hello more energy!

Day 4:  Have a vegan day

Well, I’ll have to try this tomorrow.  I’ll let you all know how it goes!  I’m actually looking forward to trying it, to be honest!

Day 5:  What is your favorite healthy food?

My favorite healthy meal is this salad:  mixed greens, grilled chicken breast, pecans, mandarin oranges, red grapes, a sprinkling of feta cheese, with raspberry vinaigrette dressing…..SOOOO GOOD!!!!!

So there we have it….all caught up, except for having the vegan day, which I am going to do tomorrow.  Should be interesting, and I’ll have to keep a close eye on my blood sugar to make sure it doesn’t get too low.  I’ll let you all know how it goes!

In other news, I’m home from work sick today….thank you, husband.  Headache, sore throat, nausea….all the fun stuff.  But something unexpected happened….I got a phone call from AAA about a job!  Interesting……..and totally unexpected.  I called the girl back and left a message, so we’ll see what happens.  The job I’m at right now, I’m considered a full time temp because the job ends at the end of this year, so maybe God wants me out of there sooner so I can get established somewhere that has benefits and is long-term.  Right now I get no benefits at all….if I take time off, I don’t get paid for it.  When the office closed for 1 1/2 weeks for the holidays, I didn’t get paid for any of it.  It was nice having the time off, but sucked big time that I had to take it all unpaid.  So yeah, we’ll see what happens.

I hope you’re all having a wonderful day….and feeling better than me…lol.  Much love…xoxo
