Time is fleeting....

Today was so NOT a good day. I didn't get to do Turbo Jam before going to work, I had to drive in a torrential downpour, I got soaked head to toe, and we were hella busy all night. Now I am home, tired, and my back is killing me. I ate healthy, but I hate missing workouts! I will be sure to get one in tomorrow. At least the rain finally stopped. I had water in places I didn't even know existed.....

Yoga....more like You-Gotta-Be-Kidding-Me.......

Well, it's official: I am too fat for yoga. Dammit. I tried a basic yoga routine today. I did alright until it was time for something called a "child's pose". My head was no where near the floor, and I damn near fell over. I honestly did not realize how badly my weight has affected my agility until today! I could not bend far enough due to fat rolls; I could barely get my legs in the proper crossed position required for basic poses. OMG it was such a disaster. Talk about an eye opener. The only thing that kept me from curling up in the fetal position in utter defeat and shame was the fact that I can't bend that goddamn far. I mean, really? Am I really that fat? *sigh* I am determined to do yoga, though. Maybe I can find a fat girl routine or something. Until then, I suppose I will just stick with my Turbo Jam. Yoga could be dangerous. I can see it now, my husband coming home to find me laid out in the floor unconscious because I lost my balance and crushed myself. Maybe after I lose some more rolls, yoga won't be so difficult. Besides, it is supposed to relax you. I was pretty much gasping like a sick moose. Not my best moment. I'm happy with exercise for now. Oh well. At least I did try. Until next time....

Grrrrrrr.....

Today I truly wished for a shotgun and amnesty. *sigh* I just had to deal with a very immature person on the phone for about 20 minutes. I would have rather chewed on a Brillo pad. Seriously. Anyway, today I am still on track. I had hoped to try yoga for the first time today. (I certainly could use it now that my blood pressure is sky high.) However, time did not allow it. I will try it out tomorrow, hopefully. Other than that, same old same old. My life is pretty boring right now, what can I say? Hey, I promised to blog everyday about my journey. I never said it would be riveting. LOL. Until tomorrow....

She's back......

Ok, so I FINALLY have a functional computer again! My hubby is such a smart man. I could never fix a computer. Anyway, I have been sticking to my healthy eating and exercise. I measured today, but the computer fiasco resulted in a loss of information. I no longer have the site that listed my measurements. I mean, I can hunt it down again, but as yet I haven't. Suffice it to say I am down to 250lbs and I lost about half and inch each on my waist, chest, and hips. I am logging my progress on Team Beachbody now, and my profile is under KellyMichelle79. I don't have the direct link, but I assume you can search for me there. If I get a link I will post it. This week is going to suck. It is that lovely time of the month. I hate water retention! I don't use table salt, and I try to keep things low sodium, but still.....I always end up bloated and grumpy. Blah. I pray for early menopause.....

UPDATE: This should be the link to my profile:  Kelly's Beachbody Page

Update....

Ok, I just want to post and let you all know I am still alive. My computer died on me. First my scale, then my PC. Do all electronics have it in for me now? Anyway, I was unable to post for several days. Now I am back online, thanks to my lovely hubby! Expect my blogs to resume tomorrow!

Hump day blahs.....

I feel kind of blah today. I think it is because I had 2 wonderful days with my hubby to celebrate our 3 year wedding anniversary (it was Monday) and now it is back to reality. Why can't every day be our anniversary? LOL! I did not blog, but I stayed on track. It wasn't easy, we all want to get lazy and eat like pigs on special occasions. I maintained my healthy ways. It felt good! Today I ran some errands, and I am about to go workout. Then it will be clementines and the couch for me! So, until tomorrow...

Up yours.....

Well, I finally "upped" my workout today. I have slowly recovered from that chunky funk phase, and I was doing the Turbo Jam Ab Jam and Learn/Burn. Today I did the 20 Minute Jam. More intense, lots of sweat. I survived! I figured if I could do the 45 minute Cardio Party that 20 minutes would be a breeze. Shoot, this is a totally different experience from just straight cardio! This was a freaking total body workout. So now I am pleasantly sore in various parts of my body. I like the 20 Minute Jam! It was a lot of fun, even though I was sweating like a pig. Chalene Johnson is the first instructor I haven't actively cussed while doing their program. She makes it enjoyable.
On another note, I am still contemplating the working out in front of the hubby issue. One thing I thought might be the cause is, of course, body image. I don't look like those people on the screen. I don't do the moves quite as well as they do. No woman ever wants to look less than top notch to her man, even though we know he will love us regardless. I guess I'm afraid of looking foolish or imperfect. I don't know. Still working on this one. Maybe I will have more insight tomorrow. See you then....
