Consistent.....

Here I am, another pressed-for-time Saturday and I still did my workout! I did my Turbo Jam Ab Jam and my 1 mile super walk. I am sweaty and happy at the moment! Exercise has become so much a part of my life that I was about 4 minutes into the ab workout before I truly even though about what I was doing. It was just so automatic: get up, eat, rest a bit, work out. I love this! I enjoy myself now when I am working out. Exercise is actually fun. I used to hear people say that and I thought they were totally bat shit insane or something. Now, I am one of those people. Well, call me crazy.....

Slackin' off.....

Yeah, I missed a few days of posting. I am still on track with my health, even making some strides. I just got sidetracked and didn't get my posts done. Sorry. Hope someone is still reading this! I am really enjoying my cardio workouts. They are just so fun and invigorating! I do the Turbo Jam Cardio Party. Today I noticed that I didn't struggle as much as I used to. I have improved! Awesome!
On another note, I have been really getting into nutrition and such again. I am researching more about additives and preservatives in our food supply, as well as those god awful GMO products. I fully support accurate labeling of GMO ingredients. Here is a great site for more info: Just Label It  I love this site. Also, if you are curious about what is in the food you consume, go to Food Facts and check out their site. So much helpful info for free! I encourage everyone to have a look at what is in your food. You may think you are healthy, but when you learn about the chemicals you are eating you will be surprised. I was. Go. Learn. Tell.

Wait...what?

Ok, ok...so hubby and I are slack asses and we forgot to go get a new scale. Sue me. We will get one soon. Promise. Anyway, I was a good girl again today. I did my Turbo Jam 20 minute workout. I'm saving my walk for later tonight, since it should be beautiful weather. I am going to try and take it outdoors. I am trying to keep my mood up today, but hubby is in a foul one and that is not helping. Bad moods ruin everything. What a grouch. I plan to relax today. I want to read a bit, and I got some of those ultra soft aloe sock thingies for my feet. (they're purple!) I suppose I will slather on some lotion, don my socks, and relax while my feet get softer. Sounds like a plan to me.

Sweet Sunday....

I feel pretty awesome right now. I just did my Turbo Jam Ab Jam and a brisk 1 mile super walk courtesy of my Leslie Sansone dvd. The old me would have seen today as a day to be lazy, since I am off work and have no errands to run. The new me said, "Hell no! I am pushing play!" I surprised myself this past week. I worked out every single day, without fail. That has to be a first for me. I am down about 4 pounds I think, but we still haven't gotten that new scale. We plan to go out tomorrow and finally choose one. My gut is slowly disappearing, I have more energy, hell I am even sleeping better. Ah, the benefits of fitness! I could get used to this. It will be a slow process, losing all this weight, but I plan to enjoy it this time around. Besides, I'm a Libra. I can make anything fun!  :)
