Exercise TV / Start walking at home 2 miles with Leslie Sansone

Well, back in high school, I could do her videos for hours on end and exercise on a stationary bike afterwords.

However, since I have had a few health problems since 2010, I have gotten out of shape so much, that I am only able to get to the 1 mile part of this video, before I have to stop :(

But I am going to work myself back up to walking 6 miles again by the end of 2014, so that I know I am back in shape and healthy again, because I don't like being out of shape :( I'm hoping that by working out to this video every day, as much as I can, that I can work myself back into working out and getting back into shape where I was in high school.

I will just say that at the doctors a month ago (November 2013) I was 279 and when I went today for a follow up appointment I was 278, however when I got home and peed I weighed in on my scale at 276.

I am going to work on checking my weight once a week, just to kinda watch it to see kinda where I will be when I go back to the doctor on January 23, 2014, because I am hoping that I can be in the 260's which would surprise him, since I only lost 1 pound in the last month.

If you would like to join me in this adventure, that would be awesome :) We can keep track of our progress here on my blog once a week, to see how we are all doing. :)

Highest weight: 290 (March 1, 2008)
Current weight: 278/276 (December 17, 2013)
Lowest weight: 130 (back in high school so between 1999 and 2003)
Goal wight: 170 to 175 (I want to be at this by the end of 2014)

Happy Monkey Day

I just want to wish everyone a Happy Monkey Day today.

It is celebrated internationally on December 14th. It is mainly about monkeys, but it celebrates other non-human primates such as apes, tarsiers, and lemurs. It is also an unofficial holiday.

You can read more about Monkey Day by going here.

 

Have you ever heard of Monkey Day? Do you celebrate Monkey Day? Are you a fan of monkey's, apes, tarsiers, and lemurs?

 

I know I for one, think monkey's are cute. I have never heard of monkey day, until today, so I don't celebrate it.

My to do list for December 4, 2012

I want to try and get more organized in my daily life, so I figured writing out a to do list will help with that along with helping me NOT procrastinate anymore, which is something I want to work on. I will keep you updated with how this works out as I progress through my to do list posts from now on.

Tomorrow I want to get the following done:

~ Write out grocery list.
~ Clean up boxes in dining room (Meaning go through them and keep what I need and throw away what I don't need).
~ Clean off dinning room table to make room for sewing machine and material for the fabric books for my nephew Wyatt's Christmas gifts.
~ Wrap gifts that I have for family and friends and mark names off on paper who I have gifts wrapped for, that way I can tell if I need to pick up a gift for someone else.
~ Clean off computer desk
~ Put clean dishes away
~ Put dirty dishes in dishwasher


I think that is it for now, I will keep you all updated as I work my way through this tomorrow as well as if I add anything else to the list because of finishing it or not being able to finish an item, but putting a new one in it's place.
