Not just another rededication to fitness

I have done it so many times. Start. Stop. Only to start up again a few months later.

I am so unhappy with my body. I received an invitation to a contest for 12-week transformations and I went for it. Bought the e-book (still reading and digest all the info) and sent in my "before" picture.

I was surprised to see myself now on the challenge website. Talk about accountability!!

Here it is...

Scroll down to the bottom and I am the first one and certainly the fattest woman by far...

Having that horrid display of my body should keep me motivated to follow the eating and exercise plan. Hopefully, my feet will hold up.

A new dedication

Ok, it's been nearly three months since my last blog. I am up to 230 and I hate it. I've hurt my feet with plantar fascitis and sometimes every step is like walking on bruises. So, I guess I overdid it. So now I have to rethink what I want to do about exercise. I guess I can't do cardio everyday at 230, it's too hard on my body at my current weight.

I am going to make myself accountable to do an hour of cardio three times a week. I think I can manage that. Strength every other day, maybe. Not sure.

I have a day of cardio for tomorrow. Hopefully my feet will survive two cardio classes in one day. Turbo R32 and HHH out in Stockton.

Tomorrow is going to be a rush. Up early to a pancake breakfast, parade, two cardio classes and home. One hour drive each way to and from the cardio class. Busy day! And it's supposed to rain.

Not real happy with the results from NS this go around. Food tastes better, but results have not been as good this time. I have maintained since I hurt my feet. Hoping that if I take it slow on exercise that I can increase my loss. It just sucks that I was 191 before Tuck was conceived and I can't seem to get anywhere close this time out.

So frustrating!
