More than any loss of pounds, I am excited about how much more physically active I have gotten on a more regular basis.
I walk at least three times a week, for twenty to forty minutes. Finally, after months of physical stagnation and lack of motivation I have gotten my butt in motion!
So, with all this new-found activity, one would think that I would have lost a significant amount of poundage … sigh …
Well the four pounds that I added in January are gone 😀 . It seriously took until yesterday to finally be able to see it on the scales and declare it. Like house guests who came unannounced, and undesired, I thought they would never leave!
So, now it is on to March, and my five pound loss a month goal.
I am realizing that I am going to have to get really focused, both in regards to what I put into my mouth, and what I do to get active.
Next month I will focus more with regards to the area of food. For now I want to introduce a video. This video is only 15 minutes (truly we all can find 15 minutes each day … or at least 15 minutes three to four times a week). I discovered it on Pinterest, but it comes from an episode of Dr. Oz.
Shaun T is a fitness expert … and he looks the part (sorry ladies, I tried to find a photo of him wearing a shirt, to no avail). He has two exercise programs, Insanity and Hip Hop Abs. I am not sure, but I believe that he is the male version of Jillian Michaels.
What I loved about this particular video is that it is just 15mins. … a small chunk to get started with.
So, though March may come in like a lamb, I am hoping it (and I) go out like a lion!
