Well its been a heck of a past two weeks that's for sure! I got INSANELY sick, followed by leaving for vacation (while I was still sick!) I have finally kicked it - thank God - but it definitely waylaid my plans for a little bit. I haven't done my workout Yoga since my last post, so I have to start all over for endurance on that, BUT, I didn't completely blow my vacation.
I went to Montana. The lifestyle there is just completely different from what it is in Atlanta. That and the weather is significantly better. As much as I would love to say I was out hiking and mountain climbing, that would be a total lie. But I wasn't completely sedentary either. We took my oldest daughter to the fair and walked around there, and we went to a Farmer's Market, which was fantastic. I basically did something just about every day which is a lot more than I usually do. I weighed myself too. I am officially at 244 lbs now. I wanted to hit 242, but being sick for a week and not working out definitely killed it. This week I'll hit it though!
While I was there, my cousin told me all about her FITBIT. I looked it up and ordered one because I was so impressed with it. Its certainly not cheap by any means - 100 bucks! - but its worth it! It measures steps (like a pedometer) every day, total distance travelled, calories burned (with its built in accelerometer), stairs climbed, and even tracks sleep patterns! Its super easy to wear, and provides a lot of motivation because its visual PROOF that I'm lazy! It should be here by the end of this week I hope. It also has a great website and forums that come with it, to meet up with other people like us that want to lose weight too.
The steps are all falling into place. This is my year.
