The gym is the answer. Ugh.

I knew it all along.  I'm not an idiot.  I just pretend not to know things sometimes.  I know eating better plus exercise = weight loss but I still like to try one or the other, or just a small change and see what happens.  I lost quickly in the beginning because I was at the gym 3-4 times a week.  The show I was playing helped keep me on a schedule and I thought after that was done the flexibility would help.  Well, read every single damn post from July and you'll see how THAT helped.  I feel back in control, even though I'm going to NH on Wednesday I'll still get 3 work outs in this week and pray for the best come Friday.  Then I have a couple trips down to NYC with my parents but those are on weekends so really I can get back into a gym routine.  I just have to avoid going at 12:00pm.  There is absolutely nothing to watch on TV and it gets unbelievably boring.  The 2-3 slot was just awesome as I watched an episode of "The Protector" and really liked it.  You know, crime solving plus personal life problems all inter twining... Anywho, I've known all along that I need to keep the gym a part of my routine otherwise I'll plateau.  It's good to know for my future that I'm making some good changes in the world of eating but if I want to keep losing (and boy do I) I have to get back to the gym more than I have been. 

So, anyone wanna come with me?  I could use a bit of motivation to get there. 

Oh I also want to officially share my goal of reaching a loss of 15 lbs by Labor Day.  It was the first little challenge I signed up for on the WW website and I rocked the first 10, now just wanna get through these last 5 in just under a month.  I can do it, I've been close, I just keep dancing around these current 5 lbs.  Getting back to the gym will definitely help but I was watching Jillian Michaels (from Biggest Loser) on some other show while my detective was at commercial and she was throwing out tips to keep yourself on track, one of them being let your friends know your goals.  So hello friends!  Here's my goal:  another 5 lbs by Labor Day putting me at the 15 lb mark like I signed up for.  Then it's another 5 to be at 20lbs by Vegas, and another 10 by Jamaica in November.  It should be interesting to see how I work all of this into school.  It's been nice (and a bit challenging) doing this over the summer but I know what needs to be done so hopefully I'll work this into a routine. 

Um, I feel really boring so I'm going to end this.  Thanks for reading!  Let me know if you wanna come to the gym with me!
