WOW EP got a new Face!!!

So I've been slowly loosing some pounds. Not doing anything big but cut out carbs after 3pm and that has really helped me get past my plateau. So, I have been on this horrible pattern of working out for a week and then being on hiatus for a week. Today I woke up again and said I don't feel like working out (I have no excuse, I have a lot of time on my hands, and I'm finally getting some sleep) however I just can't seem to make myself consistently work out. So, I bargained with myself all morning and then I made myself go to the gym and thought if I at least go there and do cardio for 10 minutes, at least I went. So I went and burned only 300 calories on elliptical and only did the inner and outer hip abduction machines and leg extension machine. So, although this is a very very half ass work out for me, I'm proud of myself because it was something other than just staying at home and I'm going to go again tomorrow and hopefully I'll do a better workout, but at least I'm going. For me just getting me to the gym is half the battle.

So new Goal. I'm going to Arizona on October 7th to see my best friend's baby and it will be 85 degrees (whereas in chicago, we are already wearing coats) so I thought I would have 9 more months til I get back into my swimsuit, nope just about 3 weeks. So the goal is 230pounds by the 7th. I will do it!!!

I know what you mean...

I joined a great gym and they have this electronic personal trainer that prints out your routine for you when you visit so it's a no brainer but still I don't go.  lol - my excuse is that they keep it too hot in there in the summer!  I keep thinking more and more about that personal trainer.  It's VERY expensive but maybe if I pay for a months worth only it will kick me in the ass enough to make me want to go...I just don't know.

So, what are you thinking about GH?  So far so good.  Still, I wish they'd have all the old team back.

certain carbs

don't seem to agree with me.....I'm seem to do best when I stay away from bread, corn and potatoes.....but it sure is hard!

Are you getting used to the new EP?

Arizona

I need to move there.  I love chicago, though I know that I would thrive better out there.  I have family out there all crazy though. 

Did you try the Ketchup recipe?  Also remember Fiber is your best friend. 

I hope that you are doing well.
