It turns out that losing weight you gained really quickly can be easier than weight that has been around a while. I gained a couple pounds with all the family here but it's already gone and I'm happy to report I'm back on track. On Sunday I worked out twice. I did 25 minutes on the Elliptical and some free weights before church, and then in the evening did another 20 minutes of cardio. Then yesterday and today has been my regular 25 minutes on the Elliptical and some sit-ups/push-ups. I'm consistently doing 30 full sit-ups (not crunches), 15 push-ups, 50 leg lefts (with each leg) and a few minutes of squats after my cardio stuff. The entire thing takes about 45 minutes to an hour. I'm going to aquafit on Wednesdays and a class that is an hour of weight training on Thursdays too.

My diet, however, is a lot harder to get back on track than my exercise. My stomach gets used to yummy bad foods and now I crave them all the time again. For example I made cookies (oops) and ate 3 today. It takes a few days of hunger and a bad mood to get used to smaller portions and healthier foods. Here's to my baditude these next few days.

Weight Today: 169
Workout: noted above
Feeling: like I NEED to get out of this 169/168 area and dig a little deeper into those 160's . I was a little too flippity floppity in my swimsuit so there is plenty of firming to be done.
