Measurements

I took my measurements last night.

Here goes...

Waist @ belly button - 36 in.

Chest- 34 in.

Hips- 38 in.

Bicep- 12 in.

My goal is to lose 6 inches off my waist and gain some inches on my bicep, other than that I'm fine.  God knows I can't make my chest grow, i've tried!  But if my waist goes back to being small, at least my chest won't seem so horrible!

Went to the gym tonight and did 30 minutes of elliptical.  I forgot my gym bag again so I didn't even attempt to get into spinning after work, i'm sure it was full by 5:35 since they start the list at 5:30 despite the 6:30 start time!

I think I need to lose like 1 inch off my waist to fit into my wedding dress, but I want to lose more!

Oh, and I bought a One a Day vitamin...I have women's vitamins from trader joe's but upon closer inspection, I've realized that I have to take 3 a day!  And they are nasty tablets that melt as soon as you stick them in your mouth, they make me gag!  Unfortunately, they do not have a "tester" for vitamins so let's hope the ones I just bought aren't gigantic!  At least it's only one now instead of 3 though, that's a step in the right direction!  I saw these omega 3 chews when walking by a GNC the other day, I might check those out, they're citrus flavored.  Okay, I'm off to shower!

week 8/11/08

Okay, so it's been like a week.  Here's my review of last week.  

Monday: Spinning 

Tuesday: Spinning and some weights and 20 minutes of regular bike/elliptical combined.

Wednesday: Elliptical for 20 minutes and a few weights

Thursday: Nothing  (I really have to stop going home before yoga because i just don't go back out)

Friday: Nothing

Saturday: Spinning, 20 minutes elliptical and weights

I still need to take my measurements.  Saturday a friend and I looked for bathing suits (Outer Banks next week) and really it was not a fun experience.  I think I need to concentrate on working my abs along with cardio, because the cardio alone is not tightening my abs and it's not good!

I wanted to go to spinning today at 9 am, but my friend had me out til 3:30 am and I just couldn't get up plus my knees hurts, they need a break!  Hopefully I'll get into spinning tomorrow night.

I need a nap.

gotta get back in the groove

I've been totally lame about updating lately.  In my defense, I was on vacation last week!  I'm trying to eat healthier, but I haven't been to the gym yet this week.  I got really bad sunburn on my hip on Sunday and today is the first day moving doesn't hurt.  But, I was invited to this free facial thing tonight, so I guess spinning is out.  This is why I need my own spinning bike, then I could spin whenever it was convenient for me!  Maybe I'll squeeze the gym in tonight after the party thing.  I really need to learn to pack a gym bag for my car, that would make this a better possibility!  Oh, and I want to take my measurements later.  I'm trying to lose some inches/fat before vacation at the end of August (yes 3 weeks).  We'll see!
