Such a loser right now...I haven't been keeping up with anything. Well I think I am going to do a 90-day challenge with my friends. I believe once I get into the habit of working out, taking the time to workout won't be such a drag!!!
Day 1 of 90 starts today...Zumba here I come!!!

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!!!

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!
