Monday Weigh In.

SW: 301.4
CW: 271.8


I lost 1.8 since my "Sunday" weigh in, where I was just weighing in to see where I stood. Monday will be my official weigh in day! I have also lost 29.6 pounds all together! I'm almost back to where I was a few months ago, so that is pretty exciting! 

Today I went and got my workout in with a good friend! I am proud to say that I exceeded myself in my workout. Last time I went by myself I could only manage 5 minutes on the elliptical. Today I managed to do 15 minutes on the treadmill, I attempted a stationary bike for about 3 minutes and wasn't feeling it, so then I went to the elliptical where I ended up doing it for TWELVE minutes! WOOHOO! Now I wasn't exactly going super fast the entire time, but I felt so very awesome and proud of how much I was able to do! 

I also went grocery shopping and am pretty proud of how well I did with buying healthy things. Now I just have to make sure I don't go after junk food or pop this week! Time to wean myself off the pop again. It's so frustrating that everytime I get rid of the addiction I manage to bring it back! No good. 

I hope everyone else is having a fantastic week! 

What are some of your goals this week?

My goal is to work out 4 days this week. I've done Sunday and Tuesday so far. I wasn't able to go Monday due to a terrible storm on my way home. I will be going Wensday and Thursday though! Friday and Saturday they are closed early so I won't be able to go as they will be closed before I get out of work.

Well hello there July.

I joined Planet Fitness today! I have never been very big on gyms, but this one I actually really enjoyed. I am also enjoying that I feel pretty good and motivated again.. Due to some recent personal events I haven't felt very motivated to focus on my health or losing weight. However, I definitely feel re-motivated. So today I made the decision to join Planet Fitness. A new one just opened up and it is right on my way home from work, so it's a really good location for me. My plan is to get into the routine of working out after I get off of work. Since they close early on Friday and Saturday those will have to be my two "rest" days. Today I did 5 minutes on the elliptical, 5 minutes on the treadmill at 2.0 (for my warm up and cool down) and 20 minutes at the pace of 3.0. So I am pretty happy with that! 

I weighed in today to track my new "starting" weight on my fitness pal. I am planning on weighing in on Monday's.

Time to get back out of the 270's..again!

I hope everyone else is doing well! I hope everyone had a Happy 4th of July.
