It's like that chick who did the e-harmony i like cats video and the song that followed shortly thereafter.
My sister has really gotten on the dieting/exercising bandwagon and it's annoying to see her progress and loss when I have stayed the same/gained. So, here I am... again.
I went to a 5k today... the last time I went was when my husband and I were newly dating and I was his cheerleader. Today he did it again and I again, was the cheerleader. Just 50 pounds heavier. The ironic thing is that he is currently 50 pounds heavier as well.
I went to the doctor the other day and got the results. My liver, cholestoral, and blood pressure are terrible for someone my age. That's pretty fing pathetic if you ask me.
I really need to take a good hard look at how I'm living my life and how it will affect me in the future. I am setting a three month goal of losing 15 pounds, which doesn't sound like much at all, but when I've failed for so long I need to try something doable. Especially during the holidays.
We went and bought a exercise bike today off of craigslist. We've been watching a lot of tv lately because my job is super stressful and tiring so when we get home that's pretty much all we do. This way I can at least log some time on the bike and relax at the same time.
I also need to cut out drinking and stop eating out. THose two are my biggest vices. So for the next three months I'm making the promise to myself and to this blog that I'll follow through with some sort of plan and work hard at it in order for it to become habit. I have a lot at stake, it's really important that I just get my act together.
Goal for this week:
-Ride the bike for at least 10 minutes every day
-Go on 2-3 walks with the hub
-Take the stairs instead of the elevator at least 5 times/day
-Drink more water and less booze
-Go to bed earlier
-Wake up earlier
-Use my shake-weight
-Blog more
It's not so much the eating part, it's the drinking and the lack of exercise. I get bored at night so by finding some sort of activity to do that helps me relax would be good.
I feel like I've probably burned any readers I ever had with this blog and it's totally my bad. I keep saying I'll stick with it, and then I don't. My sister's birthday is tomorrow, and mine is in 4 months, so as a present to her I'll work on getting my shit together and taking better care of myself.
