It's been awhile/ Fitness plans

Life sucks. Moving on, I have been so wrapped up in crap lately that I haven't gotten much accomplished lately. I feel as if I'm losing my freaking mind, but once again I am trying to write in my blog daily. The thought occurred to me that I should use this space for more than complaining about the bad days that I choose to write about. If I really want to make my book interesting I should chronicle more of my life to give me inspiration later. I really believe that my frustrations now are the key to developing a tormented, but lovable protagonist.

I've been through a lot,but I will only give a small recap because my memory is almost like that of a gold fish. The fire thing is almost completely resolved, I'm not moving yet, I lost a good friend of 10 years because I slept with his wife, my husband is still an asshole, and I'm looking for work again.

So back to the using my blog for more. I am thinking I should also track my weight loss progress and post some meals I cook. I want to lose 42.6 pounds, but I only need to lose 14.6. Eating all that take out since I couldn't cook really caught up to me, and my lack of activity did not help.

So here are my starting stats:

Height: 5'4
Weight: 157.6
Body Fat: 28.89%

I want them to be...
Height: 5'7 [I stopped growing 15years ago, lol. A girl can dream]
Weight: 115
Body Fat: 15%

The current plan is to do P90X Lean, 20 min of cardio, and toss in some random push-ups throughout the day. I will also be using "It Works" Wraps. I don't know if they really work, but you do see instant results and that encouragement is worth the price for me. This will be my first time using the wraps while dieting and exercising so this should be interesting. As far as supplements go I will be finishing a leftover bottle of Oxyelite Pro [OEP is supposed to be really good, but my body doesn't respond to it well. It is worth a try to see if it works for you] and Lipozene [Lipozene is very overpriced fiber. I got it really cheap so I figured I would try it. Personally I wouldn't recommend it]. I will also take a multivitamin, CLA [conjugated linoleic acid] ,fish oil, Vitamin C, and calcium.

This week's targets are to lose 1.5 pounds, eat at least 90g of protein daily, and drink at least 80oz of fluid daily. I should be working out 6.5 days a week and eating an average 1700 calories daily.
