Week 3

Week 3 started with a severe thunderstorm threatening my workout. I rushed home to change from work and flew as quickly as I could to the gym so that I would not get drenched. Luckily the room in which I was stumbling over my own two feet trying to do Group Groove* in, didn’t lose power so the instructor had the whole HOUR to torture me and remind me once again, I am not that skinny girl I used to be. 

*Note: doing cardio choreographed dance moves when you are 100 pounds over weight is quite difficult and you should check with a licensed physician before attempting; he may need to slap you across the face for even considering it!

If you do not know what Group Groove is follow this link it is a video trailer for the release I attempted last Monday night. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eg6F-iZCihc

Last week proved more difficult for me. I only made it to the gym twice, because I had some last minute changes to plans that gave me a reason to make it hard to go the gym. I also had some friends over on Sunday and even though I stayed under my calorie count for the day, I ate way more food then I should have.

Monday morning I stopped by a local fast food place to grab some coffee and the sun was glistening off this ad.

It really bothered me. America has gotten so out of control with everything needing to be BIG. SUPER. EXTRA. But then society expects us to be small, tiny, thin. Even at the gym while exercising on the treadmill I watch commercial after commercial of fast food junk mind control. I think I may also have to give up TV in my new lifestyle.

I felt I needed a little extra “Ummphfff” of inspiration so I purchased a beautiful maxi dress. The dress is in my goal size. And damn it one day I will fit in it!!!!

Well here are my stats for this week.
