I am already off to a terrible start keeping up with my blog, lol. Probably because I just started yesterday working out. I have two days under my belt and feeling much better already. Yesterday I began with my sensual belly dancing dvd for warm up. Honestly I was a bit bored so I did enough for my muscle to be warm, about 15 min, then went onto Dancing With the Stars workout dvds. Yesterday I did the swing and cool down. Today I did a different body conditioning belly dancing dvd. OH MY GOODNESS!!!! Talk about warm up. My arms hurt so good!! I did about 20 min then moved onto the swing. I plan to use the swing as my cardio until I get it down. Lastly I did the cool down. I did more with the warm up and stretching today, where as yesterday I did longer cardio.

I am going to try and start incorporating yoga/pillates before bed. Hopefully it will help me sleep at night. I have also tried to start eating better, much to my children's excited dismay. We had veggie lasagna the other night and they loved all but the spinach. I have a terrible habit of not eating, which causes your body to store fat, so I am trying to eat at least three small meals a day. I find I am not hungry, but that is probably due to years of not eating normally. I find when I do though I loose more weight and keep it off. So I actually ate breakfast today :D

I am on my way. It will take some time, but thank you for joining me on my journey. I weigh in each week and have lost 4lbs. I will post my actual weights when I get further along. Honestly I am too embarrassed right now. But soon I will make myself proud of the progress I make. It's frustrating and exciting getting back in shape. I try not to focus on the fact I allowed myself to get to this point, I cannot change the past, but I can give myself a much better and healthier future!
