It's been a little over a week since I saw the doctor and three days since I started the exercise program. Yesterday was my first solo day on exercise and I think I did well.
10 minutes on the elliptical
10 minutes of core strengthening
30 minutes of resistance training for legs and lower body
I was feeling great when I left the gym.
Now, I was also feeling great right after I got there....wanna know why? I LOST 11 LBS BITCHES!!!!!!!!!!
I was so jazz hands I'm not even sure if I walked or floated over to the exercise equipment....I'm probably going to become one of those annoying people that tells everyone they meet they lost 11 lbs.
Here's the funny part............I've become completely OCD about the gym. Seriously. The broadband here at the house was acting wonky and so I called to have a tech come out and look at it. They scheduled him for this morning between 8 am and 10am. I was sitting here at 9 am thinking to myself that he wasn't going to show and I could have been at the gym and that if I missed today it would be the start of a downhill slide.
I'm going to become that guy...you know the one. He's in Starbucks in a button down shirt with the sleeves ripped out so you can see his bulging biceps and all he talks about is his oxygen depth, squat capacity, and how much he can bench...I'm going to become that guy. And someone may have to hurt me for it. |

Went to the doc today to start the weight loss journey. I've gained quite a bit of weight in the last year due to circumstances that required my attention. I now feel as if I have the ability and time to put forth some effort as far as taking care of my own health. I started with going to the doc just to make sure I was okay to do what needed to be done, exercise, diet, relearning how to eat.
Dr. Mejia's plan started me with 800 calories a day with 20g of carbohydrates, 20 g of fat, and 100 g of protien....this sounds like a challenge. I will also be starting Monday to work with a fitness consultant at the YMCA on the advice of my dear friend Jody.
If you are a close friend or family, you know what my weight is now...I don't feel like sharing it with the general public. I will do this and I will be free of the weight that currently holds me back. |

Today I had to meet with the weight loss doctor to discuss my options for becoming a better me. When he weighed me, I came in a little over where I thought I was and it hit me like a ton of bricks......I just didn't need another spur in my saddle. I know how to roll with the punches, so I put on my big girl panties and dealt with it.
I have the plan and start tomorrow.
I also spoke with a friend who is a fitness instructor and asked her advice about exercise....her best advice was "take it in small bites."
That is my goal, small bites....chew well, move up when you are comfortable. |
