Getting Fit At 40!

341lbs

That is the large number that was on the scale the last time I weighed myself a couple of weeks ago.

And that was not even the highest number it has been at.

357lbs is the highest.

I am trying so hard to get my life together when it comes to my weight. It seems the older I get, the harder it is.

I wish I could blame it on having kids, but unfortunately, it’s due to just loving food way too much! LOL

It’s definitely starting to affect my health: Sleep Apnea, High Blood Pressure and Cholesterol. So, as you can see, I need to get it TOGETHER.

I have worked out for years, over 10. But my problem is being/staying consistent. I have never lost more than 25 (LAST TIME WAS 9YRS AGO, WHICH IS RIGHT BEFORE I MET MY HUSBAND) pounds and recently, I can’t lose more than 5lbs!

The good thing is that my job has a beautiful FREE GYM! I have used it many times and NOW I am ready to be consistent and finally get this weight off.

I am going to be using an app called FitBod where you tell it, the equipment you have to use, and it creates a workout from that! Which I think is pretty cool!

I will also be counting my calories with the Lose it App.

So let’s see how this goes!

I now have a plan so let’s take ACTION!

Working Out, Being Healthy & Feeling Great

I have been feeling sooo great lately. Even though I have been working at my job for 1yr and I never knew by working there I get a discount at fitness clubs. So, I decided to join Bally’s and its freakin terrifc! Since I work until 9pm everyday (Yeah, it sucks) I go right after work and excerise for 1hr and half. (They close at 11 and I am there until the kick me out!)
I love it. I can’t wait until I start seeing results!
If anyone has any good ideas on what equipment I should use and for how long let me know…or if anyone has any good ideas on just working out…I am basically trying to lose 20lbs so I am concentrating on my cardio. Let me know!!!
