Busted my tail tonight!!

I read a quote that said
"Train insane or remain the same." I love that. Tonight I did 30 minutes on the elliptical and 30 minutes of total body weights. I feel great!! I managed to do plank on my toes (normally I wimp out and do it on my knees), did lots of arms, legs, and core work. I'd like to start weight training on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. Tomorrow is zumba and yoga, one if my most favorite days of the week! I love getting into the rhythms and feel so powerful and sexy when I've managed to keep up through 45 minutes of intense dancing.

Change of plans

I realized last night that I would never read a blog where all the person talked about was the calorie count in their food. I know I want to discuss my plans and goals, but I can't do that if I haven't spelled them out. So here goes.

Goals:
1. Lose 5 pounds in January. This will be accomplished by working out 5 days per week for at least 45 minutes each day and tracking my food on Spark People.
2. Meditate for 5 minutes each day, at a minimum.
3. Do something creative for 5 minutes each day. I have found a love for making jewelry, and it makes me deliciously happy to see what I can come up with. Time to increase my happiness!

What are your goals?

Time to recharge

I have been stuck with my weight loss. I have been floating around 297 for about a month. My lowest weight was 289, and that was before Thanksgiving. Rather than let myself get depressed, I am going to recharge. I have been reading and I love her enthusiasm. I love how excited she seems to be about her weight loss, but also I love how real she is. She's posted frustrations, goals, and experiences. I think that is what I need to start doing next. I need to be held accountable, and I think this blog is where that will start. For the next week, I'm going to post everything I've eaten, along with the calorie count, and my exercise plans each and every day. So here goes nothing.
