Fell off the PINK wagon

First off Merry Christmas everyone. I hope your Christmas was everything you hoped for. So as you can see my title....I have fell off the PINK Method diet. It got to be much and with the little weight loss for all the work....I gave up. I am going to start it up again (one more go around) starting on the 1st. I need to loose the weight for my self and of course I need to look hot for my sister inlays wedding in June.

I totally should be sleeping right now but I am watching the Wedding Planner on Oxygen channel. I am such a hopeless romantic. I wish my husband was too. I know that real life is not like the movies but a girl could only dream. I have been itching to get out of town but we can't afford it. Somewhere tropical would be amazing or even a quite cabin in the woods would be too. My sweet husband and I have been married for 9 plus years and never got to take a honeymoon. sad huh? plus side though....we have a house, two amazing kids, food on the table, and jobs. So I shouldn't complain.

Day 4 of P.I.N.K. Method

YUCK!! I am drinking the Pink drink 3 and either I made it wrong or something but yuck yuck yuck. My aunt on the other hand thinks its amazing. Bleck! I am having a hard time drinking it and honestly would rather not. I honestly will probably give up on drinking it soon too.

LUNCH: Well it's kind of boring. It's egg salad (which I am not a fan of) on a cucumber with lots of veggies. Yipee!! I'll be starving again soon. Wish I could go get a footlong chicken bacon ranch on flatbread from Subway!! I heart Subway!!!

Start of Day3 of the PINK method

Here is the lunch for Day 3 plus my unlimited veggies for snack.  Yes I know it doesn't look that delicious but I am looking forward to having the soup again (for the second day in a row). I steard away from the shrimp salad because I didn't want to eat them. I honestly dislike all seafood but I have eaten chicken for the last 2 days for lunch and dinner. I know I needed to change it up a bit. Also, seafood is suppose to be really good for you (I hear) so I will chock these shrimp down. I am looking forward to my asparugas. LOVE IT! Mentally-I am very frustrated. I have not lost a single pound. My Aunt on the other hand is down 2 pounds. Way to rock it Aunt Peggy!! I think "why am I starving my self like this for no reason".I do have to admit that I do feel like I have more energy. We will see in few days where I am at.

Day 2 of P.I.N.K. Method

I am on Day 2. The smoothie was a lot better this morning. I put in a little less whey protein and 12 strawberries. Yes 12. It made it not so gritty. I have a little bit left for this afternoon. I did that because I want to be able to drink it when I start to crave something sweet (even though it's not sweet at all). No picutre of lunch. It was a 4 oz chicken breast and cauliflower/carrot soup. It sound disgusting. To my surprise....it wasn't. I LOVE IT!! I can't wait to eat it again. Yum yum and yum!

So last night my Aunt came over and we had our dinners together (with my boys) and then weighed our selves and took "before" pictures. Holly crap batman....I am huge. Looking at the picutres of me, I don't see my self as bad as the pictures are.  I didn't realize that I have gained weight and I have back boobs. The muffin top that I have, has been in the over for way to long and has been over cooked.  Well, I am hoping to stay with this. I know I can. I am going to be sexy with some hard work and lifestyle changes. LOVE IT!!

Day 1 of starting the Pink Method weight loss program


I have started my life style change effective today. I am excited about the program and I am hoping to stay super pumped about it while I do it.  I am going to try to blog about the it. It's called the Pink Method. You can find out more about the program at http://www.pinkmethod.com/ if your interested. My aunt and I are going this challenge together and heck if you want to join us...GREAT!! They send you the whole packet and the system, I didn't think was that expensive. You purchase your own food an prepare it your self so non of that nasty prepare meals and if you think about it, you know exactly what your cooking. I am not a "organic" freak but I do stay away from some preservatives.  This will help me learn new eating habits and also change my taste buds from cheeseburgers, YUMMY french fries, pizza, ice cream, and pretty much anything that is not good for me. I LOVE bad food. I am hoping to loose 40 lbs by June. Very realistic if I stick with it.  Its not good feeling tired all the time and I have surpassed that a long time ago. I am not doing this for anyone else (well maybe a little for my kids) but my self.

For breakfast I have a Pink Drink 1. Honestly, it's okay. I am definitely not going to tell you that it's so delicious because I would be lying to you but what can you expect when there is no sugar in it. I am typing this and drinking it down (slowly). I am very excited for lunch though. I have this amazing HUGE salad with chicken. YUM YUM YUM!! Not excited form the stewed tomatoes though.  Dinner-well it's way to early to think about that one.

Wish me LUCK!! I'll let you know how it goes.


Update....okay I have been snacking on my lunch since about noon today. My salad is almost gone but it still has a bit left. I haven't even attempted to eat my stewed tomatoes (that I didn't picture) yet. The breakfast shake was filling. I am SOOOO craving is twizlers though. Oh how I love Twizzlers. Any kind, the pull apart ones, the small cut up ones, the oringals, any. Can you tell I am a junk food junky? I didn't get overweight for no reason.  Talked to my Aunt and she is doing good. No cravings yet but she has more will power than I do. I'm closing my eyes right now and inserting a cucumber into my mouth and imaging it is a Twizzler. YUM!! It tastes nothing like it....who am I kidding.

Let me give you a little background.....

Hi follow bloggers. My name is Katie and I am 30 years old. I have been married for 9 almost 10 years and have two very spunky boys. Spencer is the oldest. He will be 9 in January and Blake just turned 15 at the end of August.  Yes, I know what your thinking...."Man that's a big age gap". Yes it is. My husband (Adam) and I had Spencer and enjoyed every minute of it. When Spencer was 7 years old I started thinking about the "what ifs" and I didn't want Spencer to be alone if and when something happens to my huband and I. I was also very nervous by this time, would I be able to give enough love to both children.  We decided to give it a go. I told my husband 3 months, if we were not able to get pregnant within 3 months then it just wasn't ment to be. Wham bam....I was pregnant the week after removing my IUD.  We were blessed with our two handsome boys who look very different from eachother since they have the same exact parents. I call them my ying and yang.

The purpose of my blogging is going to be sharing with you my life of two very different children, telling you about ideas, projects, likes and dislikes, and honestly to keep me accountable for life.  That might sound very boring to you but hopefully not to much! Hope you enjoy.
