Day 8: Biking

My fiance's birthday yesterday was a success! I made him dinner, we biked so that he could play pokemon, got ice cream and came back home to watch Parks and Rec. Today was definitely a better workout, and good thing too because we didn't eat so great. We biked over 10 miles and burnt a …

Day 7

Today was definitely not one of my best days for working out. However, I could have stayed in bed feeling depressed but I didn't. I got up, got myself together and used the elliptical for 15 minutes. It wasn't a long time because some guy was in there and that stuff always makes me nervous...but …

Day 5

So my friend and I were actually productive at the gym! I feel really good about today and have been on an extreme high. I feel productive, happy and motivated. I have noticed that I have not been as fatigued or undergone bad IBS problems since I've been eating healthier. My mind and gut appear …

Day 4

I jumped on the elliptical for 30 minutes and then did about 5 minutes of abs. End scene. Definitely not a winner of a gym day, …

Day 2 of working out

So if you guys had read my previous blog, I mentioned that I hadn't been to the gym in 6 days because I was sick. However, today I was able to get to the gym for a little under an hour. I jogged for 20 minutes (1.22 miles) and then performed 15 minute and 11 …

Off to a great start :P

So not really, but I didn't want a negative title. Basically, because I'm still sick and have a fever, I couldn't go to the gym. Instead, I did some 6 minute abs and a few arm exercises. Nothing particularly fancy. My diet also consisted of mainly jello, popsicles, and a peanut butter sandwich. I also …

Tracking my Exercise Routine

So I thought it would be fun, and also motivational for myself, to blog about my health and fitness process. I'm really excited to try this and, hopefully, this will keep me on track loosing weight and eating healthy. I want to start with at least twice a week and work my way up. I'll …
