Back on the wagon

I just came home from the gym. Not as long as I used to go, but long enough for someone like myself who is totally out of shape. That being said...my average speed was 2.6 and I tried to stay at 2.8 for at least 3 minutes (or one lap) at a time, I burned 109 calories (not including the "cool down"), I did 5 full laps. I am proud of myself- now here comes the hardest part...I'm hungry!

Why is this so hard?

I didn't make it to the gym to work out. Big shock there! Not that this is an excuse, but it is a cause. I got my period last night. I can't do anything when I have my period, let alone work out. I am watching what I eat and eating out somewhat less. I've made dinner two nights in a row (tonight is an experiment so we'll see if I eat it) and I brought my lunch today. Tomorrow I'm eating a salad from Emily's as a treat to myself and then I'll make dinner- whatever that is. I just have to force myself to work out. How? Today my psychiatrist told me I was overweight. Ouch!

Back Into The Swing Of Things...

It's been exaclty 7 months since my last entry. Obviously I did not stick to my gameplan, but it's back into the swing of things this week. I cancelled my PT contract because I wasn't using it. So now I am just going to be committed in going to the gym, eating healthy, burning calories, and I'm adding yoga for stress relief. Wish me luck!
