I recently, started going to Anytime Fitness.  Since then, I have went everyday and I have worked out a total of 8 hours, since Thursday, and that doesn’t include today.  I have seen an improvement in myself.  When I go to eat something, I think about it because I dont want to undo the workout that Ive been doing.  I haven’t drank any pop in 3 days, this is my 4th day. :)  In which, I have noticed a difference in the skin on my face, my complexion is the best its been in a long time.   I took a look at myself in the mirror today and I noticed, my neck looks skinnier, which is where I lose it first usually.  And my arms are starting to tone up.  :)  I have also noticed, I am not sleeping as long and I am not as tired at night time anymore.  Ive been feeling energized throughout the day.  My back pain as seemed to ease up a bit. 

My stress & frustration level has went down to about nothing since I started working out.  I found that its the best way for me to vent it.  I feel good about myself when I am done exercising at the gym.  Whether I exercise and hour, or a couple hours.  I look at what Ive accomplished in that day and it makes me feel amazing.   I am already doing more than I thought I might do.  I see that it is now time to pick up the pieces and get my butt into gear.   My legs are starting to feel better, they were hurting, more than likely in shock for what I am doing to myself. ;)   I am happy about the results.  I may hot and full of sweat, but it makes me feel accomplished when I look back and see what Ive done in that frame of time. 

I hope I can keep up the good work, because I want to get back down to atleast size 14 or 16.  My short term goal is to get down to where I was when my dad died.  So hopefully I can do it, although, I believe I can do it.   Today, I have makde some good choices with my diet.  I choose carefully what I have been eating.  Yesterday, my hubby bought me a pop, I told him that I had stopped drinking pop.  I thanked him for the gesture and put it in the refridgerator for someone else at a later time.  I am impressed that I was able to resist.  But I did, and I feel good about that.  I can’t wait to see what else I am able to acomplish over the days, & months.  I am hoping to start seeing results by the end of the summer.  On Thursday, I will be weighing myself to see what kind of results I have gotten!  Wish me luck.
