Cookies Weigh In

Last night was my last workout before the weigh in today. I was really nervous.  Did my curcuit and treadmill for 45 minutes. I was sweating bullets.  All I wanted to do was go home and relax with my dog :) But I kept thinking to myself tomorrow is the day. Tomorrow is the first weigh in on this new journey. So I stuck it out and figured if I am going to sweat, I was going to sweat big to make it worth it.

This morning I have felt great. Im not really sore just normal after a workout. I had my tea this morning and breakfast.  I kept watching the clock the entire time. I knew Brian said he was coming in around 9. 9:30 I hear to the doorbell ring, thinking it was his I got nervous.  It wasn't. Brian shows up around 10 and then it was d-day!

Just kidding.  Stepped on the scale. LOST 6 POUNDS! I am so excited. I lost six pounds in one week.  The healthy way.  I worked out each day for an hour, ate the right food and the right portions and now I have six pounds of this journey gone.  I have had a natural high all day.  I am so excited to see my effort and of course Brian's is paying off.  This was the number I needed to see to push forward. It sucks putting all your effort into something and then get unsatisfying results.

Who knew you didn't have to take pills, or drink so drink but good old fashion working out and eating correctly could make you so happy!

Onwards and upwards! Think Im going to start running tonight to build up my tolerance to running.  Saturday I think I will be going to the Abs Butt and Core class as I love it and it's really helping stabilize my core, back, and strengthen my back.  We all know I have had my share of back problems and I always thought it was the weight. Well it is but those muscles are so weak I need to focus on those.


Well back to work I go just thought I would share my good news!

Happy cookies!
