134 and holding

Well I weighed again this morning and I am .....134. WHich is fantastic, except I have been stuck at this point for a while. I have been bobbing back and forth between 134 and 137 for about two weeks now. While I am thrilled with my progress and feel proud that I have really stuck to it this time, I would love to see that scale say 133...a weight I have yet to see since I got pregnant with my first. So close yet so far away seems to keep popping into my mind. But I am seeing daily changes in my body, I don't chringe when I pass a mirror naked, ok maybe I do a little, but I have definitly stopped crying every time ;). So I am going to keep going and telling myself that 129 is really not far off. Volleyball tonight and tomorrow, and then back on the treadmill Monday.

Sticking to it!

I have stuck to my resolutioln this year to get back in shape. Yes I know it is only 21 days into the New Year, but I usually quit by now so YAY ME!!!!! I haven't seen a drastic drop on my scale, but I am definitley starting to see a change on my body and how my clothes fit. (i may need to go shopping soon)
I am not killing myself working out. Keeping it simple, 17-20 min. on the treadmill running and 100 crunches everyday. I have been playing volleyball on Fridays and Saturdays and Sunday is my rest day. That being said, I am TIRED alot. I also have been working 7 hour days and oh yeah taking care of four boys and a husband. So I am going to keep on keeping on and hopefully by Feb. I can see a more obvious change in things. Right now that is how i am working it. Instead of making long term goals I am taking it month to month....

Accomplished

So at the beginning of the year I told myself i was going to spend a week getting my diet back in check and then the next week kicking my workouts back in to gear. And......I have done it!!! I have done a min. of 17 min running on the treadmill and 100 crunches everday this week. Tomorrow I am going to play volleyball with some ladies from church, which will be fun, but best of all will be 5 workouts this week. So long week but I feel very accomplished, and am remembering how great it feels to workout again. Anyway Yay Me!!!!
