I’m going to be sore in the morning.  It’s the first good workout in close to a year.  In fact, I may have over did it.  I’m still way under what I used to do on the treadmill but I’ve got to start somewhere.  I’m really disappointed in myself for getting back into the same old routine and not exercising like I should.  I’ve gained 35 lbs that I’ve already lost once and that really makes me mad.  Maybe this time around I’ll stick to it and make the changes permanently.  It is a lifestyle change, not just a diet.

This year has been full of “New Beginnings” and not all of them have been all that good.  I refuse to concentrate on the negatives and I’m trying to focus on all of the positives.  Last year started off really bad and I was hoping that this year would be somewhat better.

My dieting hasn’t been very productive and I haven’t started exercising like I wanted and it’s already February.  It just seems like there is always something preventing me from getting on the trainer or the treadmill.  I’m always finding excuses and it’s always “I’ll do it tomorrow.  I’ve lost 40 lbs in about four months two years ago and I know I can do it again it’s just getting started that’s the trouble.

I’ve got my first photoshoot tomorrow afternoon so my plan is to get up early, get on that treadmill for at least thirty minutes then get my day started.  I need to set up a goal to reward myself for every so many pounds I lose.  It needs to be something that I really enjoy, not food, and that it will be worth losing the weight other than my health. Any suggestions?  I was thinking that every 20 pounds I would reward myself with something.

The above picture is of a couple that I shot for their engagement.  It’s been over a year since they’ve been married and now she is currently pregnant and not doing to good. She’s in her final trimester and the poor girl has been sick since she’s gotten pregnant. She’s a sweet young lady and I’m sure she’ll be a great mother.  After this one she’ll probably not get pregnant again. lol

It’s the weekend.  I hope everyone has a great weekend and I hope you get to spend time with your loved ones.

I posted back in December that I was starting over.  It didn’t work.  I failed.  Just too many food items to contend with.  I decided to start again with the new year.  Today is the 2nd day of my diet and I’ve done pretty well.  I’ve kept my calories down below 2000 but my steps have not been up to par.  I’m going to work on that. I haven’t lost any weight yet but that’s because I haven’t exercised to amount to anything.  I’m looking at my treadmill and I just can’t get excited about it.  I just can’t wait until warmer weather so I can get out and ride my bike.  I hate being cold.  Next week winter will officially hit here in the deep south.  It will be in the single digits come Monday and Tuesday morning. I shiver just thinking about it.

I can’t wait until these holidays are over.  I have no will power and I’m eating everything I can get my hands on.  I’ve pretty much given up on my diet until after Christmas.  After then it’s back on my trainer or treadmill..  I have my lab work in February so I’ve got to do something.
