Today was weigh day, and after going three days where I was literally unable to sit and pee in peace throughout the ENTIRE day, let alone workout I wasn't too sure how it would go.
So I weighed myself last night after my workout so I wouldn't be too shocked this morning if there wasn't much of a change, or if there was a bad change...
Weigh in(this morning): 293.2 :) That's a 3.4 lbs loss this week :) 6.8 lbs lost all together now since I started about 4 weeks ago :)
I did my ultimate ball workout last night (FINALLY) and I have decided the changes that have happened so far are amazingly stellar. The first time around, when I did the ultimate ball workout, I felt like I was dying, I remember this specific workout I was so emotional through, the last time. You have to understand, I.am.clumsy. I have very weak balance, I run into walls, I trip on my own feet, I constantly end up with bruises on my arms and legs from literally running into random things. So working with a fitness/stability ball, it takes A LOT of effort from me, it takes more balance and STABILITY then I think I even have. But this workout was better, still trying, but not as emotional. I didn't feel as weak doing it this time around and I had a clearer head. I really didn't want to, I even posted an entire status on facebook complaining about not wanting to work out. Then I did it any way!! That's life.. and before I knew it, it was over, I was done and I felt WONDERFUL!
Sometimes working out is a chore, it IS a task, sometimes lazy and relaxing sounds better.
SOUNDS, being the key word, because it wont be better, it wont make you feel better, it wont help you be better, it's not better. Get that work out in, you will love yourself even more for it!
I'm glad that I lost a few lbs this week, it shows to me that you are allowed to falter, you are allowed to struggle with this journey, it's okay! We all get busy, we all have SOME lazy days... but like the quote says "you didn't gain it all over night, you wont lose it over night either" Same applies to a few days, you wont screw up all the progress you've made in a day or 2 as long as you jump right back on track, it's when you screw up a day or 2 and then decide to keep screwing up until you've gained the weight all back & feel awful.
So I thought it might be fun to poll any one who reads this, leave a comment & tell me what you do to workout? Are you working a program? Do you just use dvd's? Do you do your own thing? Run? Gym? And if you've tried multiple things what has worked best for you, or what do you like more?
Just for fun :)
