Holiday Weight

Hello you guys!! I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas! So I have gained 3 pounds... I know why so I'm not tripping. All those good cakes and pies I couldn't resist. lol! Now on to today's workout. I went for a nice jog on the treadmill today. 2.39 miles completed in 30 minutes. I could have kept going but some people that didn't believe in wearing deodorant arrived and funked up the place. I felt really good after my jog. I got a new toy too! I went to Walmart and purchased a Pro-Form TX-200 Heart Rate Monitor Watch. My heart rate was accurate but it didn't calculate my speed like I thought it would. I am going to try it again, and if it doesn't work I will be returning it. I have my eye on a Garmin Forerunner anyway. The price tag is way more than the Pro-Form but as I get serious about this working out stuff, I want to have serious accessories too!

Well that's my spill about this thing call weight loss!

Happy New Year to you and your family!

It's Going Down

YAY!!! Ok so I know I have to get better at updating this blog but hey I'm busy! Anyway, last time I posted, I was pushing the 180 mark. But not anymore! I am going to keep this up. I feel better and my confidence is going up! I have been exercising at least 3 times a week. I do a mix of P90X and maybe morning run on the weekend. The plan is to increase my workouts during the week. More workouts + more calories burned = more weight loss! Until next time!

Peace & Love

P90X Day 1

So I decided to do the Cardio X for my day 1 of P90X. I originally started with the Plyometrics but 30 minutes in, I started feeling sick. I had that feeling when I first did the workout. So not to be defeated, I popped in the Cardio X. This has a mixture of Yoga X, Plyometrics, and some core workouts. I'm in love! Plyometrics is a lot of jumping and I get motion sickness when I do that workout. So I think I am going to swap the Plyometrics for the Cardio X until I get my endurance back up. That will be the only workout I will be substituting. I know I am not going in order either but I wanted that cardio workout today! I think I am going to start back running again too. I really like to run outside, but since it is getting dark when I leave work that won't be happening. I guess I'll have to get back on the treadmill. Sigh..... Oh well, time to shower and get myself ready for work in the morning! Tomorrow is a new day!

Be Blessed!

Welcome to My World

Hello you guys! Here I am on this weight loss journey again. This time I am determined to do it right and maintain my weight. I am what you call an emotional eater. I eat when I'm bored, sad, stressed (I eat way more at this level), and depressed. Lately I have been more stressed, sad, and depressed so of course that is trouble for me. My daily routine was work, home, sleep, eat, sleep, then do it all again the next day. I know what my triggers are and I have to manage them better. So I am starting this weight loss journey again! I want to healthy and happy. No, I am not trying to get to a size 2 but I want t be a size I feel great in! I am willing to work hard and stay motivated. I would LOVE to have others join me on this journey. Ok now you know a little bit about me. I will keep you guys posted on my progress!

Be Blessed
