Coming Clean

Yes, I did fall off the wagon - I will try to now clime back on it. I have a lot of excuses and I can pick any one do defend myself, but the end word is - I haven't worked out in over two weeks. I half the time don't drink enough. I also haven't rode a bicycle or taken my supplementation.

I think, my success and going under 200 made me so happy, I decided I am done. Look at me - I do not need anything. I do move a lot after work - practically every day I get the kids and we go to the pool and a spray park. (The last couple summers were not all that great, so I feel that I have to use every hour of hot summer to enjoy it). Also my daughter, who is going through potty training right now, keeps insisting that she has to go potty every five minutes after she is in bed. Sometimes I think she is doing it on purpose, but couple days ago I brought her home late and she was passing out. My husband put her in bed and she was happy. 2 hours later I found her sleeping on the carpet next to the potty. Very adorable and weird at the same time. But enough excuses already - I have to get back on my weight loss pony, so here it comes

1. Continue writing, because otherwise, it is just not working
2. Supplementation
3. Workout

For obvious reasons I am overdue for my measurements, so this should be done this week

I love me!

Well, I don't get to say that enough. But for just a minute I'd like to say that I love me. The scales is slowly turning into the loosing mode. My last measurement made me say, Yey! Yesterday I got on the scales again and it said -1.3 lb. That puts me into under 200 zone and it feels great. I haven't been under 200 since my 8th month of pregnancy with my number 1 and that is at least 2.5 years, so I'm loving it.

Last two weekends I did get on the bike and rode it for 30 minutes or so, so, I guess, I did my next step and now just have to continue a great job. Yey me!

I am loving WII Active More workouts and it is so much cooler than the first one. The warm up is a combination of few exercises (in the first one it was mostly running and I hate running). As a cool off instead of running it is stretching and recovery. I overall like it a lot.

I recently came to the realization that I can actually run without hating myself. I might not like it much, but now I can actually run instead of doing this fast duck walk thinking I am going to start running...yes, I will...I need to stop and catch my breath...I hate myself...

So I loved my results and yesterday I actually put on a swimsuit instead of workout pants. It is a two piece that covers more than one piece, but it's a start. I can see that my legs are overall toned. I still have a long way to go, but my hips are not sad looking fat blobs and I proud of them.
