My fitness pal

That had to go away.  I was obsessing.

This month has been a little crazy.  I hurt my leg in a fall and with all the christmas cooking, I got off track.

One setback won't get me discouraged.  Time to get back up and move

Day one  15 min step aerobics
day two  The same.

it isn't as much as I was doing but that is ok.  My leg won't let me do a full 20 minutes yet.

This past summer I wore a sz 14
Now I am down to a size 12
My new goal?  a 10!

Can I do it be spring?  Now that is a question I plan on getting an answer to!

Week 2

I re did my measurements last night to make a new moulage.  Well.  Since my measurements are the same, that is going to be easy!  September of last year to November of this year and almost no change.  What few changes there were can be explained by technique.  I'll post changes as I see them.


Monday-  worked in the sewing room.  Lost track of time.  Oops(still a win though!)  great time spent with Hana!
Tuesday- I cleaned the garage.  That was a workout anyone could appreciate!
Wednesday
Thursday- Thanksgiving Holiday  FAMILY TIME!
Friday-
Saturday-

The goal is to move and be healthy.

Truth

This blog is here to help me stay accountable for fitness.  The middle is my middle age spread and thunder thighs.  It is also here to keep it from getting out of hand.

I am or was anorexic.  Let's just say that I have issues with food.  Most people live to eat.  I simply eat to live.  I love the feeling of hunger.  For me it is a sign of success.  One small victory in life.  No, I still don't understand it but it is what it is.

Thanks to my loving husband, I am no longer skeletal thin.  He makes sure I eat at least two meals a day.  Honestly, I do better with about 6 snack sized meals a day than just 2 or 3 meals.  He keeps healthy choices available that he knows I will find irresistible.  Fresh fruit, vegetables and easy to grab protein bars.

How I went from anorexic to obese I am not sure.  One pound at a time.  I have no one to blame other than myself.

My goal is not weight loss.  That would be too close to dieting which leads right back to all the negative self hate of anna.  I am NOT going there.  My goal is healthy.

A healthy body and mind.  

We do not have scales in the house but I will put my most resent weight here.  In June, before we left Idaho my weight on the scales at the gym was 194 lbs.  Last weekend on my grandmothers scales 184.  I am not sure how accurate her scales are but I do know I have lost.  My size 14 jeans went from tight to baggy and now my 12s are fitting looser.  I have mommy frump butt after just a few hours of wearing them.

I'll post before pics when I have the band width to do it.  For now here is what I have done so far.

Sunday- Travel day
Monday-Rest
Tuesday-P90X Disk one warm up
Wednesday- rest  (my Dragon of a husband insisted that i needed another day of rest)
Thursday-15 min on the step
Friday-
Saturday-

I will fill in the other two days when they get here.  Short term I would like make sure I move every day.  Make fitness a part of my daily routine.  That is going to be the hard part.  Once it is a habit, the hardest part is done.
