Working Out

I have to get better at posting here.  I am still working out and attempting to eat better.  One set back has been a severe sinus infection and the weather. I love walking and jogging outside, but the weather is changing and it is making me sick :-(.  Plus the other day I guy attempted to set a few businesses in my area (right at the end of my walking route) on fire and he was out and had not been caught....decided not to chance walking that morning.  I am now going to have to step up my indoor workouts in the mornings. Here are my options.

1. I have a few exercise DVDs at home, but honestly they do not motivate me.
2. My apartment has a workout area, but it is not the best. There is one treadmill that works great, but it is usually taken when I go in :-(
3. Could invest again in joining a gym or YMCA, but that is money that I rather not spend right now.
4. My company has a free workout area, but that would mean getting up and being ready to go to work by 5 or 6am and workout before work....not a fan of public showers and lockers.

One thing I did do is invest in a small workout stepper for my apartment that I can do at home.  Wish I could fit a treadmill in my apartment....but then I would have no space. So I recently purchased a Cardio Twister.

This machine can fit in the corner in my bedroom, I can watch tv while I work out and I will have no excuse for not getting up and doing something, because it is right in my room.  It should be delivered today and I hope I can put it together correctly.  We shall see how this goes.

Oh...weight is going down a little, weighed in yesterday and I was at 288, I need to step it up. 

Weekly Update (promise I will get better)

Okay.....the past couple of weeks have been rough, but I pushed on...not full strength, but made some choices and sticking to a plan.

1. Weight is 290 (lost 2 pounds, not great, but at least I did not go up)
2. I am sticking with being a pescatarian. I love cheese and seafood....just will do in moderation.
3. I worked out about 4 times over the past week....not good, but considering I had a sever sinus infection and was having serious allergy problems (I wanted to peel my eyeballs out) not too bad.
4. I plotted my extension walking path, think it will add a mile to my usual 2-3 mile walk, I will attempt to add until it gets freezing cold.
5. Refrigerator and pantry is stocked with healthy foods....veggies, yogurt, beans, brown rice, and so on.  I just have to cook it and stop eating out every other day (that is better for my health and budget)

I think that is all for now....will try out my new path in the morning and use runkeeper to track the distance.
