So, I haven’t posted in a looooong time. I know I always say that, but this time I will keep up with the posting! I just joined up with the “CC 4th of July Challenge” and my goals from now until the 4th of July are to:
lose 8 lbs.,
and exercise 6 days per week!
My birthday was a few days ago and I received the Nintendo Wii EA Sports Active as a present, so I started the “30 day challenge” 2 days ago. I figure this will help me along in my quest to exercise and lose 8 lbs. Just so you know, my current weight is 149.0 lbs. It’s 4 lbs. away from being “normal” for my height (5′4″), so losing 8 lbs. will take me 141.0 lbs. Yay! My real goal is somewhere between 115-120 lbs., but this is getting me on my way there. At least it will put me in the “normal” range and my dietitian will be happy! Who knows, maybe I’ll work so hard that I will reach my goal ahead of time. I’ve lost 22 lbs. in the past three months, 10 lbs. the first month, 6 lbs. the second month, and 6 lbs. so far this month (still have a few days left!
)
With the EA Sports Active, I am starting off with the low impact challenge, but I will soon try medium (or whatever it’s called, I forget). I’ll probably also incorporate my “Morning Bowling” if I can, which I usually do for half an hour. I bowl with both my right and left hands, for fun. I’m a righty, but oddly enough, I seem to bowl better with my left hand. Weird thing too, I was doing the Wii Sports Age the other day, and I played about 4 characters who were right-handed. Got terribly high ages… I’m 32 as of May 26th, and I was getting 38, 40’s and a 61 (?!?), so I decided to have some fun and play with my left-handed character. Got a Wii Sports Age of 31! Not the best, but the best of the day! I’d never played baseball and tennis left-handed before. I tell you, I’m meant to be left-handed… I’m so weird!:)
Anyway, I’ll leave you now and update my weight page. I’ll put in my high weight (I don’t remember the exact date or anything, but I can put in *something*), and I’ll put in today’s weight. Hope to hear from you soon!
