Last Chance Workout

Posted by primaballerina on March 11th, 2009 |Filed Under 30-Day Shred, General, Weight Watchers |

Tuesdays are the longest days for me. I’m in law school and have 9 hours of class.  By the end of the day I’m pretty much dead to the world.  So, it’s a lucky coincidence that the Biggest Loser, my new favourite show, happens to be on when I drag my tired, pathetic self home.  I generally just want to go to bed and skip my workout, but watching these people work so hard makes me realize that if they can work out 8 hours a day, I can put in 30 minutes to do the 30 Day Shred.  And so, I was inspired to do my own “Last Minute Workout”. I just finished Day 4 of level 2. It’s now 1:10am and I’m writing this from my bed…my poor tired body can’t stay upright for another minute. I kind of feel ill…late dinner combined with exhaustion and those damn oblique twists!!

Another factor that encourages me not to skip my workout on Tuesdays is my Wednesday morning weigh-in.  I’m REALLY hoping to see a loss this week, as I’m now 1 lb behind where I hoped to be at this point (in terms of working towards my goal of losing 25 lbs by my birthday in June).

I was thinking today about reaching my goal. It’s honestly been so long since I felt good about my body, I can’t even imagine what it will feel like. I actually can’t even imagine being in the 150s, let alone 125.  It’s so far away, but I’m determined to do it this time.  Remind me of this next time I hit a plateau, okay? :)

Please send me lots of good weight-loss vibes for tomorrow- a big loss would be so encouraging right now…

Update on my weigh-in coming first thing tomorrow!

    I so hope you get your big loss!!! I’m really inspired by you working out so late just to get it in. That takes dedication and it sounds like you are truly committed to changing your life. I also love Biggest Loser and it definately makes you want to get your butt up and do something. I find myself doing squats while I’m picking up toys during the show, lol! I’ll be checking back later to see how you did!!!
