Annabelle3117's Journal, 04 September 2013

Over the weekend I went to the gym with a friend of mine. I've been working out alone since I started last March, but I've always stuck to the same things because that's what I was comfortable with. Forty five minutes on the elliptical, maybe some laps in the pool and back home. Well she had other plans, she wanted to used some of the weight machines... so we did. Together we figured out how to work them lol and we did some strength training. It was empowering to learn something new, and I really enjoyed it. I'm going to attempt to add that to my regimen, switch things up a bit. I also found my measuring tape so I'm going to start tracking my inches. I'm really wishing I would have gotten measurements in March, because I'm sure fifty pounds is quite a few inches lost!! But I'm excited to try it now. My next goal is to get to one-derland. (199 or less!) I'm hoping to be able to pull this off by thanksgiving, if I really kick some ass. Been spinning my tires in one place long enough. Time to start tracking some calories.

Good for you!! It's always good to try new things, and having a friend to try them with you is even better. You've got about 3 lbs. a week to lose to get that goal by Thanksgiving, you can do it!!

I certainly hope so!! I joined a biggest loser type contest with a friend of mine. Ten weeks, ten dollar buy in, most pounds lost takes all. The ten weeks about lines up with thanksgiving perfectly so why not. Who couldn't use the extra motivation!? I so badly want to be out of the two hundreds! I got to pick my 'number' for the contest, like an ID number so I chose 99 lol.

Just think about the Christmas presents you could buy with that money! We had a contest like that here at our Y last year and unfortunately the winners had gastric bypass during the contest, not fair in my opinion but they still got the prize, so I hope that doesn't happen with your contest. Good luck!!
