So it’s time for the nice monthly weigh in. Argh…..I’m not a single pound lighter and its very frustrating. I thought I was doing good. My clothes are fitter a little better. I have been really good about portion size. Except for yesterday. But it was mom’s b-day lunch and it was to Japanese steak house. We all left very, very full!
What I need to understand is that its not always about the number. I am stronger based on the weights I can do today vs last month. So I am definitely building muscle. I’m getting tone and the weight loss and inches will come. Last time I did a big weight loss campaign, the weight wasn’t fast to come off then, so I need to just stay focused. *sigh* Easier said than done.
The other day, Brian and I made new, more attainable goals. 20lbs each by cruise time in Feb. We have a whopping 6 months!!!
So, my hubby is still feeling a little sore. He rolled out of bed his morning whining and looking all sad. For those of you with your minds in the gutter….please pick up back out!
He is sore because he came to the gym with me on Sunday! He did a full work out, Kimmie style. Cardio….weight training….and a little more cardio to wrap up the day! I dug up some old track sheets from Fall 2007 when Brian and I first started working out together. He is definitely a lot weaker than he was back then. I think that got to him so he may have pushed himself a little harder.
And thus is still sore on Wed from a Sunday workout. Let’s see if he will still go this weekend?!?!?!?!?!
After all, he claims he is down 5 lbs. from that workout. hmmmm….
So I’m a bit late on this post but better later than never. A month has past and B and I are off to a rough start. I have fortunately made it to the gym more frequently than him but not as often as I’d hoped.
There was a flaw in my plan. I was hoping to work out on Tues( my telecommute day) and Sat/Sun. That would yeild my 3 days a week. I failed to account for
1) Having a life
2) leaving town on weekends
3) just plain laziness.
So here we are a month after re-joining our gym and I have only lost 3 lbs of my 50 lb goal. *sigh* Its slow but its going. I can’t speak for B. I’m not sure where he is at. Hopefully this second month will be much better! I do feel a bit more motivated. That’s a plus.
Brian and I re-activated our gym accounts yesterday. We got a pretty good price. 25/month each with no enrollment or administrative fees. We did it online and then picked up the membership cards after work. We didn’t work out though. We didn’t have the proper attire.
It’s frutrating that they already made Brian annoyed. 2 hours after his registration the training consultants called and were quite RUDE!
I was waiting for the call myself. I was ready! But nothing. I get nothing. argh…. I made it clear to the front desk upon picking up our cards that I DID NOT want any further solicitation from the trainers. When I need them, I know where they are. Its kinda hard to miss.
Back to more important things. Today will mark my first work out in a while. I’m so excited! I have 50 lbs to drop to be back to where I was when I moved to Atlanta. Let the games begin.
