Ashley. Winnipeg. 22. 5'4". I am starting this tumblr weighing in at 260 pounds. I want to weigh 199 pounds (or preferably less) come June of 2013 and this is how I'm gonna do it.

I will be weighing myself every second Wednesday.

Why June of 2013?
I'm gonna be a bridesmaid in my bff's wedding. My first "bridesmaid experience" was horrible because of my weight & I am NOT gonna go through that again.

I will also be using this blog to help change myself completely. Go to the "READ MORE" page for more info.

HBMI: 42.5 (May 9, 2012)

Just went for a 25 minutes bike ride

w. my sister.

Not gonna lie. 25 minutes killed me. & when I got home and walked up the 2 steps my legs felt like jello.

But if I do this everyday obviously its gonna get a whole lot of a hell easier for me.

I dont know how many calories I burned but I dont think it was enough because I had a lg Skor Blizzard today. Not good. Not good at all.

Yeah, so I think now its time for some Dance Central to burn off some more of that blizzard.

Its so pretty. & so baby blue.

15 THINGS YOU SHOULD GIVE UP TO BE HAPPY
Here is a list of 15 things which, if you give up on them, will make your life a lot easier and much, much happier. We hold on to so many things that cause us a great deal of pain, stress and suffering – and instead of letting them all go, instead of allowing ourselves to be stress free and happy – we cling on to them. Not anymore. Starting today we will give up on all those things that no longer serve us, and we will embrace change. Ready? Here we go:
1. GIVE UP YOUR NEED TO ALWAYS BE RIGHT
2. GIVE UP YOUR NEED FOR CONTROL
3. GIVE UP ON BLAME
4. GIVE UP YOUR SELF-DEFEATING SELF-TALK
5. GIVE UP YOUR LIMITING BELIEFS
6. GIVE UP COMPLAINING
7. GIVE UP THE LUXURY OF CRITICISM
8. GIVE UP YOUR NEED TO IMPRESS OTHERS
9. GIVE UP YOUR RESISTANCE TO CHANGE
10. GIVE UP LABELS
11. GIVE UP ON YOUR FEARS
12. GIVE UP YOUR EXCUSES
13. GIVE UP THE PAST

Just came back from two 10 minute walks.

Once with Lucky (dog) & Mr.Bella (cat). I have never taken Bella before Im surprised he actually followed us. It was pretty funny seeing him running through the field trying to keep up with Lucky.

Then I went again with my other cat Jinx. She’s been on walks before with me and my dogs but never by herself.

I think I’ll start bring Jinxy on more walks because she listens better than any of my other animals.

I have to admit though I did get kinda embarrassed when I walked past these 2 teenage boys while walking my dog and cat. I got a weird look lol.

Hm, I think you shoukd rethink that. Maybe you can sign for 3 months, not 2 years or something? Going to the gym is a motivation booster. how much would it cost a month? would you save that money, to be honest?

For 3 months that $210.00 which isn’t all that bad I guess but its the getting there and back that I don’t really like. Its not all that far w. the car (when I have it; which is only a couple times a week) but walking it would take forever and I am not walking along side a highway :s Busing too is out of the question because that’s 2 buses at $2.45x2 there and back and by time I get home from work, change wait for both buses it really wouldn’t be worth wild. When I did sign up to the gym I did just a one month membership which was a “introduction membership” that only cost me $30.00 so thats why I went. I think I’ll give myself a month for my at home workouts to see where I go with those (when I eventually get started on those, tonight more than likely) and if it doesn’t work out then I’ll look back into joining the gym. I did like going to the gym. Their classes (step, zumba etc.) were the best.

That’s a good idea to work out at home, especially if you lost more at home than at the gym. You’ll be more comfortabe too! sometimes i work out in my panties cuz i’m at home lol and if you need a motivation boost, i have a tag link on my tumblr?

See and that’s just it. I do feel way more comfortable at home (i dance like a complete idiot almost every night in my underwear too, so youre not alone on that one lol) And when I would go to the gym I would go for an hour which would be the class that I would have taken which is more than enough for me. But when I was working out at home before I had signed up for the gym I found that I was going for longer especially when I would do a workout in my room and then doing a hour + of dance central.
