One month ago I was at my highest weight in years 160!!!! This happened because I ate and drank as I pleased over the holidays.
Down to 154 this morning. calling it early 16 days AF.
Picked up my new running shoes yesterday. Yes they are purple and teal and very pretty!
Looking at joining another gym and putting my current one on hold.
planet fitness only costs $10 a month, they have alot of tred mills and are open 24/7 so that is good. My current gym(reds) closes early on the weekends 8pm and that is when I like to go. Reds costs $61 amonth and I have not been going so that is Depressing and such a waste of money. Since I have not been drinking I can no longer use that as an excuse to not go. I tried to not drink and drive.
When I was training for the 10 k I was using the health club which had more amenities(and is huge!!!!) but the new club has more personalized attention(but is much smaller) and is easier to maneuver thru the machines(30 minute work out area) I might actually use them. I will have to bring a lock to lock up my things which is a bummer, I can do this. If I want to take a shower there I would have to bring my own towel and soap....I don't see doing that when I live 1 mile from there I would just go home. The thing about the circuit training machine area is that I would be sweating then have to take showers more frequently...and you know how I feel about showering.
Jeff wants to join too. We will be going at different times.
I will put my current membership on hold for 3 months(won't have to pay) then decide if I will cancel it permanently. There is a $259 registration fee for reds and I have started 3 times over the 14 years that I have been a member. This new planet fitness gym has an annual member ship fee of $29 dollars collected on June 1st.
With my new shoes and socks in and my not drinking,
I don't have any more excuses not to go and work out.
I will try to go 3 times a week. Maybe more often if I like the 30 minute work out area.
I am excited about going, something new and I will be working toward better over all health and well being.
Tonight is the first nite for mardi gras carnival of parades, floats, bands, and beads! Should be fun!
Fat tuesday is feb 17th the day before ash wednesday which falls early this year.
