Weigh to Workout



Had a nice time last night and I managed not to drink beer. For a fleeting moment I thought about it but got over it. I had a diet Coke which tasted refreshing actually. I haven't had one in awhile.

I got on the scale this morning and I am down 1 lb to 257 lbs. 58 lbs. to date and 2 lbs. away from my lowest thus far. It kinda sucks losing pounds you have already lost but all you can do is just push forward right?

Tonight is my 1st of 3 - 50 minute training sessions. I was assigned the Fitness Manager because they neglected to call me back so yay for that. I am a little nervous about it but but I know it will be just fine. My objective is to set up a routine that I can build on as I get stronger.

HG is leaving today if all goes well. His car was not finished but should be sometime this morning.

A random thing I know but after reading this post on Lesley's blog Will Write for Food I decided it was worth spreading the word. When I was in my early 20s my friend's neighbor pointed it out to me and it is Lefty Loosy - Righty Tighty. If you are unscrewing something you want to turn it left to get it loose and right to make it tight. Hopefully this will save someone some time down the line. :-)




P.S. I posted a picture of my Easter bowl on my other blog in case you wanted to see it.

  2. Fitness manager eh? Movin on up girl! The worst feeling is losing weight that youve already taken off and then gained back. But every loss is a loss AND a step in the right direction. Go girl go!!!

  3. I hear ya on the losing pounds that you've already lost. :( I've got a lot of ways to go until I'm no longer losing pounds I already lost. I'm feeling this is it though. Good luck on your training session!

  6. You are so close to losing fresh pounds...I bet the session with the trainer will get you motivated to hit the gym often, and those pounds will start melting away!

  7. You can do it Katie! So close! Hopefully you stay motivated- for some reason when I get to this range (new fresh pounds), I seem to slow down and loosen up...causing me to just gain again. Ha. Maybe I'm the only one...

    Anyway- good luck with the trainer!!! He'll whip you into shape in no time! So exciting!

  10. I'm forever losing pounds I've already lost. Primarily because I've never EVER started a post by discussing how I skipped the beer.

  13. Well done on the pound lost - and for being only 2lbs from your lowest weight so far! You'll be under that before you know it. :o)

  14. I wondered about the bugg, if it worked, if people loved it. So, I opted for a great heart rate monitor to keep me in-line and work out without killing self.

    Hey, congrats on the weight loss - I know you're losing weight you've already lost, but what a great attitude you have!
