I was doing sooo good...

So, I worked out all last week and I absolutely love it!!! I find that I love the eliptical at 9 am while watching "The Price is Right" with closed captioning. I think the only way I can tolerate that show is in closed captioning! I found myself a few times on there like saying out loud....no that's too low!
I'm totally lame! But, hey...it's serves it's purpose! I get my exercise and do some "fantasy" shopping!

Anyhow, I found my groove and really enjoy the routine and the way I feel. I went Monday this week and have been home bound since due to Raven's pink eye. If we are all well and clear of the gunk next week, I can't wait to get back!

Thanks for your support. It means so much to me!

So far, so sore...

Hey all, doing really good this week. I DO want Candace to be my workout buddy, but finances are a little tight on both ends, so we are going to put off going together for a little bit. I, however, am doing fabulous.

I did the eliptical, or rather, it did me in! It felt great, though. I decided that I was having the "blues" a little more than necessary. I HAD to get out and get exercising! I feel SO much better, it's really amazing. I'm getting so much more done, too!

I've set a goal to workout 3 days a week. I have been successful this week. I really like having a schedule, not to mention an hour to myself! Thanks for your support ladies.

Now, if I could just get my appetite under control! lol

I'm Excited!

I've been working out at the local Rec. Center and have some goals! I have a work out buddy (Candace) and we plan to go together. I realized I really need that. I also know that if I make an appointment for Tessa to go to the Nursery there, I also feel SUPER accountable to make our reservations.

Mind tricks, I know...but it's working. It's just part of the routine. Baby steps, right?

A New Day, A New Goal

So, I'm taking a new stab at this! I've nursed my knee pretty good (not totally) but am tired of the mall. So, I got a membership (for the month) to the local rec. center here. I'm pretty excited to have some time to myself. I got Tessa a punch card for the nursery there, so I'm FREE! Starting bright and early tomorrow morning.

Thanks for all your encouragement and patience!!! Love to all.

Little Update..

Ok, so I know it's been a while. I've been walking a few times a week at the mall. I have a tender knee right now...not sure what I did. So, until it's feeling a bit better I'm gonna take it easy. The mall and I are really getting along great...all that window shopping! Tessa's a good motivation, too...she always asks if we are going to go.

I'm Back!

I'm back and doing well. I haven't started my exercising yet...but I'm on it soon! I figured if I wanna change the outside I really need to work on the inside, too. I've started my new year with some new recipes. If any of you have any great "figure friendly" recipes, I would really love to try 'em. I am trying to incorporate more fish in my diet. 'Nuff said.

I'm back and ready to go. New entries to come....

Snow Shoveling Counts, Right?

I just wanted to note that I got out and shoveled snow twice yesterday. I'm taking every little bit I can get. As I stated before, I won't be doing much walking during the holidays. As such, not much to blog about on here. I decided I'd make every effort to get out and shovel the stuff as possible. It's hard work (even for the powdery stuff) and it stinks to do it b/c I don't enjoy it...but somebody's gotta do it. Merry Christmas Everybody!
