Thinner Thursday

Today, Cameron and I had a quiet day at home.  We even got to nap together again (although do you really call it a nap at 7pm?).  The weather was kind of lousy, so we didn’t go out.  I did manage to do my second day of Jillian Michaels’ 30 Day Shred workout DVD this morning.  I usually only find time to work out at night after Cameron’s in bed, so I am really enjoying relaxing tonight.

Yesterday I started my Stroller Fit class.  The weather could not have been better (which is nice, because it is an outdoor fitness class that goes on rain or shine).  I really enjoyed it.  The instructor is nice and pushes you to your limits without making you feel embarrassed if you are having a hard time.  She is an advocate of listening to your body.  She told us that if we feel like we couldn’t do something any more, do it for a few seconds longer and then stop.  Cameron loved when I did the walking lunges while pushing him in the stroller.  He was sure it was a game of peek-a-boo.

So, this week I made a real effort to work out.  I worked out four days total, and my goal this week is to beat that.

Without further ado, here is this week’s weigh in.

Week 0: 164 lbs
Week 1: 165 lbs 12 oz
Week 2: 165 lbs 2 oz

How depressing – I actually have to keep track of the ounces now so that it looks like I lost something.  Sigh.  I find working out to be so discouraging.  I have never been able to loose weight before.  I know, I just have to keep at it.

But, at least I lost 10 oz.  That is close to my goal of a pound a week.  Let’s hope for bigger losses in the future.

Since today was a lazy Thursday, I didn’t take any pictures of Cameron.  I know, I suck.  But, since I had my Stroller Fit class yesterday, and since we are looking forward to the sun tomorrow, here is a sunny stroller picture taken last week.
