These past few days I've had a lot of personal things come up and I can definitely say that stress has weighed down heavily on how I am handling myself. Even though I have not changed my eating habits in the last few days I feel like I am somehow gaining weight based off of the stress I am enduring! SOO FRUSTRATING.
Zumba tonight made me feel so good about myself, like really good! I love the way that working out makes me feel about myself, and the day after- Whew! I love that feeling of hurt in my legs and arms because I know that something is working and especially in my legs. I try to take the stairs at work, and avoid elevators as much as I possibly can and every step I can feel the ache through my body but to me it feels like heaven. It's just another reminder of how great I am doing, and the reasons that I am doing this again.
Kristen is joining the Fitbit team! This makes me really happy because we can cheer and taunt each other and really motivate us to do better. I am extremely proud of her this week because she is down 7 pounds! Woohoo you go girl! She is going to show me how to do the hustle, and we are going to use it as a little warm up and work our way up each night.
Tonight Kristen and I worked out for about two hours but it didn't really even seem like that. We were both able to accomplish 10 Push Ups, 10 Sit-ups, and some other miscellaneous stretches before we got into our Zumba routines. The start of Zumba was a little different, and we did some newer upbeat songs so of course our legs were killing us especially with Dance Fitness with Jessica and the Dark Horse song- Let me tell you- YOUR LEGS will cry after this haha. I might not be able to get all of the moves exactly like these ladies and gentleman but at least I am out there and I am trying to do them. For instance- I may not be able to complete a high kick yet, but I'm for sure going to at least do what I can and attempt a low kick!
Frankly, I weighed myself after three meals and drinking a lot of water, so I am not sure if I am way up in weight or if I had another setback.
Today's Weight: 275.6 :-(
This number makes me very sad, I am working very hard to better myself and get to a comfortable weight not only for health reasons but for myself overall. I definetly want to avoid the surgery but when I see this number again after everything I've done to make it better I do tear up a bit.
Hopefully this next week I will do much better! I am still waiting on my items from ItWorks, so I shall keep you updated once I start using them and their affects and effects :-)
Goodnight World
