Last week was ridiculous. Not one day went by that I could find an hour (or longer for some work-outs) to get it done. My favorite attempt was Saturday-Abby's choir concert at school, six-year old birthday party, five-year old birthday party, bed. Unless I wanted to work-out in the middle of the night, I had no chance to get it done.
To make up for it, I found this great app on my phone called My Fitness Pal. You can enter everything you eat and it keeps track of the calories for you. All I do is put in my goal weight and how active I usually am and it gives me a number to stick to every day. I figured since I did not have time to work-out or snack, this was a great time to start.
Let me stress I am not big on dieting. I know skipping carbs and fruit make one lose weight quickly, but how healthy does that sound? However, as I am keeping to a certain caloric number, I realized how big my portion sizes have been. I have spent the last week feeling hungry a lot, but, for the first time in over a month, I can see a difference on the scale.
So, between starting this work-out again and watching my calories (in a healthy way), I may be able to fit into my shorts sometime soon!
All that said, I completed Chest & Back and Ab Ripper again. It felt great to be back on track.
