Today marked that day that I started over...for the FINAL time! Its been almost a year since I've weighed in here and that was 25 pounds ago. It's been a year of ups and downs and I'd like to keep the down element only referring to my falling weight from now on.
I have a challenge posed to be by my mother who knows that I need a little more than a push in the motivation department...for ever pound that I lose...she will give me $10. I'm unfortunately not working right now so this will provide me some spending time in the interim.
Today was the first day on the challenge and I have put it on myself to make working out my "job"
I started the day with 30 minutes on Wii Fitness Coach which was light cardio.
Then in the afternoon I went to the gym and did a nice heart pumping workout...20 minutes on the treadmil with a jog/run combo, then some weights, followed by 15 minutes on the elliptical.
Then I came home, relaxed, had a healthy dinner and then topped off the day with 30 minutes on the stationary bike.
I'm already sore and might have gone a little too hard as my first day but I'm already feeling good about taking the first steps.
