ok so as far as the blog goes, lets face it the only thing I am doing constant is not being constant ... lol  hey but I am not giving up :D


So yesterday I met with my trainer.  I joked with him that he was going to kill me.  He promised that I would be breathing when I left.  I did advise him that if they had to take me out on a gurney in an ambulance I would still be breathing but it's not how I wanted to leave.  


We actually took it pretty easy the first day.  We did a few test to see where I needed to go from here.  I am glad there was no right or wrong answer lol.  The stepping I was ok with .... sort of.  Then this crazy man told me we (meaning ME) were going to do some push ups.  HE only did two.  I did my two and stopped, he made me keep going.  So far doesn't sound to fair ... lol  I did advise him that I had not even attempted a push up since Jr High and it wasn't pretty then.  I could see I was not getting out of this.


Then for the sit ups.  I am ok with this part.  I sit up all the time.  He informed me that he meant to exercise ... Oh :X ... I did ok with them ... nope not gonna tell ya many I did, but it was more than one and less than 100 :D


He's pretty cool.  I have known him for several years and he and his wife are really dedicated to fitness.  He is helping me with my "diet" I know I know its a life style change ... but for all purposes right now its a diet.  We are going to be tweaking some of the things I have been doing and see if I can get past this wall I am at right now.  


I hate hitting these walls.  Seems like every 20-25 lbs I have hit a wall.  I know that right now it is partly because I have not been working on it like I need to but we are getting over this wall.  I love how "we" means ME!! :D


Today not much to say about it.  I had the good ole stand by of oatmeal for early morning (5:30 AM)  and by 9:30 on my break I was hungry.  I am so glad out cafeteria started serving breakfast again.  It's probably the only time I can really find a healthy choice.  Bacon an eggs with salsa.  Mmm Mmm good.  Lunch I had fish. Yeah I used some tarter sauce, but it just tasted better that way.  I had steamed veggies to go with so I did good.  "dinner" was oatmeal.  I didn't feel like cooking.  the kids were gone and I had photo work to get done.  This was a quick and easy choice to keep me going.


Nope I didn't make it to the gym today.  I did take the stairs every time ... noooo only up once but down every time lol.  I am still parking at the back of the parking lot.  I will get back on track with the gym ... it is working now .. I got this... who's gonna join me?
