Steady as she goes

I am ten (10) days into my exercise program and I'm excited about it. It is not easy for me by any stretch of the imagination but I'm doing it. I have a very good friend in my corner as well as a cousin. We are all doing well on our journey.

Next week Wednesday I will be traveling but I am taking my good habits with me. I will watch what I eat and I will keep exercising. Where I'm going is an hour behind my time zone. I'm going to be getting up and working out at the same time as my group. I won't let them down nor will I let myself down. We are all in it together.

Weigh in time is another thing I'm looking forward to as the scale that I have here at home isn't moving and I'm sure my body is changing. If I haven't lost pounds I've lost inches. So, I will see you all again at weigh in time.

Oh, at the start of my program I weighed in at 192.8 I pray it drops!

Ciao for now

I'M BACK...LOL

Ok, three years ago I started on this journey to lose weight and it never happened. I have started and stopped and started and stopped, of course with no results. This time around things are different, my mindset is different. And if I should fall by the wayside for a day or two, I will NOT let it get me down, for I am in preparation for whats ahead.

On September 14th, 2013 I embarked on a 100 Days of Fitness Program. We work out every Mon, Wed, Fri and Sat. So far it is kicking my butt but I am enjoying it. We get a meal plan with is very helpful. Right now we are doing the 7 day kick start food plan which I am getting used to.

Weigh in for me was on September 12th with a weight of 192.8lbs. Yes, I am finally under 200lbs which I've been trying to do forever. My goal is to lose 30lbs at the end of the 100 days, but most of all to be healthy. I have great support from to of the best people in my life. We are all on our own journey to lose weight and I give each of them encouragement just as they give me. 

I am so ready for this change because I feel a shift coming and I am ready for this change.

Be well people.

GYM

Ok, so I have been in the gym Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Today...I am loving how I am feeling. I am changing how I eat and what I eat. I'm taking it one day and one meal at a time and I don't beat myself up when I slip up when I put unhealthy food in my mouth. I am ever grateful to my trainer for taking me on and the Nutritionist who is ever patient with me and encouraging.

A lot of things are becoming clear to me and I must continue to take care of self...physically, spiritually, mentally and emotionally. Life is too short not to live it with vigor.

~Peace N Love~

Trainer

Today was my first day at the gym with a trainer. I'm feeling pretty good after. He worked my lower body. Tomorrow we go out on the road at 0500hrs for a bike ride.

I may have started and stopped this journey to weight loss but I have not given up. I am Blessed! Thank you Kenton.
