My Workout Routine

This is my 2x daily workout routine. It takes about 1.5 hours to complete, and most of the routine can be done with weights (even ankle weights). This workout that I do is meant to improve flexibility, strengthen and improve the height of your jumps, and it makes you feel great! I listen to a set list of songs during this routine that are meant to amp me up and get me in a good mood! It includes songs that have been in my team's cheer music before, so when I hear it I always imagine myself on the springboard floor and about to practice a routine. I call it my 'Get psyched mix' (yes, I borrowed the name from How I Met Your Mother).

Today I thought I would chat about something other than what I have shown you already, so here it is and I will be back later!

Bye y'all!

Day 10...Bloating and Cramps

Ewwww...I hate periods! It makes being a girl suck! I get severe cramps and I get really bloated just overnight! Just between yesterday when I woke up and this morning, I find myself 5 pounds heavier. It is not as bad as usual yet though. I tend retain water and bloat at least 10 pounds for a period, and about 3 or 4 days after my period is has gone away.
However, when I am in the middle of a weight loss like this, even that bloating happening as it usually does upsets me.

I will let you guys know how things are tomorrow...until then smile, have fun and get ready for Easter!

My THINSPIRATION for today is the Phoenix Suns cheerleaders. They always seem to look so perfect and I want to be able to be as thin as those   girls one day.

Day 9

Weight: 228.8lbs

I seem to be losing a pound a day now instead of the over 2 pounds a day from before, but I knew that it would happen like that. For the first bit, your body loses quickly, and then it will slow down to a much more snail-like pace. If my body keeps up the one pound a day loss, technically I should be around 206-207lbs by the time the 30 day mark comes up.

I really hope that this keeps being as effective as it is. I have always been better at maintaining a certain weight through exercise and a healthy diet than losing weight, and I know that as soon as I drop down to that goal of 200lbs, I will be working my ass off everyday.

My thinspiration for today is the Minnesota Vikings Cheerleaders!

I have essentially planned that I will work my usual daily 9 hour shift + the usual 1-3hour overtime per day, go home, eat dinner, relax for an hour, and then head outside for a workout, weight training, flexibility training, and then my regular cheer training.

It will be a gruelling and long summer, but somehow I will make it through.

Geeze, I have family stuff going on for Easter...how am I supposed to skive off of eating while I am there? I suppose that I could just take salad and then work it off when I get home. Then again there exams before and the day after Easter, so I will be studying like a crazy person for sure! I guess that I will have to figure that out, but in the meantime, Good bye for now, and I will be back to blog later today, or tomorrow morning as usual!

I caved, I felt gross, I walked

I went on a really long walk today after I accidentally caved and ate a bagel. Bagels are essentially like compressed bread and contain way more calories than regular slices of fluffier breads. According to the internet, that bagel was around 200-275 calories because of the brand and size that it was!!! 275 calories!!!! egggghhhhhh! So I went on my walk of almost 10km (It was like a walk in the park...I have always loved walking!) and now I feel great. The bagel really made me stomach sick though, so I was not feeling good when I left my house to go for the walk...feel better now and I will never eat another bagel as long as I shall live!!!! Ahahaha bagels, how you plague me!!

Day 8

I just weighed in at 229.8lbs!
I have officially lost 18.2lbs in 8 days

The Baltimore Ravens are my thinspiration right now!

I know that to some people, aspiring to look like someone else is not necessarily a good thing, but I want o look thin, I want to be thin and wear my uniform proudly instead of feeling ashamed of my body and hiding in a corner.

I want to love my body and I want to be able to show my stomach in public and not be embarrassed. Is that so hard to understand? I have already done so well, and when I get down to 200lbs, I will go onto a raw food vegan diet to keep my body weight static and then start cheer training again. I do have a plan, and while it does take time and effort, I want to be a better, thinner me!
I need to not be fat anymore and that is why I am doing the 30 day cleansing fast instead of going straight from what I usually eat to a raw food vegan diet. I need to make sure that all of the chemicals that my body is laced with from eating unhealthy food have made their way out of my system first.

This Is Me!

Hi, my name is Aria (not really Aria Montgomery, I just don't want to use my  real last name) and this blog was created to talk about my great expedition to being thin! I am a cheerleader, though not your average small one. I am tall and yes, fat! I have always struggled with my weight and although to many people I may appear average and good sized, it just is not true to me. I need to trim down so that I can start up training for the 2014/2015 cheer season!

My number one goal is to feel good with my body, although I have never been able to do that so far in the 20 years that I have lived, nor do I think that I will ever be really and perfectly happy with myself.

I started my journey at 248lbs and barely squeezing into my size 14 jeans.

In the first 7 days of nothing except for water I have cut down to 232.2lbs!

Join me on my journey to making my cheerleader body and as I show you my inspirations for being thin...aka THINSPIRATIONS!
