Exercising... a time consuming necessity.

Next on the list is… exercise.  I know I know, I talk about getting out and walking and how I want to start an exercise program blah blah blah but this time I’m doing it!  Weight loss is at a stand still and I need to jump start it again... this will help me burn more calories, tone up and help me get my groove back!
It really shouldn’t be hard to do… if you think about it, I’m already spending a couple hours  a day exercising when you take into account, all the typing, walking to the kitchen to refill my icey water, yawning & stretching.  Adding an exercise program will probably add another hour or two a day… sigh… losing weight is quite the time consuming activity.
Between the exercise, time spent preparing healthy foods and other daily necessities, my free time is shrinking… shrinking, shrinking….

You're doing what?

That's right... I'm blogging.  This is my latest attempt to lose weight and hold myself accountable - no holds barred... Throughout my blog I'll be going over things like, why I'm fat, reasons I want to lose weight, my plans to lose weight and the crazy adventures that go with it all.  Want to ride along with me? Grab a drink & get comfy cause here we go... Phew, a little nervous here... I'm about to lay it all out on the line, about to do something NO woman does or at the very least likes to do.  I'm giving you my stats... I don't want to, but I have to.  I mean really, how will you know that I'm improving and on track if we don't have a starting point to measure from right?  It's not the heaviest I've ever been (yeah I know) but it's enough to make you say, ddddaaaammmmnn! Day one STATS... Starting Weight: 303 pounds (it's mostly boob) Goal Weight: 175 pounds Weight to Lose: 128 pounds (Holy crap!) Goal Rate of Loss:

Cinnabon Delights...

I’ve spent the week preparing for a new lifestyle of clean eating, researching, making lists etc… then Friday happened.   Usually the best day of the week right?   Still is, but let me tell ya – today was a bitch.   A bitch in heat.   Seemed no matter what I did, I was gonna get screwed… definitely was not a productive day. It started out with not having enough time to put together my lunch… something that will be changing with this new healthy lifestyle adventure.   So you know what that means… make a run for the border.   So the three musketeers piled in the car and away we went… As we stood there gazing at the menu I thought this would be a good time to try something new… so I got the same thing I always do. ;-)    My go to meal at Taco Bell is known as the T6 around these here parts… beef please, or at least as much beef as the FDA will allow you to get away with before throwing other non-beef crap in there.   So the usual 2 gorditas and a crunchy taco it was… which alwa

Zoom Zoom Zumba!

I had the opportunity to try something tonight that I’ve been wanting to do for months now – Zumba!  It was a tossup between that and Jazzercise, which I’m thinking are fairly closely related. ZUMBA is a trade name for a dance fitness program created by dancer and choreographer Perez in Colombia during the 1990s. The program combines Latin and international music with dance in an effort to make exercise fun. (Thanks Wikipedia)  So how did I like it?  Well…. Let’s clear the air right now, it was fun & I liked it… that’s it, plain and simple.  You won’t ever hear or see me get excited about anything that makes me move for 50 minutes straight, sweat like a pig and smell like one too!  Whether it is Zumba, Jazzercise, moving furniture etc… it’s just not going to make me jump up and down and say WooHoo!  But it’s necessary… if I want to get my old svelte pole dancing body back, I must exercise, and I must sweat in the process… It’s just one of those things you don’t want to do but ha
