So, most everyone knows by know that I started a boot camp. A basic kick my booty boot camp. I need to get back to where I was 5 years ago. There should be no excuses!!! I was in weight lifting and loved it by far! I love the people, I loved the hurt! I loved what I felt like when I was done!! Of course during it sometimes I was saying not so nice things because well you have to work like no other, and you always always push your self to the next level!
So i started on February 15th, that's right I by no means started at January New Years Resolution kick off. I for one, think that's nuts to target that day to make the rest of your year the greatest. See me and the husband we have a goal list we keep hanging on our bulletin board in the laundry room ( by the way great place to keep it) we have goals forever and everyday no matter what. Second I believe only 95 percent of people actually do what they say they WANT to do for the following year. Third again, I don't want some pressure to make some huge resolution and then well not do it. Because lets face it we have to want something, and most of us where pretty "spirited" New Years and woke up not thinking of the one thing in the world we wanted to do, but "oh man, I'm getting to old for this!! " and then we make some rash decision of what our New Years goal was.
So I didn't do that this year....okay my resolution was " to do what I want to do", Yep that's it. I want to make sure that no matter what I do end up doing that it was because I wanted to!! But as far as the usual goals people make I didn't.
So I started my weight lose battle Feb 15th by buying a scale! Yes a stinking scale, I don't like it one bit!! But I'll say my favorite part was when the husband stepped on it and then later came running into the room and said, " it doesn't work, it's wrong and it keeps changing" OH MY GOSH! I truly wish it were true and that it was really broken. But it's not! and the changing part well that's from us having to bend over more closely to RE READ what it says! Yeah not pretty People, But on another note very very helpful cause it makes you not want to eat a darn thing. It's the devil and the perfect diet all in one!
I also started by changing what goes into my mouth. Again not fun, I love to cook so I love to try new things, but most of all I love eating them because they taste soooo good!! Ice cream out, chocolate out, soda's out, anything fast food out, cookies out, BROWNIES out (so sad), pasta a dear friend of mine, teas cut down, coffee major cut down, water stinks, and the most saddest one of all CHEESE! I don't know if I've ever been sadder, sounds nuts that's okay, but I love cheese, I even love burnt cheese! YES! I dropped my calorie intake, I think I'm secretly starving !! But amazingly I don't feel like crap when I'm done eating lunch, and heart burn hasn't paid a visit since, so we are off to an okay start.
The boot camp on the other hand, HURTS! it hurts my arms, my legs, my butt, my stomach, and my fingers....my toes are a bit achy today. I know I know it will continue to go away each time I do it you say! NO it won't because once again I push myself each time and do alittle more, and add something else to my workout day. I don't wanna be stuck anymore, I didn't ask for this to happen to me, it's a punishment for me allowing me to be where I was when it all started jumping the line to get first dibs on my hips and where ever else it thought might be cozy. So I'm going to work it, amazing that it takes twice as much time or more to get something off that took a second to get on. Kinda like pants or socks you take your time putting them on in the morning but by bed time those things fly off like no one's business cause you can't wait to jump in bed and go to sleep! okay that one was a little back wards but you know what I"m saying!!
My arms hurt, and I think my hurt, hurts! We are suppose to work in the garden tomorrow and I'm thinking great work out with out working out! Cool, I like different things, but then I just tried to scratch the back of my arm with the other hand, actually while I'm writing this and somehow I got muscles in the back of my arms that I don't think have been awake for several years and that stinking hurts! SO the garden will be interesting tomorrow, my job is pulling weeds!! WEEDS a whole giant village of them!!
So I"m thinking I"m going to go stretch and relax before tomorrow!
