Resolutionist

As part of my goals for 2010, I want to get back to a healthier lifestyle. That means going to the gym more than just sporadically throughout the month. I'd like to make it a habit. I am doing better with packing lunches, the cold outside makes that easier. I am also cutting down on my soda drinking, I know that had to be a big chunk of my weight loss before. So today, I did hit the gym and did some good cardio for about 45 mins. I would have done some weights too, but I was really not feeling it today. I know lame excuse right? I am trying to get back into the swing of things! Last year I had said I wanted to bike Paint Creek Trail, and I never did it. Its not going to be an official goal for this year, but I would like to get out on my bike more this year. And for Diesle's sake I should probably take him for walks as often as possible! Let's see how these ideas hold up...

Almost There

For those of you that were not following my myspace blog, I started on a mission to loose weight about, oh who am I kidding, forever ago. But seriously, after my mom had to have back surgery, I decided that I really needed to get my weight in check. I went to Medical Weight Loss Clinic. For those of you not in the metro-Detroit area, its basically the devil at work. You pay lots of money, you eat nothing, but you loose weight. Don't get me wrong, I am loosing weight, and if I had to do over again, I might, but its just bloody expensive! So, basically the idea is that you eat foods from the store, not their foods, and you don't count calories or anything, but you have to eat a certain number of portions of different foods; protein, veggies, carbs, and fruits. Oh yea, and on top of that, you also have to get their drinks/bars which I think is the biggest expense. I am sure the products work, but I kinda feel like the ladies try to guilt you into the whole experience. Like every month the dang things go on sale, yet every time they behave like its never going to happen again. But enough ranting. I started on the program in September, lost 25 pounds by Christmas! It's taken another month but I think I finally got another 5 pounds gone! And I am kicking butt at the gym too! I can definitely feel a change in how I feel and am able to do more. I guess I can't complain. Right now I am doing a little boost, and I think I may already be down 3 pounds, we'll see next week.
