Ok, So I have been not very good lately. I have been watching the diet and doing not so horrible on that. But, I know for me that if I want to see big losses I have to exercise as well as eat right. I have just not been doing that lately. So, I figure that I get a big shame on me! My friend Chris reminded me that while it’s fun to play on facebook, I really should get off my but and work out…. Thank you Chris. Not to mention that it has been frustrating Kurt that I have not been using the Wii or the games we have picked out for me to work out to.
I have to say that after doing the Jillian Michaels fitness ultimatum 2010, and having it royally kick my rear, I was not really into working out. I was sore for four days in a row and that made me want to give up. We had ordered the Biggest loser workout and it has been sitting on the table for over a week. I told myself that I was going to just do it today, suck it up and just go for it! So, I did…. it is so much easier to use that the Jillian Michaels one for me. It was easy to pick a fitness level and it stores all of your info so that you can track your progress. I like that. I took it a little easy and started out with the intermediate workouts and did a little over a half hour with cool down. I am ready to go out and buy it!
I am working my way up to doing the P90X. I have some friends that say that they really love the results. I just don’t feel like I am ready for that intensity yet. Let me work up to it a little.
I am hoping to get some walking in the evenings now that it is so light later in the evening. That way Kurt and I can do it together. That would be nice!
So, wish me luck!!

I am so very tired of the scale not budging very much! I am losing, I know that I should be happy with that. I am not…. I really need to be happy that I am making progress. I am just really tired of watching everything I eat, trying to get a work out in, and being diligent about life!!! If you can’t tell, I am having a rough day of sorts. I am really glad that I am making good decisions, I just have to say that it’s a long road and I am trying to find the courage in myself to keep going. I do have goals. They are realistic. I just need to buckle down.

I have been using the fat secret website to track everything. I am using the Wii to weigh in and exercise. I am on the extreme fat smash diet. What else can I do??

On the wedding front, we have contacted the cake person, the photographer, and the flower person. I am really happy with the progress there. I am going to wait to work on the dress until the end of this year I think. I am hoping that I at least reach one or two of my short term goals for that. We did go to a new bridal shop in Fairview, it takes donations for the dresses. They are a non-profit place called adorned in grace, that give their proceeds to help young women in trouble. All of the items are donated and they don’t put a price on anything. Interesting concept and I hope that they do well.

On the sleeping front… I have not been, again. I am trying something different, we put the air conditioner in the bedroom and hopefully that will help me sleep better.
