So today was a big step for me. After losing almost 20 pounds and showing Brian that I am serious about this journey, we discussed it and he allowed me to join a gym. I shopped around and found one I like and today I signed a 2 year contract. Eeek! That's 2 years I'm committing to this lifestyle. The scarier thing to me is the fact that I'm not scared! I am energized knowing that I have somewhere to go now for 2 years to work on me. I worked out last night after touring the place and pushed hard on the elliptical. Today I pushed harder on the treadmill but didn't leave the elliptical out either. 2.25 miles on the treadmill in 45 min. I didn't run much so I was slower than I have been. Then I did 13 min on the blasted elliptical. I don't know why I hate that thing so much, but golly do we not get along. The good news is last night I stopped twice. Today I did not stop. I'm pushing as hard as I can to get through.
I feel like I'm in a constant state of sore these days. Not that I'm complaining, but I have to laugh at how worried I was when I started this to feel any aches. HA! I can't remember the last day I didn't ache from a good workout and I'm proud of that!
This week I have taken a break from calorie counting. Its Easter and I wanted to splurge on some of the fun foods I've been missing. I felt like poo Monday and Tuesday because of the soda and crap. So I'm slowly cutting it back out yesterday and today and by this coming Monday I'll be back in business. Ready to reach that first goal of 250lbs! I have until August, but I can so do this before then!
