a pound?

I have lost 1 lb. I guess it's better than nothin! Hopefully if they keep going by Christmas I will have lost 4 lbs. We have still been pretty constitant even though we sleep in some mornings. Sometimes I think I am running up and down the stairs enough that that should count as part of my cardio! I have been pushing my self on the weights at the gym and it feels good. Sore. But good. Now not to gain back that 1 lb during the holiday!

Is a gym, is a gym, is a gym

We have been pretty consistant for about 2 weeks now. It has felt nice even though I am so tired some days I want to just sleep all day and fall into bed every night. But I have been pushing myself and have definitely felt it!
This gym is a lot like the other one, but bigger. It has a pool, a lot more weights, machines, treadmills, elliptical's ect. It is nice because it is bigger, so even if there a quite a few people there it doesn't feel to crowded. But there are the same type of characters. Today I watched a group of (most likely) middle aged body builders instead of collage student body builders. And there is a couple of ladies that always seem to be a little to dressed for 5 am at the gym. But then again I probably look like I just rolled out of bed, and am not there to impress any one. Which is probably a good thing considering most people might be slightly afraid or nauseated at my appearance.
This morning I really wished I had long enough hair just to pull into a pony-tail and go. But that aint happening any time soon :-) So until then I will do my self up just enough to totally scare the whole gym away and kind of giggle at the ones who feel it necessary to cary around lip gloss tucked into the back of her gym shirt...yes that is what one girl does....

yes, yes, I know

I need to update more. I was supposed to use this blog as a get motivated-funny experiences-loosing weight- journal but, uh, well....I guess you could say I'm having a hard time being consistent.
We did start again though, this week. We have moved, mom is doing better, I don't have such a bum knee, we are in a little bit of a routine, and so the journey begins yet again. We go to the AF gym and it's a good gym. Although, I have to get used to the different macho guys, that are a little older and stronger. Not quiet so many mirrors for every one to stare and flex in, but a lot more equipment for everyone to use which equals a little less crowded feeling even thought the place feels HUGE.
I went off my BC and instead of gaining. I am back down to where I started. I can't move my little "ticker" yet though 'cause according to that I haven't lost anything. But I am hoping to be able to loose now that my body has evened out a little bit. So we'll see...
