I've been pretty good at staying on track with Weight Watchers, but I have NOT been good about working out. I had a membership at the YMCA, which is probably a mile from my house, but I never went. I got back on the Weight Watchers Wagon at the beginning of January, and I really tried to make working out a habit, but it did not go so well. I would go every once in a while, but I was so intimidated by anything other than the treadmill, that I would only walk a few miles. Obviously this is better than no exercise, but it got so boring that I just couldn't force myself to go.
So, I canceled my membership ($36/month) and invested in The Wave by The Firm, an at home workout program. I'm not one to buy into "As Seen on TV" type of merchandise, but a dear friend, Kerry, used the previous model of this product and had phenomenal results. She raves about it and tries to promote it to everyone she knows. I am nervous, but very excited about it. It was $57, hardly more than one month at the Y, so I feel like it was a good investment. I'm starting it today after school, and I'm pretty pumped!
I'm down 19 pounds since January, and 88 pounds from my highest. I have a good attitude today, about life in general, but specifically my ability to keep getting healthier. I'll let you know how things go!

You look great, Nem!
ReplyDeleteI was feeling the same as you about the Y...
I am now doing Y Personal Fitness which I think of as the step between just being a member and having a personal trainer. A twelve week program where they show you how to work all the scary machines there. I used to like Curves, but I also like the idea of working out with HHTB, so I'll give this Y thing a try.
I even went to my first zumba class last week.
Now, if I could just lose those 88 lbs like you've done, I'd be set!!!
Love you!
So proud of you! You are FAB, Nem!
