Absolutely No Excuse

For my inability to stick with working out. I don't know what is up with me but I know that I need to lose weight and I know that I have to get active, STAY active, and eat right to do so but I can't find my motivation. Had I kept this up when I first started in January I'd have almost 2 months under my belt right now. Summer is steadily creeping up and before I know it, It will be here and I will still be in the same, sad, sorry state of fatness that I'm presently in. I know I better get to moving soon!!! I know as soon as the weather breaks (yes, we still have snow) I will hit the track and start walking and/or running. I also know that I have just about every workout tape known to man as well as a weight bench, treadmill (albet in storage since it wasn't being used and just taking up space), dumbbells, barbells,exercise bands, fitness ball, and the like so I have ABSOLUTELY NO EXCUSE not to work out. I think I'm going to take some photos and post them up where I'll be sure to see them and I know that will motivate me! Today I have plans to do something, If my mind doesn't succeed in talking me out of it, I will get my workout on!

I'm Getting Excited.

I'm feeling a bit refreshed. Admittedly, I haven't been doing much of anything as of late. my workouts are sporadic at best and I haven't really been watching my eating but today it was so beautiful out, I decided to walk the kid to school this morning. I'll most likely be walking to pick the kid up as well.

I hope this is a sign that Spring is on the way. It's a whopping 60 degrees here today...  60! lol I know that's probably freezing to you all who've been spoiled by beautiful weather all year round but 'round these parts, we take what we can get.

 I'm seriously thinking of getting ChaLean Extreme as I am tired of p90X already and I've only done it once. I think the fact that I know every joke, comment, laugh etc is what really gets to me. It gets old you know? Anyway I did Shaun T's Rockin' Body (Disco Grooves) and I absolutely love it. Yes, you are working out and depending upon how hard you work it (and I try to go pretty hard) you can work up a nice sweat too. It's also really fun, I find myself just grinning from ear to ear at Shaun and some of the old skool moves.

 While I'm not actively altering my diet too much, which I know is a big no no because diet and eating right is about 85-90% of weightloss, I will be attempting to keep track of what I'm eating daily for at least 7 weekdays. (I do what I wants on the weekends) haha!

I also plan to re-measure, and re-do all the stats and come summer we'll see where I am.
