Caught up with me I guess

Well, all the pigging out finally caught up with me and I only lost .2 lbs this week. With as much eating as I was doing I was very afraid that I would gain weight instead of losing it, so I guess .2 lb loss is better than a gain. It is still a process and a struggle everyday. I am just so glad it is starting to stay daylight longer. I think it will help me improve my mood and get me out of the winter funk. It is time to start exercising again I just have to find the motivation to do so. I think I left it in 2011 though. Ugh! This week I am going to start psyching myself up for working out. Lets hope it works!

Little nervous

So weigh in is tonight and I am a little nervous. Since I have gone back to work I haven't been working out and I haven't been following my calories as closely. I am afraid that this will reflect on the scale. I have been running around like crazy at work so maybe that will help. I need to find a balance but I haven't figured it out yet. Brainstorming will occur this weekend for sure! Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Gotta get back on track

So, it isn't so much that I have forgone my diet or anything. I need to get back on track with working out. I was doing well and I went back to work and boy it is just so hard to work out after working all day. I have to find the balance some how. Any suggestions?

Whew worked out this morning. I am sore but in a good way. Feels good to workout. Don't know how many calories I burned but really I don't want to know because then I will start trying to figure out how many calories I can eat to make up those burned calories. Afterwards I made notes of my goals forward and how I think I did on the workout. I have to say after the workout my attitude was that of BRING IT ON! I am sore now but look forward to the next time.

My workout plan for the next 4 weeks:
Monday/Thursday/Saturday- Light walk for warm up then workout listed below.
Tuesdays/Friday- 30 to 45 mins Cardio (brisk walking, stationary cycling, eliptical)
Wednesday/Sunday- Rest Day (light walk 15-20 mins)

After 4 weeks I will evaluate and try new exercises.

My workout today:

Walk 12 min 34 sec (3/4 of a mile)
push ups  2 sets of 12 reps
plank 2 sets of 3 reps @ 5 s on 1st 10 secs on 2nd
Bent over row w/ L-Raise 2 sets of 12 reps
Body weight squat 2 sets of 12 reps
Curtsy Lunge 2 sets of 12 reps
