Monday Weigh In
It was time for my weekly weigh in and since I got my new scales I am down 8lbs to 230lbs. It was pouring with rain this morning so could not do my walk so made up for it tonight by using my exercise ball and stepper for 30 mins. It feels great once I am done and the ball is so much harder than it seems. I love it for effective sit-ups, I am up to 15 but boy do I feel it the next day! Sometimes I think it would be nice to know what my exact weight was, but then I think I would be mortified, I feel bad enough to be over 200lbs, I never gained that much when I was pregnant!
My husband brought home red wine to go with our home made beef stew tonight. So I counted all my calories, reduced my protein to 2oz and enjoyed one glass with dinner. I am currently keeping to 1200 calories per day, on the weekends I might go to 1300, but this seems to be getting me results with my exercises.
I also started walking up and down my basement stairs. I started at 50 reps and at 1 set on my next work out day, I am leaving one day in between for my muscles to recouperate. Again this takes me less than 10 minutes but the cardio is very effective and 500ml of water goes down with no efforts once I am done. I am currently at 54 reps and recovered much quicker last night, so I all ready see an improvement.
Off for my herbal tea for the evening.
