Day 9

Today was overall a good day.  I was able to go to my gym Simply Fit and take part in a Boot Camp class. The class itself was a good change of pace.  It was nice to do something new and challenge myself a bit more.  Unfortunately, there were some moves I couldn't do due to injury or pain.  Hopefully those things will mellow out and I won't have to modify anything.  In the meantime, I think I will return to class on Wednesday but also continue Jillian Michaels 30 day Shred.
 I was also able to adhere pretty well to my goal of making good food choices.  Again, wasn't my best day food-wise, but it certainly wasn't the worst. I'm not really happy with what I see on the scale, but I know my body is changing and I will see results soon.  I look forward to incorporating work into the formula, although it does intimidate me a little bit.  I know that I can stick with it and I think maybe I can even be better at it.  I won't be at home with food or the freedom to go get food.  I also will be in more of a routine, which may help with the exercise portion.  OOH! I purchased a Biggest Loser calendar that has tips, recipes, and other little helpful components like a box to check for exercise of the day and a space for calories (if you count, which I don't do yet).  I think that will also help me organize my life enough to get to my goal soon.  My short/medium term goal?  Shed a few tens of pounds by New Years, and feel better looking at pics from the holidays.  Any hints or bit of encouragement are greatly appreciated!  Just become a member or follower and comment!
