in Introduce Yourself
Hello! I'm Anna. I decided about 3 weeks ago (ok really like 6 months, a year, 2 -5 years) that I'm tired of being this fat. I need to change. I made myself promise when school was out (I'm a 3rd grade teacher) that I'd start a routine. So 3 weeks into summer I'm on day 18 of a 90 day Turbo Jam challenge. I actually am about 5 days ahead of that because I got started about a week earlier than the rest of my group.... I'm plateuing and getting a little discouraged.. My head KNOWS that I'm doing things correctly but the impatient part of my wants this weight off yesterday! I started at 273 and my weigh in is tomorrow. Last week I weighed 270.6 . I feel like I'm heavy enough the weight should be coming off faster than it is. BUT I refuse to give up again. I am feeling great in my work outs and am starting to see a difference in my clothes.
Well that's my little tidbit. I look forward to this journey with everyone!

    Hey there! My name is Kristina. I am a 33 year old mom of 4. I am right there with you on all the times I have decided enough is enough.. After the birth of my 10 month old I was 204 pounds. I have lost 20 pounds. Then got to a point where I did ot lose anymore but did ot gain either. I have joined the gym..about a month ago. I go 6 days a week,cardio every day and strength every other day. The thing to remember is yes you are burning calories like crazy but at the same time you are toning..so you may not see a difference in numbers as fast but you are I am sure losing inches..you are seeing a change in how your clothes fit :) yay that's awesome!! Keep up the good work. I know it can be frustrating..I try to only weigh myself once a week at the same same time every week. As much as I tell my self it is only a number we all know it is so much more then that..anyway,I wish you the very best of luck and I am here for support anytime! It is nice to have peop,e around that can relate!! Take care,Kristina
