Workout Complete

Had a great workout and feel energized! I did a Fatburner workout which was walking up and downhill! Looking forward to my next workout on Wednesday!

Total Womans Gym & Spa

I did it!  I joined a gym.  

I worked out for an hour on Saturday on the treadmill and walked 3 miles.  I am going again today after work and again Wednesday after work.  I also plan on hiring a fitness trainer for at least 4 sessions (I would love to do more but it's expensive) to teach me how to properly use the machines that will best suit me to tone my belly and arms (my bingo wings as my son likes to call them) and other parts that need toning.  I am happy and excited for this new part of my healthier me.

I also have a $25 certificate for the spa and plan and splurging for a total body massage.

I'm getting off my butt and going for it

Well starting tomorrow I will belong to Total Woman & Spa.  I will start with Monday's, Wednesday's and Saturday's and eventually work my way up to 5 days a week and then eventually 7 days?  we shall see where this new journey in my life change takes me.

Wish me luck!

PS.    So for some unknown reason my refrigerator froze everything SOLID, including my eggs, and is now defrosting everything.  So I don't lose all my groceries, I decided I am going to take my eggs and put them in a shaker and scramble all of them.  I am going to cook the ground spicy turkey sausage...chop the green onions and spinach and then I will place all of these ingredients in muffin tins and bake and Freeze to make individual omelets than I can heat on the go. Healthy breakfasts.

Down...Down....Down

So after 2 weeks with only a 1 pound weight loss, I weighed myself on Sunday Morning and was 226 lbs.  I lost 8 pounds in 5 days...A total of 67 lbs and 90 more to go.  So how 8 lbs this last week with no weight loss the last 2?  I think I was consuming too many calories.  This last week I ate a lot of salads. 

Last night I treated myself to my first burger since surgery.   We had In-N-Out burger for dinner.  Don't worry I ate mine Protein Style so no Bun!  It was so yummy 

Walking Works

So after not losing any weight last week, I walked to and from work yesterday.  Although I was quite sore last night, I woke up this morning feeling great.  Of course I laid around the house this morning and didn't just get ready so, I was running late and not able to walk to work today.  By walking yesterday, I lost 1 pound. This just proves to me that me being lazy and not getting my walk in, is what is causing me to not lose the maximum weight that I should be.  Who knew the doctor was right?  So, I will definitely be walking to work tomorrow and starting next week I will walk to work at least 3 days a week, plus my walk that Julie and I do at lunch.

Lost in a Time Warp

So another week without any weight loss.  I know I have at least lost inches, but no weight loss to show for it.  Of course I didn't walk as much the last week as I usually do and I drank a bottle of wine Friday.  I don't really think I cheated other than the wine, but I keep saying exercise is the key to my success.  I can eat healthy all I want and drop a pound here and there, but when I exercise I usually lose 3-5 pounds per week and that is what I need to do.

This week is starting off on a better note. I WALKED TO WORK TODAY! Yep I really did it. I am so proud of myself for this, because usually I would just not do it.  Now to get myself to do this at least 3 days a week!

Inches Only

So not happy with my weight loss for the week, I only lost ½ a pound.  I think I lost inches though, because my tummy and waist seem smaller to me and my new pants are a little loose. 

The unpacking of my new home is almost complete so, it is time to get off my butt and do some serious exercising.
