It's been almost a full year since I posted on this blog. I've gained weight, I've lost weight, I've gained it back, plus more. It's a roller coaster - up and down, up and down, and now it's just been steadily going up.
Yesterday I started the Insanity workout. A friend from work started it also, so we are going to compare notes and talk about the workout from the day before. Yesterday was just the "Fit Test", which is about 30 minutes long. I was out of breath just after the warm-up! I tracked the number of Globe Jumps, High Kicks, Knee Jacks, etc. In two weeks, I will take the fit test again and see if my numbers have improved.
I feel good but despondent - I feel like I will never reach my goal. (Good attitude, huh?) My legs are a bit sore today, but not bad. I drank a ton of water - (and I'm two pounds heavier this morning - it better be water weight!)
I wrote a long list of reasons under "Things I Can Do When I am Healthy". I think I listed about 40 things. It's motivating, but I feel so far away from what and who I want to be. About 80 pounds away. And I keep kicking myself, because I was only 30 pounds away from my goal 15 months ago, and I've gained 50 since then. 80 is a whole LOT MORE than 30.
So, I'm starting over. I want to be down 30+ pounds by Jon's graduation on May 5th. So that's 10 pounds per month at least. Because I want to be in pictures with him. :)
