DAY 125: I'm not off the wagon yet

Maybe with the blog but I have been very successful and currently at my lightest weight in 3 years!

I'm 145.5 pounds or 12.5 lbs lost since the beginning. 3ish or more lbs since we last talked. I wanted to lose more by this point but that's fine. I'm still losing... despite 2 vacations and a anniversary plus I now can do 6 pushups! Plus I'm adding a lot of muscle. I started the challenge over with regular push ups.

Got the Wii Fit.. LOVE IT! Really fun to work out with and its a constant motivator. I haven't done a lot of group exercise due to schedule/vacation but I did start back up yesterday with a Yogilates class. Really liked it a lot and hope to do it every Sunday.

During the week it will be very hard to work out though (though atleast I can do my wiifit). I might try to do it in between classes or at least bike to schoole once or twice a week. No promises though because with 5 classes I'm running around without my head on as it is.

But yeah my weight was seasawing but I'm finally back in the grove and feeling more in control.

My goal for the end of September is 141. Which would make me officially not overweight, bmi wise! Still though I have 20 pounds from right now to get where I want to be 125. Normal bmi. Any skinner I don't think my body would look that good as. We'll see how it goes though. I hope to be that weight by mid spring if not early. Still gives me 6 months.

So yeah all is good!

I'll check in here once again - S

Day 89: Lots has happened

Wiifit!

Is starting to turn me around! Despite another holiday food binge... blah.


So since last time I weighed in on wed. at 148! So I'm under 150lb.

I've changed my workout plan now that I got the wiifit (as of this past wed.) I hope I stick with it. I definately feel hopefull.

Basically I'm giving up the 100 pushup challenge... I just was always sore and it wasn't heading me towards what I wanted to do. It wasn't balanced enough. But... it did help me out a lot. I went from doing 11 pushups on my knees to 34 straight! And... I can do full pushups! SO I consider it a success.


So I plan to do atleast 30 minutes on the wiifit every other day (doing all ranges of excercises including strength). Then on the odd days I'll do like 15, mostly yoga and cardio. Plus I want to do as many public yoga classes as my schedule allows.

But wiifit is nice becuase it is motivational, fun and makes me sweat! Very cool indeed.

You weight in every day and today I was back up to 150... :( I set my goal of 2 lbs every 2 weeks on the wii fit so still 1 lb a week. So that means I have to be 147lbs by next wed. I think I can still do it. I'll try to be sensible tuesday night at my anniversary dinner......


ANd then I'll be traveling for 4 days! Oi... I'll try to swim in my family's pool though and do some yoga on my own and not go crazy on food.


So yeah... things are back on track! - S
