OK, guys....I have been BSing enough! I finally grabbed the bull by the horns and got myself to the gym yesterday and walked 45 minutes on the treadmill at 3.5 mph doing random hills at level 5. From this point on, I plan on going to the gym at least 4 days a week (Mon - Thur) but if I can go 5, I will.

I have been logging my foods and I am doing pretty good.

Anyone else wanna join me? I plan on posting everyday on this thread for my own accountability.

You guys are a great support group, if you wanna join me - well come on down! :tongue:

    I am working on re-motivating myself also. I have a race planned for March so this morning I did 15 minutes of Hartha Yoga and ran 2 miles. It's a start.

    I finally got back with the program 2 weeks ago and my momentum is still strong but once it fades I'll also need help staying accountable so I'm in! I'll be going to my spinning class tonite and the instructor tonite is a psycho so I know I'll be getting a good workout! :laugh:

    Today is a workout day off so I am going to focus on staying around my calories and eating healthier calories. Like I have a salad for lunch.

    Me too! My thighs are sore from working out, so I think I'm going to take it easy and get back into it tomorrow. I need at least 1 day off, right?! :smile:

    You know what, I keep telling myself that I need to start swimming, it's such a good workout and it'll be a great way to switch up my routine. I just need to motivate myself to do it :grumble:

    We changed gyms because I wanted to add swimming to my regular work out. My walking club does not walk during the winter months so I needed something to change from the gym routines. Our new gym has a pool. I did go at lunch and did 30 minutes on the elliptical. I feel worked out today. Tomorrow is an hour with my personal trainer in the morning!

    Did a 2.2 mile run in 27 minutes and it was only 27 deg F outside. Also did 17 minutes of Yoga with 2 minutes of Meditation. 316 more calories to eat today.

    Feeling good today. :smile:

    Didn't post yesterday. I think I was too sore to type! I didn't work out but I did stay within my calories.

    I will do another Firm workout today. Usually means about 450 calories burned. When I do that, it's not hard to stay within my calories.

    Dreading the weekend. So many Christmas events coming up. May have to double up on the workouts.....

    Get up early and do them before you distracted by your day.

    Today I did 30minutes of strength training and stretching. Kind of a light work out cardio wise but much needed strength training for the core and upper body.

    Have a good weekend everyone.

    Today I just did a fun workout with Wii Fit Plus. Not many calories but it kept me moving. I also checked in this morning and lost another lb. Only 3 lbs to go for my goal.

    Happy Holidays.
