New workout program

So, it has been a while since my last post, but that doesn't mean I have been slacking off.  I ordered a new workout program...Ten Minute Trainer, from Beach Body,  I have not broken down and bought the shakeology that goes with it, because I'm happy with the GNC shakes.

So back to my story...
I bought the Ten Minute trainer (TMT) and LOVE it.  I have on,y been using it for about a week, but I can really tell a difference in my strength,  about a month or so back, I originally borrowed ACL-workers TMT and liked it, but never had the money to order my own.  I finally got the money, and I'm glad I bought it.  It came with 3 different resistance bands and some other freebies I haven't used yet, but I'm looking forward to the different workouts.  I am hopeful this will not get as boring as the other DVDs I have had for a long time.

I have been on track with my diet, and although I'm still obsessed with the scale, I can see the number getting smaller.  I am positive that I will make my 5 pound weight loss goal, this month.

Already October..

It is already October, and I realize I didn't make my goals for September...so I will create new goals for October.

From my FB page http://www.facebook.com/Tryintogetfit?ref=tn_tnmn. 

Ok, I didn't do so hot with my goals last month, but that doesn't mean I give up!  Nope!  New Month; New Goals!
1)  Lose 5 pounds
2) Work out 5 days a week
3) eat more fruit
4) 5 minute plank
I'm sticking with the same principle, but a little lighter on the numbers.  I think I was overwhelmed with the original September goals and that didn't help me.  And I'm going to get to the 5 minute plank.
I will keep everyone posted on how I'm doing. 

I spent the last week in sunny Cali, and the morning after I get home to Alaska, there is snow on the ground!  How crazy!  Winter is coming and I need to really get motivated and reach my goals.  

Anyway...while I was in sunny Cali, I worked out, used the weights, and weighted myself with the scale at the hotel.  There was such a HUGE difference between the two umbers...just goes to show the number doesn't mean anything. I officially lost 1 pound the last two weeks, but it is a loss, and not a gain, so ill take it.  In an effort not to concentrate solely on the number on the scale, I pulled down some jeans from the closet that I have been hoarding a pond guess what, they FIT! They are a little snug, but Incan zip them, and they FIT!  Also, I think resizing my wedding ring will be a necessity soon.  

Well, I think that catches me up, sorry for being MIA, but life happens.  Happy October to everyone.
