I went to the gym last night, I am not nearly as sore as I expected to be today! LOL Maybe I didn’t work out hard enough- yeah right! LOL I signed up at MyDailyPlate, check out my log here, it is pretty neat, you log all of your food, activity, weight, measurements, etc. Even a little journal area to log how you feel. Hopefully it will help me stay on track. I am .09 away from being obese as far as BMI’s go!

But, all in all, I feel ok today, I think working out last night helped my energy alot. My goal is to go on Tuesdays and Thursdays, that isn’t too steep of a goal to easily reach is it? I have an appointment on Thursday for a fitness assessment, they will take my blood pressure, bmi, stress test, flexibility test, etc. To see just how out of shape I am, I have a feeling I will fail miserably, but I need to know where I stand so I can work on it! LOL

Ok, by telling you guys this, I am hoping it will help me keep going! You know the whole accountability thing! LOL Now I am back to work and cleaning!

Well, the last few weeks as some of you know, i have been on and off the net, it’s been a mixture of just not feeling well and just not feeling like working. But I am forcing myself back into the groove, by not only making myself work today, spent 3 hours so far trying to finish up one othe the jobs my mom has me doing, but I am also going to the gym tonight. I think maybe getting off my butt and out of the house may help LOL..

I joined the YMCA here in town this weekend, I figured for 25 a month, I cant go wrong LOL, I need to loose weight anyway, and who knows, it my really help with my energy levels. We alsoo a variety of different foods when we went shopping this weekend, from fish to chicken, no more spaghetti for us! LOL

I grabbed some great pics of Princess last night, she sleeps with us, on us, all night! I have never had a kitty that sleeps through the night, but she does, she wakes up when I do in the morning and goes right to her litter box, no potty training issues at all so far! She is such a spoiled kitty, always in one of our laps! LOL
