The last few months have been a bit crazy, riddled with changes. Chaz's work schedule changed to days, so getting to the gym has been a bit of a challenge....plus I quit making it a priority, which was not a good choice. I find that when I am working out, I feel better, physically and mentally, so I'm getting back to it.
Chaz is planning on interviewing for a job around the end of the year and one of the things the company takes into account is its employees' state of health. Chaz has said he is worried about that being held against him and he would really like the job to be offered to him. My reply was that he has 6-8 weeks to make a start. He could easily drop anywhere from 25-50 pounds in that amount of time, depending on how much he works and if ever there was a motivation for getting started with the working out, isn't this it? He agreed it was.
So we're going to take it a day at a time and see how it goes. Planning on heading to the gym tomorrow night, thinking we may try a kettlebell workout together. We haven't worked out a specific schedule yet, but we'll get it figured.
I weighed in at a doctor's appointment yesterday, solidly at 250. With the way the last few months have gone and the poor choices I've made, especially regarding my diet, I'm pretty satisfied with the fact that I'm no heavier than I was when I originally started out. However, right now I'm more concerned with how I feel, rather than with a number on the scale. The goal right now is to get back to feeling more energetic and feeling like I've accomplished something, rather than knocking some numbers off on the scale. A number is just a number, but how I feel about myself--that's everything.
We'll be checking in soon. Wish us luck!
Until next time.....
