and another one down....
204.2. wow. at christmas I weighed a whopping 228 pounds (the heaviest I've ever been in my life). i never thought i could get out of the 200's but yet i am getting ever so close! Portion sizes have been key, but also getting active. Here is what i've done/am doing this week:
Saturday - planted flowers and other yard work (about 4 hours)
Sunday - walked a couple of miles
Monday - rode 12 miles (1 hour) on stationary bike
Tuesday - walked a couple of miles
Wednesday- ride several miles on the Orange Beach trails
Thursday - basketball (1 hour)
Friday - walk a couple of miles
Saturday - kayaking
In addition to the above i do 3 sets of 100 situps each day and therapy exercises for a weak ACL. I am going to continue this schedule for a couple of more weeks then change up some things.
My husband is so proud of how hard i have worked - he told me that when i have reached my first MAJOR goal i set (to get out of the 200's), the family is going to a Braves game as a reward. I love the Braves (so does my boys so they are really cheering me on! lol)!
