Fighting

10 months now...
Sept 13 was my last post. It has been too long. I worked hard on the elliptical. I started doing Jillians 30 day shred. I wasn't working out every night but was doing at least 3 ifd not more nights a week. I was better about my eating and tracking. And yet I was still staying in the same spot.

New track. I decided I would alter my carb intake. Not doing the whole Atkins no carb/super low carb. But just lower than what I had been doing. And it started working! I am now down to 205. 3 lbs. At least it is 3 though.

Then a week/two weeks ago I came across a Groupon for one month of boot camp classes for $20. I started yesterday. I love it! It is awesome! I love the trainer. I love the workouts. I am hurting like hell. Yesterday I even almost puked. But I still think it is awesome. And the best part is it is in the morning. I have said all along I love morning workouts best. just couldn't figure out how to do them at home. If I wake early then I end up waking the kids. But now I just drop them off at daycare 20 minutes earlier and go to class.

I wish I could continue on after this month is over. I just can't see how it will be possible. Even paying the $20 for one month I had to think about. There is no way I can afford $247/month (or $197 if I commit to a year). I don't think I could even swin $100/month. But for now I will just live in the moment and enjoy this next month. And hopefully I will kick this plateau and get back to where I can do this at home on my own.

Actually, there is a gym opening by my house. They are $10/month. I think I will join once they do open. And I can just take the kids early to daycare and go work out. And maybe they will have a class I can take too. (Classes are included in the $10) I just have no idea when they are going to open. :-/ they have been gutting and rebuilding the building for the past 2 months and it doesn't look close to being done yet. I will just have to wait and see. Fingers crossed.
