Sorry it's been a while!

So I have gotten a little preoccupied with "Extreme Coupon-ing" and I haven't had time to write on here but Fear not! I am still alive and kicking and trying to loose this weight! I went on vacation with the hubs and kiddos and I am happy to report that I DID NOT gain any weight!!! Yeah Me~! However, I didn't loose any either!! UGH! But we did awesome! We all shared meals instead of each of us getting a big plate of something! It also helped us save some mula!! Lol! It really worked out for us!
Randy has really been trying to loose weight since his last apt at the Dr's office. He is fine, just needs to work on loosing a little weight! But hey, don't we all!?! So he has been doing the P90X like everyday! For about a week now and I have to say I see a big difference in him. Not only in his eight but in his moods. He maybe tired more but he just seems happier. I guess what they say is true about the endorphins and being happier when you work out! But he is doing great and I am so happy for him! I try to get out in the garage with him but I just can not keep up with him. He is on "body builder" mode and I am on "little old lady who runs out of breath just walking into the garage" mode! Don't laugh but it is true. I know, the more I do it, the better I'll get. But man that P90X ain't no joke! Oh well I like the yoga and stretching parts!! Haha! I am good at that! I did one of the biometric (I think that is what is called) and it killed me and my ankles!He was crazy with all the jumping around! I couldnt walk for like 2 days!!
But I have to get back on my schedule and eating! I'm going to try and make my meals plans for each day a week in advanced and plan out dinners also! This will also help me with my coupons and shopping!
I am also going to start tracking the calories I take in. That was really good for me! I was surprised how much it made you think about what you were going to eat! Not eating so much or I have to eat this instead of that type thing! I know it is a little time consuming but I liked it. So I'm gonna do that. I also moved all the exercise equipment and all my dvds into the garage so I have more room and can do it without Pepper trying to jump on the treadmill with me!
Well how is everyone else doing ??

I hope everyone had a great and Blessed Easter!

Lots of Love!

Quick Tip

Saw this on "Cook yourself thin" today.

Take your ideal weight and times it by 10
and that is the amount of calories you should be eating each day!
So my ideal weight is 150 times that by 10
and I get 1500 caloric intake each day!

Hope this helps! I am pleasantly surprised that I can eat that many calories a day!
I thought it was more like 1200 or so. So I think I can do this!

Just Dance!

OK so don't laugh but I think I have found the best workout! 

We bought the kids the Just Dance game for the Wii, and it is great! 

It has great music and it really is a workout! 

I have been doing it for the past 3 days and I have been sore for the past 3 days! 

I sweat and have fun at the same time. It really is a lot of fun! 

Megan and Randy get so competitive and we really get into it just to beat each others score! 

On the menu they have a section called just sweat. You can chose easy, medium or intense. 

The easy is one song a day, the medium is 3 songs a day and the intense is 6 songs a day. 

Man, let me tell you.....it works! Especially your upper body! WOW! 

So I am going to try an do this along with my Slim in 6 and my Biggest Loser workouts. 

I also want to start back up on the treadmill or try to get outside and run! 

It was such a pretty day today! I haven't weighed myself  this weekend. 

But I better have lost something with all this dancing! HAHA! 

Well, I hope you gals are doing OK!
