2.2 Miles???

What was I thinking???? But I made it!!! Walking/running with a group gives me motivation and it helps push me. If I was walking by myself trust walk would have ended at 1 mile! Will I push myself today? I play kickball with kids tonight, but I'd schedule permits I might can get 1-2 miles in......JESUS!!!!!

Zumba!!

Yesterday was my second time at Zumba, JESUS!!! I survived. But not sure if my arms did :-/ I enjoy the class, it gives me variety in my workout. And considering I have no rhythm it can be quite funny!!! My Zumba instructor is 8 months pregnant! She puts us all to shame.....but she is a great instructor.  Each night after Zumba I try to post a picture of me smiling, why? To remember despite the pain I still have to smile. Below is yesterday's pic.

Also.....In my head I was going to try to bake a peach cobbler recipe I had recently found...would so defeat the purpose of working out, but I love to bake and try new recipes.  But my body was so tired did not even attempt :-/ Lesson learned.

Over a Year!!!

Yes I am a slacker :-(  Blogging has been a challenge for me.....working out even a bigger challenge :-/ But.....after a recent doctor's appointment I have to step my game up.  Blood pressure was good, thyroid was good, cholesterol was good, diabetes.....do not have it, but if I continue on the path that I am going I will.  Considering both of my grandmothers had it, I really do not want to go down that path.....

So what am I doing about it??? Well.....

1. Eating less out (helps with budget too, so it is a win-win)
2. Workout plan, switching things up and not getting bored.
3. Taking it one day and one meal at a time...
4. It is about health not weight. 
5. Goal is to work out 3-4 times a week, alternating with workout classes, walking, and weights. 

So this is the plan.....started this week, so we shall see :-)
