All I can say is ouch. Everyday, I am going to push myself harder than the last, I cannot promise I will out do my day before, but I will always try. I woke up this morning, sore as could be, but I know the end reward is worth the aches and pains now.

Today I only had 7 x 16 ounces, but I am at least getting in my 10 x 8 ounces so that is a good thing.

Kettle Bells, My New Best Friend
In order for me to stay focused, I have to log what I do several different ways. It all has to be in front of my face, so I know to keep at it. This isn't a short term process, this is long term, this is something I will be doing for the rest of my life. However, in order for it to all sink in, and for me to keep at it right this moment, I have to log it all. I have a dry erase board in my room, on it we have my husband's name, my name, the exercises we are to do, and our goal number. Since we are just starting back into this again, our goals are rather low. My Daily Goals 50 Curls 100 Kettle Bell Swings 5 Miles on the Exercise Bike 50 Flys (I cannot do these until I get smaller weights, 10 pound weights are NOT going to work) 50 overhead presses So far I am doing pretty good at keeping up with my goals. Today I have had 8 x 16 ounce glasses of water and food wise I haven't had anything to bad. Below are the mini workouts that I have done today, I can say my body is killing … [Read more...]
Getting Fit One Day At A Time
I don't do much with the site, so I decided I would use it to log my weight loss. It has been a very hard path for me, I lose then gain then lose and gain more. I have been big most my life, my lowest at adulthood was 205, at that time we got pregnant, I quit my job to be a stay at home mom. I then went into depression and on came the weight. Yesterday, was day 1 of my journey, I will log my activity on the site, to keep me going. I have to have it out there or I tend to give up. I have also put the scale up, and I will not be looking at that while I work to slim down. The scale always depresses me more, which causes me to eat and gain. Yesterday I had 5 x 16 ounces of water. I did drink two cups of coffee as well. With it being the day after Thanksgiving for lunch and dinner we had left overs. I had stuffing and turkey, not the best choices, but as I get going I will learn to reduce the bad things I put in my body. I did three mini workouts yesterday. #1 @ 9:30am 20 … [Read more...]
