Last week's workouts
Wednesday, April 15, 2009
Okay, so ...
Got through the weekend pretty okay, although I didn't track what I ate. This is due mostly to my propensity to eat foods that are best served dipped in butter when up north.
Also, I lost track of the booze. Probably four beers and ... some tequila. One shot on Friday, and I spent all day Saturday at Dale & Candy's, so ... yeah, who knows.
Had a great walk around the lake with Amber, and danced a fair bit on Friday night, so I don't think I undid any of the good work I've done so far. I'm just really, really ready to not be this heavy person anymore. I want to not feel self-conscious on the beach. I want to peel off the layers and be who I'm supposed to be.
I'm not there yet. But I'm moving forward.

A wee bit of fear
Headed to Wisco this weekend, which means I'll be surrounded by love ... and temptation. Must find the balance between what I take into my body and what I put out as energy. I'm planning to walk along the lake, and there will probably be dancing, so ... deep breath ... I'm just gonna take it as it comes. Will check in when I return!

Progress report - Maggie
Where we begin
Square one, people. Although I'm probably closer to square two, having been at it for about a year.
Got on the scale today, and just about did a little dance ... the smallest number I've seen in years popped up on the little digital display of happiness: 230.5. Not a number I'm proud of, not something that thrills me, but it's mine and I've worked hard at it and let's face it ... it's a WAY smaller number than the 285 we started with.
I put on the prettiest bra today, and it fit. No, I'm not going to post a picture.
So happy Wednesday, people. Today's plan is to head to the gym after work and get some great cardio in. I'm tracking my food, although not flawlessly, and I'm really doing things I enjoy with my body. Walks at lunch, classes or equipment at the gym ... I love the range of activities I can indulge in! And soon, the outdoor pool at the gym will be open and I will spend many a summer Saturday, stretched out on a lawnchair, imagining I'm at a posh resort and feeling the warmth of the sun.
Life is good.
