Goal: 215

Well, announced to my work out partners that my goal this year is to get to 215lbs. 

I never do well at these sorts of things, so making it public will help. The other lady is about 10lbs heavier than me, so she is going to aim for 215 too. She has 35 to lose.

Also our coach has got to drop 18lbs for his powerlifting weight class. So we are all in.

Today I did great:

Better water intake.

Breakfast, lunch & dinner on track

Few too many "treats" but less than normal. 3 cookies and 3 mini chocolates

Workout done:

Bench press 3 sets x 5 reps 100lbs

Complex work of 3 sets x 8 reps

Hang cleans 50lbs

Overhead press 50lbs

Hanging knee raises

It was a tough one!!

Water, breakfast, protein & tracking snacks is where I'm going to really focus right now.

2014 in review!

Well, it's been an interesting year. I wouldn't classify it as particularly successful in the weight loss department, but I've been building in some areas and just ignoring others. 

December:

Year long:

Working out:

I've been keeping to my weekly weights, which is good. Getting stronger and my abs and arms are showing some real  muscle progress.

Work: 

This year brought some work changes. I accepted a new position at my current company. A promotion, new department and an amazing opportunity. I will start the transition to the new job in early feb. 

I wouldn't say my boss is very happy to see me go, but -long story short- if you are not going to fulfill your promises about this job then I will find another. 

School:

The other great opportunity that is being provided to me is that with this current position I will also be going back to school to finish my BBA. Yay!!!!!!! 

Forward progress:

Time to get off the "snack" horse and start tracking my food and water again. I want to make some better weight progress in the next year. 15-20lbs. 

Getting down to 220 in 2015...or maybe it should be 215 in 2015! Ha!! 

Either way, getting my planning back on track is going to be the key for this year, it's going to be a busy one!
