Fitness Friday

So about 3 weeks ago I joined the good 'ol YMCA because summer is coming fast and my waistline was extending faster.
I mean, Houston has been voted the FATTEST CITY IN THE COUNTRY for the past 4 years!

This explains a lot. 

I've been working out about 5-6 times a week so I thought what better way for me to calculate my progress and make a food diary than put it on my blog!

So here we go...

Lets call this little journey:

This week I've been feeling a little less than excited about heading to the gym.

Like I've said, I've been working out consistently for 3 weeks and am seriously seeing no results.

Like, I've lost a pound.

Not encouraging. 

But what's keeping me going is the fact that I'll be  older than dirt 25 in two short months, and ya'll,  I need to look my best while having a complete quarter life crisis melt down.

It's going to happen.

So I'mma keep on keeping on and see where this takes me.

As for workouts, I'm a HUGE fan of taking classes at the gym.

I get super bored when I work out by myself, and taking classes also pushes me to have better form and do more reps because, hello, there are 20 other people in the class that are watching.

This week in workouts:

(I also walk Cash for an hour everyday)

Monday: BodyPump (full body weightlifting class using hand weights, bar, step, and body weight)

Tuesday: Cardio (20min on elliptical, 10min stair climber) 30mins of Abs

Wednesday: Day of rest.  Even God needed one.

Thursday: Cardio (20min elliptical, 10min stair climber), Body Pump, Abs

Friday: Cardio (30mins elliptical, 15mins stair climber, 15mins bike)

Saturday: Body Pump or Spin (haven't decided yet)

Sunday: Another day of rest...I'm only human ya'll!

This week for dinner:

(I usually have tuna and share baby carrots with Cash for lunch... exciting)

Monday: had NO groceries, ate a tuna melt

Tuesday: finally went to the grocery store, but still ate some Sushi we picked up

Wednesday: Finally a good meal! Chicken Rollitini with Spinach

you can go here for the recipe. 

Ya'll, with all of that Cheesy goodness...it's only 200cals per chicken breast.

Can I get an amen?

Thursday: Hamburger

Friday: Hmm...not sure yet, but probably eating out with some friends

Weekend: I'll let ya know next Friday

So now that you know my routine and diet plan, why in the world are the pounds falling off?!

I think the good Lord keeps me from getting to my goal weight because he knows I'd walk around looking like this

or this

sorry I'm not sorry?

Ugh...oh well.  Here's to keepin on keepin on!

2 months... I think I can, I think I can...
