Friday weigh in, the weekend, and today

On Friday I was a little weary of doing a weigh in because I felt that I hadn't done very well last week. I gained 1/2 pound but that's okay. After work on Friday I went to the gym and jogged on the treadmill. Yay +1 point

Then I went to my sisters Halloween party and I ate too many sweets and didn't really feel well... -1 point

Sunday's don't count thankfully

Today I haven't been too good with my food but I am working on it. After work I took Sasha on a 1/2 hr walk and then went to a lift class at the gym. The class was way hard and I am happy I can do it. I hope one day I can actually do all of the reps on the weights that I'm supposed to!

So all in all I hope that this week will bring more time at the gym and less time on the couch and eating sweets.

Monday's Workout

On Saturday Hubby and I got a gym membership! We are now members of 24 Hour Fitness and today I went there for the first time. First I warmed up on the elliptical trainer and then I went to a lift class. Whoa I really am not in as good of shape as I thought. As I was driving home my arms felt like jello and I'm sure my whole body will hurt tomorrow. BUT I feel great that I am working out and I am going again tomorrow even if I just walk.

Friday Weigh-in

YAY! I lost 3 lbs this week! I know at least 1 1/2 lbs was probably water weight but that's okay. I still feel very happy. Now, only 17 more pounds to go! I really want to join a gym but they're all so expensive. I'm a little dissapointed. But then I think I know I really need to join one because I will really enjoy the classes and going there after work. When I say I'm going to go to the gym after I go home or work out at home it never happens. Probably because when I get home I remember all the things I need to get done and just do them until I'm not motivated anymore and/or it's too late and so I don't. Well not this time. I'm going to join a gym I jsut need to find the right one for me.

Tuesday News

Tuesday was okay. I didn't exercise but I did clean my whole house and vacuumed my whole house which, now that I moved, is a lot of carpet! I did eat bad foods though: ice cream and some chocolate at work. Today I am going to try harder to only eat good food and work out after work!

Working Out!

Today was a great day for working out. I left my purse in the car Danny took to work soo I didn't have my phone, car keys, or wallet. Lame! So, I walked over to the Morgans to just check and see if my purse was at their house but it wasn't. But Sasha and I enjoyed a nice 40 minute walk. Then I ran a few errands in one of their cars and dropped it off. But first I stopped at the house and changed into my jogging clothes. From the Morgans I jogged to Blockbuster and dropped off some movies and then jogged home. It was a hard jog and I'm glad I did it because it helped me get back in the groove. Jogging for me just feels so good!
So I'm going to do weekly weigh-in's on Friday mornings and will post my loss/gain based on how much I weighed last week.
I didn't do my food journal today but I will tomorrow!

Fallen off the band wagon

I have fallen off the band wagon and will not continue this. I really want to lose weight and get in shape. Not just for the cruise either. I want to be a healthy fit person without extra fat. I have a little more motivation now. So the plan is to lose 15-20 lbs by the cruise. SO, that means if I want to accomplish my goal I need to lose about a pound a week for 15 lbs and 1 1/2 lbs a week for 20. One of the things I have a hard time with is my eating habits so from now on I will be keeping a food journal. I really want to join a gym but I don't know which one to join. I think Danny wants to do 24 hr fitness because of his work schedule. I don't really care I just want to get in shape!
