Day 1

So, this all started when I ordered a dress online. I've said it a lot lately, but my mind and body have disagreements about the size that I wear. I can't zip the dress up all of the way. So, I'm determined to get the dress to fit and all of the clothes that have gotten tighter over the past couple years.

 Today is the first day that I really worked out in a long time. The first time since high school that I have done any real weight training. I have been thinking about it for a while, and Angela proved to be the motivation that I needed to get up and do it. I went to 4BFitness with Angela and I will be joining soon, later this week I hope. We did a good workout, just the two of us and a very built trainer-man. I learned what Piston Presses, Goblet Squats, and Burpees are. (Burpees aren't as scary as Angela made them out to be)
 I can feel the workout tonight, but I think that I could push a little harder as I start going more. Aparently today was a good day to start, so we will see how much harder it gets from here.

My top heartrate was 195, and my average was 170.
Also I burned 600 Calories! That is more than a Whopper Junior!
