Tuesday

I only had time to do a few minutes on the treadmill this morning. I ran in place in the bathroom and I will get on the treadmill again later.   Weigh in tonight, I'm anxious. I tell everyone else don't stress about the numbers but I want to see big numbers go down also.:faint:

Monday WOOHOOO

I am happy to say I went to the gym Saturday and Sunday. I am not happy to say that I ate some serious caloric cookies Sunday but I will not do that again. MOVING FORWARD!!!   I also ran up and down the stairs a few times yesterday.

Hello

I went to the gym this morning but the big treadmill was not working so I got on the elipt, small treadmill for 5 min and the bike for 5 and did arm weights. I need more cardio this week if I am going to lose 4 pounds. It is going to be cold the weekend so I am not going to the park. I need more cardio!!

3 pounds

I lost 3 pounds WOOOOHOOOOO back to 373 thank God. I want to lose 4 pounds this week to get out of the 370's. I can do it with a lot of exercise. I can do this!!!! I have 14 pounds to lose 100 pounds. I can't wait. My goal is to do this my the end of next month. I can do this!!!   459-376-373-370-365-360-355-350 WOW it is so much closer.   I was so excited I went to 2 run and walk stores to look for some good shoes. I found them at Metro Run and Walk so I will go pick them up today.

Good Long Weekend

I kept it moving this weekend, I'm happy to say   Friday Gym Saturday Gm Sunday 3.2 walk (bonus cleaned the house) Monday 6.4 walk and a little more later (bonus washed the truck)   I want to incoporate some home exercise in all this movement. I want to start some sit ups, leg lifts, hand weights and Tae Boe Kicks.   Eating was ok but should have been better.

Gym

I LOVE IT!!!! I CAN'T BELIEVE IT, I HAVE BEEN GOING TO THE GYM EVERYDAY!!!!!:clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :faint: I'M GOING WALKING TOMORROW MORNING AND BACK TO THE GYM ALSO!!!! I really need to get an ipod so I can have the music I want.

Weighed and lost

I was 379 and now I am 376 WOOOHOOO I have to admit I was a bit disappointed. I just knew it was going to be down 8 or 9 pounds but I am ok. I am going in the right direction and have a new workout routine. I want to be out of the 370 by the end of this month and it is doable. I am going to stay positive and focused. :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2:   Thanks guys for all of your support.

Weigh In Day

Angelburch you are too funny but yes I am a morning person. I wish I could stay in the bed until 9am but I think it is just a waste of time. My body wants to get up so I am glad that I am motivated to do something now when I get up. I was getting up at 5:30 now I get up at 5am.   I was in the gym at 5:50 this morning and did 1 minute and a half on the eliptical. I increased my time by 1/2 minute LOL. I did 15 min on the treadmil and did 2 arm machines and 1 leg. When I got home yesterday

Thank you guys for all that love. I really needed that. I hope the weather is nice this weekend because you guys are inspiring me to go for 6 miles again Sat and Sunday.   I won't be around as much. I am moving to another office so if I don't respond immediately, just remember I am still cheering for you and I will respond as soon as I can.

Walked

I am so thrilled with myself that I walked 6.4 miles Saturday. The day was just perfect weather for walking. Not cold and not to warm, just right. That was 2 times around the infamous HP. I am so happy that I did it. I have been afraid to do it thinking that I couldn't. I am so pleased and it really helps to know that I can do it without dropping dead or stopping. I hold myself back mentally so much. I want to push through all these personal holds. I have to. I have goals. I have to lose weight

Awwwww Owwwww

I was all in a good mood. I just realized I gained a pound last night. Whatever, I'll just say mother nature did it.   God is Good....what!.....I said GOD IS GOOD.....Can I get an ALL THE TIME!!!   HAHAHAH I'm in a good mood right now. Knowing that you are not alone, knowing that you are not the only one going through some rough times is comforting. Tomorrow is not promised so I might as well be me and keep smile through it all. Because guess what....God Is Good All the Time..YES   Counti
