So here I am at yet another beginning sort of.
3 years ago I lost 30 lbs. 30lbs!! That's a lot of weight. And it took me about 3 years to lose it. And I was proud...so proud.
Made it to an-almost-size-12...and for the next 3 years I was "getting ready to" lose another 20 lbs.
In that time, I've gained some weight back, and have been accidentally working on humility. I started a blog in 2006 calling it "THE FINAL COUNTDOWN" thinking that all i needed to do was apply my large brain and an exercise plan and i could do it.
I learned that life had other plans. I was sick a lot, under lots of work stress. etc. etc. And I fell into my comfortable patterns of Work--> Home--> TV watch/eat dinner
I stop/started a lot of exercise programs...expecting my body to perform at the level it did when I finished my weight loss. This over-exertion caused constant injuries to my right side (hip/knee/ankle).
So now I'm back at Square 1...and I'm taking it just a few weeks at a time
My plan for now is:
- Treat injuries monthly with Dr. George!
- Maintain 2 days/week of swimming
- 2 days/ week of weight training
- 9 day "Detox Diet"
- 9 day Yoga/Meditation daily (mental/physical detox)
- 9 Days without TV/DVD's (mental/habit detox ;-)
- Blogging with my friend, Danielle - Using the Buddy System!
