Wednesday Weigh In

Another week has passed by and I still weigh the some.  This is starting to get repetitive.  I have worked out so much this week that my muscles are extremely sore.  You would think that I would see a difference on the scale, but I'm not.  I hae noticed that my double chin is smaller, but that isn't much of a difference. 

In other news, I have started running again.  I had forgotten how much I love it.  My body feels so good after a run.  I'm not running fast or far.  I run a little over a mile (around my block twice).  I'm trying to do it 3-4 times a week, but we've had a lot of snow and ice.  I don't want to hurt myself running on ice. 

Are there any exercises that are good substitutes for running when I can't run outside?

Julianne Hough's Workout

Self.com posted Julianne Hough's workout with resistance bands. 

Check it out.  The moves seem pretty easy and quick to do.  I tried them this morning and it is a good work out.  I don't normally use resistance bands, so it was a good way to mix up my daily workout.

Wednesday Weigh In

I'm so sick of gaining weight.   I don't know what I am doing wrong.  I'm eating well and exercising.  I'm at a loss about what to do. 

I don't know what else to do.  I'm so frustrated.  Ugh.  Any tips?

Wednesday Weigh In

Today I learned that I gained one pound.  It's not that bad.  Last week I had the flu, so I knew that my weight loss was from not eating and, thus, only temporary. 

It was the worse flu of my life.  I still feel queasy once in a while.

Since my body is still getting back to normal, I hope that next week I will start losing weight again.  The weather has been nice, so I've started running again.  My muscles are sore, but I think I can stick with it.

Lose a pants size workout

If you do this, you are supposed to lose a pants size.  It doesn't say how long it will take, but I would guess a month or so.

Yeah, no. Don't put me down for cardio.

I need this shirt.

Today I weighed in and it said that I have lost several pounds.  Of course, I also have the flu, so I don't think that the weight loss is real.  I haven't exercised in days and can't keep food down, but I feel really skinny.  My waist looks like I have lost an inch or two.  Naturally, I'm sure all of this is just temporary, but hopefully it will motivate me to lose more weight when I feel better.
