TxDoll86's Journal, 18 January 2011

I normally don't weigh in everyday.. but since I weighed in midday yesterday. I wanted to get a closer weight. Did good at the gym yesterday. 35 Minutes on the Elyptical, and 25 minutes on the treadmill.

Edit: 9:34am... ha ha ha ha ha ha.. I just read the requirements for my Kinesology Class. Well... I wanted motivation and a reason to stick with it.. and I got it. It's required for you to work out at least 4 times a week. Starting at 10 minutes per work out.. that doesn't include a warm up and cool down. It works up to 40 minutes. Granted I did an Hour last night.. it's just different when you have to do it.. or you won't get a grade.

The options for the Mandatory final are a 30 Minute Jog, 3 mile walk, or a 30 Minute Stationary Bike Ride. I already know I could do the walk, and the bike ride as well. My first thought was.. your nuts.. if you expect me to jog for 30 minutes. Then I stopped and thought about it.. and realized that i'm trying to give myself a pass again. To take the easy way out. If my goal is to lose 3 pounds a week for every week between now and my birthday. I need to set a goal for myself that is actually going to be a challenge. So I think i'm going to go for the 30 minute Jog. The most i've ever jogged in my life was 10 minutes.. and that was hard. My step mom is doing a Marathon in 12 days .. 26.2 miles. That's a goal that is a long.. long way in the future. I'd like to be able to do something like that in my lifetime though. My goal is to get under 200. I want to try and do it as a birthday present to myself. To have a kick ass summer, and feel better and look better. It's a lot to bite off... but i'm confident that having it all tied in with everything will help to keep me on track. I've invested money in this class, and if I don't do well it affects my GPA.. So.. Wish me Luck. Were gonna hit the gym again tonight. Try for a 10 minute jog.
