to the gym today. I got up this morning at 8 to go to the gym before my counseling appointment. I was doing fine got changed went to take my meds and vitamins and ready to head out the door. However, my vitamins had another thing in mind. When I went to take them I gagged on them which in turn made me sick... so sick that I threw up and then got an instant headache. Needless to say I took 2 Advil then crawled back in bed until I had to get up for my appointment. :( However, before I went back to bed I promised myself that I would go to the gym this afternoon. So after lunch with my mother-in-law Jo, brother-in-law Nick and my wonderful husband Ben and then noise maker and wing shopping for Jo, I came home changed and hit the gym. I started my workout by walking to the gym instead of driving... the fresh air was nice and it wasn't nearly as cold as it looked. When I got to the gym I did 50 minutes on the bike and was about to head out the door when I rememebered that I said I was going to push myself today. I decided that I didn't want to walk/jog on the treadmill today which only left the dreaded Elipital machine... I hate that machine... it hurts and is hard for me. I sucked up all my dislike for the machine and decided to focus that energy on doing 15 minutes on it... you know what... it wasn't as bad as I remember... more boring then anything... but I did it. :) Then I walked home taking the longer route home... one of the best cool downs I've had in a long time.
Tomorrow the gym is closed so I am just hoping that the weather stays nice so that I can get up tomorrow and go for nice walk. Otherwise I don't know what I'm going to do for my workout. :( I might just decide to bundle up really good and go for a walk no matter what the weather is like. I'm doing so good on my goals this week I can whimp out on them now. My 1 Diet Coke today didn't taste nearly as good as it use to. I'm hoping that is a good sign and that it will be easier to cut it from my "diet" then I originally thought... we will see in 5 days when my last 12 pack runs out.
Oh I forgot to post a before picture when all this started... this is from awhile ago but I'm using it as my before picture... I'm thinking that the camera DIDN'T add 10 lbs that is all me!!!!
Me at 225 lbs.
I will be posting tomorrow but just to get a head start on things... HaPpY ThAnKsGiViNg EvErYoNe!!!!!! I'm hoping to stuff myself just enough that I don't feel guilty and that it doesn't undo all the hard work I've been doing!!!!
Let the lbs melt!!!
Me at 225 lbs.
