Under 230

Well, I got on the scale this morning and I'm down to 227, which takes me to a loss of 80lbs in 3 months and 19 days. WOW! I finally seriously went through my clothes today and tossed out 13..THIRTEEN... pairs of pants that fell off of me! It was such a reality check. I will never EVER go back to that again. I'm officially down to a size 22. The 24, 26, 28s are all GONE! I need to go through my tops now, although that's a differen story because the ladies are still just as big as they were before surgery! It felt good to have so many things that didn't fit, although now my closet looks empty! I have a whole 4 pairs of pants in there! LOL...anyways, worked out today! Did .60 on the elliptical in 15:30 and did 125 sit-ups and some upper body weights. I still don't "look forward to" working out but I dont' seem to dread it as much as I once did. Plus for once in my life I'm proud of myself for exercising. It makes me feel so good to know that I've done it. Sounds corny, but I feel happy about myself when I exercise! :)

Worked out Another 2 Days

Well, I worked out yesterday and today! Yesterday (Thurs) I did .60 on the elliptical in 15:30. That's the most I've done on it and it felt so good! In addition I did 125 sit-ups with the rolling thing and did some upper body weights to start strengthening my muscles! Today (Fri) I walked 2 miles. I was going to do more at my dads but we didn't get over there. Anyways, when I got on the scale last night with my clothes on I was at 229 but I seem to jump around a few pounds every day, so not sure how true that was! I'll weigh in tomorrow morning without clothes to see what my official weight is. Hopefully it'll be under the 230 mark. How nice will that be!

Took A Break Today

Well, after 5 days in a row I figured today I deserved a break! I had to work all day, so I figured today was a good day to not work out. I'll be back to the normal routine tomorrow! The scale is almost below 230. The last two weeks I've had very minimal loss. Kinda bummed about that, but I know it's a slow process.

4 Days Down

Well, so far I've worked out 4 days in a row! Yeah for me! Let's see yesterday (Sunday) I did 15 minutes (1/2 mile) on the elliptical and 125 sit-ups. This morning we walked to school (2 miles round trip) and I plan on walking again this afternoon for a total of 4 miles. It's so nice not to be out of breath from walking.

Another Day of Working Out

Well, two days in a row! I did 15 minutes on the elliptical (.54 miles) thought I was going to die! I also did 125 situps and just a little lifting with my arms just to get them warmed up for future workouts! I was worn out but it felt good!

Did 4 miles

Well, I decided last night I had to start working out! It is 1 mile to my son's school, so I asked him if he wanted to start walking to school. He was thrilled! So, I know it's Friday, but we started today! We walked to and from school, totaling 4 miles I walked! My feet are killing me! I'm glad I did it though! I just have to keep it up!
