I did it!
I finally did it. I joined the gym!! Woo! They told me that I could just pay for the month (65) and then when I got enough money I could pay for the rest of the year... which is what I wanted to do. The whole year is only 299. Which is a great price I think. I love paying for the gym upfront, so that the whole year I don't have to worry about not having anywhere to go.
So, for the first workout... treadmill for 30 to get warmed up. I'm going to start the C25K again, since I unfortunately got off the bandwagon because of bad weather here. Then I'll hop on the bike for 20 minutes. Then I'll do a little leg circuit to get back into it. (I love leg day).
You know what's funny, I was just thinking about something my old trainer once said to me. He said, "well, what do you hate doing most when working out" And I said arms and abs. Which is true. Mainly because I am SOOO self concious about my arms. He goes, "okay.. so that's what we're going to concentrate on then" He said," people tend to constantly work on things that they feel comfortable with," But that's true with anything. In art class they used to say the same thing. The teacher would say "okay you can do this project in any medium, and everyone would choose the medium that they were the best at." I think it would have been better if the teacher had said "okay everyone use the medium that they like the least" That would have been a great learning experience..
On a rant... got off topic. ANYWAY... I hate arms. But, my first day back to the gym in a week, I'm not going to do arms. I'll dread it. Then I won't go.
And I had an awful weekend, eating wise. I was so bad. A friend of mine loves to come over and cook dinner and we just hang out and watch a movie. She says that she's on weight watchers, but she's not exactly following the actual plan. She's kind of just "watching" what she eats.. anyway.. it was cold this weekend, and she was craving chicken pot pie. YUM. how can you say no to chicken pot pie? SO good! And then I made brownies on Sunday. I had a couple of those. Friday I had BK... and yesterday I went to my friends house and had chicken fajitas.... BUTTTTT before you say anything... I counted every single thing. I used all my allowance points, but that's okay... I counted!! Thats all that matters. Now, I joined the gym today... and I'm going to be good the rest of the week that's all. I had my fun. haha.
The sun just poked out of the clouds, it's going to be a good day!! Have a great day everyone!
