Again...

Have started again and again...weight loss, organizing, keeping life simple...the list goes on and on. I am human and can only take one step at a time. I want to share my stories of life and get feedback on how to make the best of it.

Day 2

So last night was the first night in a long time that I didn't feel guilty about eating dinner because I didn't really binge to bad yesterday!  I was actually starving at dinner time!  Maybe not starving but I was HUNGRY! :)

This morning I feel pretty good for the most part.  I almost wasn't going to get out my journal and do like I usually do and say oh, I will be good and not eat anything bad and stay within my calorie intake. But no, I know that is a lie!!!  So I got out my book and wrote down my breakfast, which is a yummy breakfast scramble my husband made for dinner last night! And I wrote down my feelings as well.  Eating beacause it is breakfast time and because I don't want to over eat later. 

It should be interesting to knowingly go throughout my days with this lingering in my head.  I had a bad nights sleep due to the little one being up a lot.  On these kinds of days, I normally binge on candy and even just typing that makes me want to go buy a bag!!  Isn't that crazy! So now I have to try and focus on something different!!!  LOL! 

So I did the 20 minute express Zumba and the Abs DVD yesterday.  My lower back muscles are sooo sore today!!  And my sides, I think those are the obliques right?  Goodness!! 

Here's to a good day folks...thank you for being kind and than you Trisha for sharing!!!  It is crazy how much we have in common. :)

I could Zumba my days away!

I got up this morning at 3:12 to let the dogs out 3:50 to feed baby and figured I might as well stay up cause my alarm is going to go off at 4:12.  So I got up started the coffee and got dressed in workout clothes.  My husband gets up and I am like "what are you doing up?" He says he wants to spend time with me, so I told him to get his shoes on!!! So since he hasn't had a chance to try this yet, I was nice and put the basics on and he learned the moves until baby boy woke up again.  He was such a trooper!!!  It was a blast with him!!! Although he didn't think he could do it and says that he may just jog on the treadmill while I do this Zumba stuff!  LOL!  :) 

So my lunchtime workout is again Zumba cause I love the way it makes me feel mentally and physically! And I need the energy cause it is date night!  No going to bed at 7 tonight! ;)

Shake your money maker!

Oh my goodness is Zumba fun!  I was shaking my thang for all it was worth and my thighs are a bit sore today!  I did it on my lunch hour yesterday and it was a blast! I am going to try to do it again today at lunch if I get a lunch hour.  I may be the only secretary at lunch time so I may not get to take a lunch.  So that would mean I would try and fit it in tonight! :)

I wish I could Zumba all day! LOL!  It brightened my mood and made the rest of the day so much better!  It gave me the energy to make good choices and energy to be with my family last night.  Maybe I will just practice my moves at the copy machine! :)

Shake My Grove Thang!

ZUMBA!!!!

I AM GOING TO SHAKE IT TONIGHT!!!! And the best thing...my family is going to do it with me! It is going to be so much fun! I am so excited! I can't wait to see my husband attempt this!!! LOL!! 

I have the older version with the little sticks.  I can't wait to get the moves down.  I was supposed to go with Trisha today and do a class, but my co-worker is out sick and my boss is gone, so I was left alone here to man the phones and the front counter.  I AM SO BUMMED! I so badly want to do an actual class, but maybe some other time. There is a Zumba party this weekend so I may see if I can go.

I am on a roller coaster ride with weight.  But I can't get discourage.  I can do this and I will...

Stay tuned for my interpretation of ZUMBA!

Bummed...

So I walked to the track today at lunch to see about some jogging.  I got my inhaler for EIA (exercise induced asthma) and was all set.  I haven't jogged much since the race because of pain in my legs when I run.  So I was all stoked to get going! 

I couldn't.  I got there in about 10 minutes and walked a lap and a half for a warm up.  I stretched first too.  Then I went to jog and IT HURT SO BAD! From my ankles to my knees! I was so disappointed!  It doesn't hurt to walk so why is it hurting when I jog?! UGH.  I was getting frustrated and about to just go back to the office, but I didn't.  I did a long walk for the rest of the hour I had.  I walked fast and strong! Just because I can't jog, doesn't mean I can't exercise right?!

Just makes it even more exciting for my Zumba DVD's to get here!!!  :)
