Susie and Joseph's 30 day challenge

Hey everyone!

So basically this time last year Joseph and I started really focusing on fitness. We fell off the wagon and have kind of been on and off since. This summer i gained back the weight I had lost (from 125 to 115.7 last September-halloween). I came back to the city for school weighing in at 128! some days more! ouch! As of this morning I am at 124.8 and my goal is to get down to 115 by Halloween and to continue with living a Healthy and Fit lifestyle. This month will be extreme, I will be counting calories and recording all my workouts in an effort to drop the 10lbs in one month.

Things to know about my body type- my bra size is 34D (or 32DD). genetics i guess. They don’t seem to go away, even at my lowest weight. I carry a lot of muscle in my thighs, so even at their smallest, they are muscular. I am not a fan of them, but they are strong and I have to learn to love them. So as much as I would love to be a 100lb girl, I don’t know how realistic that is. Ultimately my goal is anywhere from 108-110. But for now 115 is my end of October goal :)

So here it is:

Height: 4’11” (I’ll take my measurements soon and post them!)

Oct. 2- 124.8lbs

Breakfast: Green tea (0) + Naked Juice Green Machine (270)

Snack: Tuna in water (100) w/Jalapenos, mustard, and tapatio (~5)

Follow me on My Fitness Pal (MFP) username: suzmendoza I made my diary public to friends, so send me a request if you want to track my eating! :)

So far today I have done about 50 minutes of power walking (my campus is a little more than a mile away from my house, I walked to and from) and I will be hitting the gym at around 4pm.

Let’s do this! :)

Day 2 of the challenge and I feel great.

Yesterday I did about 4 miles of running/jogging.  You can follow me on myfitnesspal username is josephgood .  My current weigh in is at 185.8.  

Yesterday started off rough, i had a slice of the Cheesecake Factory’s Pina Colada Cheesecake at 1050 calories per slice, but after my cardio and eating healthy the rest of the day, I ended at +367 calories which is good, I stayed in my goal.

Today started off right, I had a bowl of rice crispies (im obsessed with them all of a sudden) obviously without sugar and I had 1cup and 1cup of fat free milk .  That was a combined total of 194 calories for breakfast.

I went for a 15 min jog, approximately 1.5 miles, and that burned 233 calories.

I am currently eating Cambell’s 100% natural mexican-style chicken tortilla, which is my favorite soup…I usually add some cholula hot sauce to it for spicier flavor.
