Every week when I go weigh in I am so nervous. The whole time I am driving there I am praying, because I am a religious person, that somehow I did something right this week. My mind goes a million miles an hour.
Did I work out enough? Did I eat the right amount of food? I shouldn't have eatten those M&M's. I hate that I love chips (salt), etc...
Then I have to counter it by remembering that I really do enjoy working out (even if the firefighters aren't there).
Today I biked for 45 minutes. I really enjoy biking. I have even thought about buying a bike to ride outside with my kids. Butt (LOL), I know my butt is huge and I don't want everyone driving by me to be thinking sick thoughts. Wondering why someone would be embarrasing themselves by trying to fit on those seats. Do all bikes still have banana seats? I remember when I was little and I got this cool bike with a banana seat. But now day's if I tried to ride one like that I think the seat would look lost. I just can't do that to myself, the people in the cars drivng by, or a bike right now. Maybe when I get smaller.
I also did the elliptical for 15 minutes. My feet did start to get tingley, but did not go numb. I feel so good about myself after I work out. My face is bright red and I look like I might pass out, but I do like it.
I then came home and and decided to cancel my dr. appointment until after I get a pair of shoes and see if that fixes the problem. Then after a nice hot shower, which I don't usually take a hot shower but it was freezing outside, I went to weight in. I LOST 1.8 LBS. THIS MAKES A TOTAL OF 15 LBS. Yippy, a loss!!!
Then I went and found a pair of shinny silver tennis shoes. Silver is not a color I would have normally picked out, but that is all they had in size 9! What is with that? Stores need to have a larger supply of size 9 shoes. What is this all about? Did everyone who is a size 9 go shoe shopping in the last 2 weeks? Well if so, I hope they got some nice shoes, because I know I did (even if they are silver).

Hey, I wear a 9 too and I am only 5' 2" and weigh 150ish. All of the good athletic shoes seem to be in the men's section too. What's up with that?
ReplyDeleteNext time you should look for gold. I usually buy mine online now. I don't change brands and sizes. I try them on at the store if I'm not sure which brand I want. You have to plan a little in advance this way.
ReplyDeleteI have the EMT's and firefighters at my gym too. Every morning at 8am. I love the days my kids are out of school so that I can take advantage of this :-)
ReplyDeleteAnd don't worry about what any drivers would think...you are out their pedaling while they are sitting on their butts in the vehicle!
