Burn Baby Burn

Today I went to the gym, unfortunately didn't get a chance to go twice like I planned...sleep took over!!!
But this morning I managed to go for a swim (did 5 laps: 1 lap = up and down), despite the fact that my swim cap ripped. I also did 30 minutes on the eliptical.
It is disheartening that I allowed myself to get to this size but it is motivation to get back down to a reasonable size...not what I used to but something in the middle, like a size 4.

Moment of Clarity

So I finally took my butt to a gym and signed up for a membership...will meet with the personal trainer tomorrow.
So not only did I gain back my one lil pound but found out that my body fat percentage (28.6) is OBESE status...smh

So going to see my personal trainer and show him my goals and see what he can do for me. Monday I see the dietician. definitely not trying to do less than 1500 although typically I do about 1700...just need to up my output (workout) and I'll be good!!!

Let's see where we get to by next week!!!

UPDATE!!!

So I have officially lost ONE WHOLE POUND!!! Now if I kick it up I might be able to lose more!!! Every step counts!!!

Wednesday Update

Man...Zumba was awesome...Shout out to Crystal & Courtney in Philly for the AWESOME workout!!! It was much needed.
I am still maintaining my morning workouts. I'm feeling great...now if only I can start to eat on a regular basis!!!

Workout Mix & Morning Workout

So to control the time on my morning workouts I have a playlist that lasts 17 minutes (6 minutes for stretching and 11 minutes for workout). The goal is that as time progresses I will be able to do more in that time frame.

Here is my playlist...what's yours?
Stretching Music
Piano & I - Alicia Keys
As I am (Intro) - Alicia Keys
Harlem's Nocturne - Alicia Keys
Beast Mode - B.o.B.
'Till I Collapse - Eminem
Multiply - Xzibit

The goal:
200 jumping jacks
200 ab exercises
200 push ups (regular & reverse)
200 relevés
200 pliés

Working it Out

I have successfully completed two morning workouts. Unfortunately I missed my Zumba class yesterday but will make it tomorrow!!!
One day at a time!

GET IT TOGETHER!

I really need to GET IT TOGETHER!!

I'm starting at:

Weight: 139lbs

-Measurements:
- Bust: 40 in
- Waist (belly button) 33 in
- Hips: 40 in
- Arms: 12 in
- Thighs: 22 in

My short-term goal is:

 

Weight: 130lbs

-Measurements:
- Bust: 38 in
- Waist (belly button) 30 in
- Hips: 38 in
- Arms: 10 in
- Thighs: 20 in

I would like to AT LEAST be half way to this goal 6weeks from now.......WISH ME LUCK!

 

I need to come up with some type of work-our routine. My eating habits aren't bad so I don't plan on changing that up too much.  I've already cut out fast-food to once a week and I only drink soda on the weekend if that so that alone will definitely keep me from gaining.

 

I've also decided to do small things at work like parking further so I'll be forced to walk.  Also, I work on the 18th floor so I'm going to start taking the stairs down whenever time permits and eventually I'll take them up.

 

Since I no longer have a gym membership I need to workout at home.  I haven't really come up with a plan for that yet but I will soon...........
