You may be able to tell from the title, but I am having a great week! I've been doing well eating. And last Sunday I promised myself that I would work out at least three times this week and I have done that too. The workouts are great, usually about 35 minutes jogging on the treadmill and another 30 minutes on the bike. I found that I do need to be careful though because I pushed myself extra hard on the bike once this week, which was great, but then I ended up with sore knees a bit and I think that then affected me on the treadmill for my next workout. So I will watch out for that.
My husband has continued to workout with me and I am really happy about that too. Even this morning, he spent a lot of time shoveling outside and was exhausted when he was done so wasn't planning on working out with me (he is also just getting over a cold), but he surprised me by still coming downstairs and using the treadmill for 30 minutes. Yay him! And then he actually said thanks to me and that I was good motivation for him...awe...
So...I have decided that I am going to start posting pictures. I have been scared to, but I think it will be good for me. Can't keep the picture of my puppy up forever, that's just not what I look like, lol. So I will try to do that tomorrow. Or even tonight if I get a chance. I have a lot of weight to lose and one day I hope to be able to look back and see the pictures showing progress.
Okay, another great thing this week: To start, I kind of suck. I am a true home-body, love being at home, never ever get bored here. So often I will choose not to go places or do things because I just want to stay home, especially if I am doing something new AND alone. Last fall I registered myself for a photography workshop when a groupon came out and it was for this past Saturday. I actually had to talk myself into going. But once I decided for sure I was, man was I excited! And I went and I loved it. Ayla, it truly would have been wonderful if we could have done that together, I thought of you a lot. Is it weird that I am proud of myself just for going? lol Well, I am. And I may just do it again. Now I want to take pictures again and see if I can apply some of what I learned.
Tomorrow morning is WI, I am hoping to lose at least 1 lb, more would be great but who knows.
One last fantastic thing...I HAVE MORE THAN 1 FOLLOWER...OMG, lol. I'm pretty excited about that, lol. So hello Katy and Anna, you have made me very happy today! :)
Hi Linda! Nice to "meet" you! Ayla has told me what a awesome lady you are. I have loved reading your blog and I LOVE that you are a golfer <3 I live for golf in the summer!
