I want to blog badly yet I get caught up in my life and sidetracked by everything I don't have the time or energy to do it. So I am back and I hope to get better. I need the support to loose weight and I know blogging can help me a lot if I just do it.
So it's been a while and I have been very busy. I can't believe the summer is almost over with and our trip to London and Ireland is in just 19 more days! AAHHH!!! So needless to say I have only lost a few pounds. I have been sick and then my elliptical at home broke and then too busy to go to the gym so it seems that working out has been taking a backseat and I need to fix that. My at home elliptical is fixed now and I have no excuse other than yesterday and today I have a severe sore throat. AAAHHH! So I am nursing that and hope to make it to the gym tomorrow and get back on my normal workout routine by next week. That would mean working out for 30 minutes in the morning on the elliptical at least 3 days a week and going to the gym at least 4 days and doing 45-50 minutes on the elliptical and weights. So I hope to get back there to loose a few more pounds before the big trip. The good news with all this is I haven't gained weight. I have managed to keep it off and loose a couple more pounds.
We went to the beach this past weekend and stayed with friends and enjoyed their beach cabana. It was very nice. I also decided to go purchase a bathingsuit and I actually wore it. I haven't worn one in probably close to 10 years! I decided I didn't want to be left out and I did it. I was very worried and scared but all that matters is I DID IT! I do hope to loose a lot more. I say I have about 100 lbs til I hit a weight I think I will be happy with. So I do hope to get there. I have probably only lost about 10 lbs in the past year and I really hope I can move this weight. The good news is since joining the gym I have lost inches and I notice a difference and I have gained muscle so maybe that's why I haven't been dropping weight.
Who knows! So I haven't given up. I have just been busy and distracted. I hope to start blogging more as things start to settle down. Hopefully I will get back into my routine. I am figuring by the time I get into my routine it will be time for our trip. Oye! Haha.
Thank you for hanging in there with me, I appreciate it. Here's to a better week starting tomorrow!!
