I Have A Goal
I decided last Monday on a complete whim to join a gym I used to go to. Back in 2001 I was here in Texas visiting family and helping to take care of my sick Pawpaw when I joined for three months. G was only 1 then so I had quite a bit of baby weight to lose. They had a class called Bootcamp that totally kicked my butt and whipped me right back into pre-baby shape. So, that is why I joined up, but this time for 2 years. Yes, 2 years. I figured that if I commit myself to paying money every month that I will go. So far I have and I am very proud of myself. Today was the best workout so far. I walked and ran on the treadmill for 30 minutes and did weights... light weights (don't want to gain, want to lose). My goal is to lose 20 pounds by Christmas. I have also been very good with what I eat. Once you do it for a couple of days you get used to it and don't crave the good stuff anymore. And, I'm not feeling as tired as I used to. Wish me luck and don't let me slack!!!

Good luck! I love walking. Used to walk all the time after dinner. But hubby hates it and I don't like walking by myself.

I think I'm going to join so I can work out with you. Just like old times.

Oh sweetie, good luck! I hope you achieve your goals, I need to get myself to a gym too, but soccer practice, all the running with the girls is taking all of my time right now, but hopefully soon I'll get into working out again!

Hey I'm with you girl! I have a month to month membership with my gym, but I won't cancel ever cause I know I'd want to rejoin and not want to pay the initiation (sp?) fee. So I just posted about a deal I made with my husband to get me to go everyday. We have a Vegas vacation coming up. Woo hooo. I only have a month till then so my goal is at least 10 pounds. If I can manage more great but if not I'm cool with that. But 20 by Christmas, sounds like a plan. I'm with you.....

I've got to start doing something too....since I have started working at home, I have lost a lot of energy. I've always needed to loose the weight and working at home does help with the eating but I still need to get my exercise on.....maybe I'll let you inspire me.
