How do you eat an elephant?
One bite at a time.
How do you get down to your goal weight?
One bite at a time.
I have made a point to try new things when it comes to exercising. One day we went to the nature trails and walked 3 miles. Yesterday I jogged a mile and lifted weights. I still do pilates 1-2 days a week. Oh, and I bought a jump rope. Have you tried jump roping as an adult? MUCH, much harder than it used to be. After 5 mins I was ready to yell "Mercy!"
I'm not sure how much weight I lost last week. My guess is 3-4 lbs. I worked out hard, y'all! My scale broke and I didn't get around to buying a new one until Saturday. The new scale weighs me less than the old scale, so Im not sure if it's the scale or if I really lost a gazillion lbs.
My goals are to continue working out hard 4-5 days a week. To push myself out of my comfort zone. I'm not just getting back in my pre-preg skinny jeans, Im getting into a smaller pair. I've got the fire in my belly and it's going to happen. Stay tuned!

The other day, I had a craving for jumping rope. (can people get cravings for jumping rope? I just really wanted to do it.) Lets just say it did not end well, and I have a giant bruise on my shin. I'm glad it worked out better for you!! Keep up the hard work!
ReplyDeleteMrsJoe, I *may* have left out the part where I tripped 3 times :) I didn't want to be the only one who struggled to jump rope. Haha
ReplyDeleteWow that is amazing! For some reason I seem to have hit a stopping point for now. I need to figure out how to push past it though!
ReplyDeleteGreat post! Keep up the good work!

Heidi, the comments on your blog are not working? Anyway, GREAT job! You are doing awesome!!
ReplyDeleteWow, keep up the good work! I just had a really bad week as far as nutrition and exercise go. Time to get back on the wagon!
ReplyDeleteSarah & Sam - you can both do this. All of us can! You are strong beautiful women and that scale doesn't stand a chance against you. :) good luck! Let me know next week how this week goes!
ReplyDeleteNow I want to jump rope! I would probably break my ankle though :). Way to go with keeping up the routine!
