Happy Days
28 days since my last cigarette.
Starting my "diet" again now that I'm back from vacation.
Its more of a different lifestyle than a diet. I'm not eating better just to look better, I want to feel better. I dont want my heart to give out when I'm 60. I want to age well. I want to be around for my great grand children.
I worked out for 40 minutes yesterday on the Elliptical. 3 miles. I hear they aren't that great for burning calories because it is so low impact. Tomorrow I will hop on the stationary bike for 40 minutes and see how that goes.
When I first started going to this gym, one of the trainers came up and introduced himself to me. He was trying to get me to come to one of his cycling classes. He asked me "What is your goal?". All I could think is, 'I want to look good naked' but i didn't feel it was too appropriate and he would probably take it the wrong way. I answered simply "I just want to tone up"
I used to hate goals. But now I love them. It gives me something to focus on day to day.
My goal is to drop 2 dress sizes by May. I dont know where that would put me weight wise, but I dont really care.
Currently: 138lbs. Size 9/7
Goals ?lbs Size 5/3
The goal isn't really that unreasonable. I have been that size before. I didn't get that size the healthy way. AND it only took about 3 weeks... Depression is a bitch.
I had a whole wheat english muffin for breakfast with an egg and one slice of Bacon. MMMMMmmm Watching what I eat shouldn't be too bad.
... I just paused writing this to check my paycheck that was just handed out X - P Its so sick. 40 hours, $10 and I only take home $302.61. How sad. I need to make up a resume.
