For I have sinned. It has been weeks since my last workout and out of shame, since my last blog post.
I know I should be better, but the lack of motivation while at home has consumed me. The energy and motivation for not failing at boot camp has dwindled and thought my next class would start sooner but because of the location chosen it starts tonight. It is time to recommit.
Not only will I be doing a Boot camp class on Mondays (Fitness Hooping was cancelled because not enough people signed up) I will begin my first ever Pilates class on Thursday! It is an inconvenient week for classes to start because its EXAM WEEK next week but I have to get back on the horse before I gain any more weight back. I am pretending like its just water / PMS weight but its probably the bag of baked lays I devoured almost entirely on my own, alongside the half a pan of brownies that was my supper last night.
I don't know why its so hard to stay motivated. I did it for two months straight, lost 12 ish pounds, now I can only say I lost 10 pounds and haven't done measurements in weeks. I assume I am losing muscle though because my legs are getting jiggly again.
However, through it all, my weekly JUST DANCE 2 battles with my girls have happened. I even crack 10000 points on Hey Ya which if you have ever played you know how tricky that is. Me and Chels even played Rasputin this Friday. Have you played this level yet? Hardest. Song. Ever. Especially for someone whose knees don't bend like that and crack if you turn to quickly. I cant squat as low as Chels but I kept up nicely! A few weeks ago I played with Colleen also and I believe she has a potential career as a Tina Turner impersonator. <3.
The worst part about these last few weeks is money issues. The way my pay checks fall, I ended up getting all three days I missed of work off one check and then with some really high bills including a 200$ bill to repair my poor virus infected laptop that basically broke my heart on Thursday, followed by a 200$ vet bill to help my poor baby eat her food on Friday, I have no money left over for groceries.
I got a bit of stuff [Thank Freddy I got my Tax cheque otherwise lord knows what would happen] last night at the grocery store but I need my computer back so I can pay off my credit cards and get back on track.
I think I jinxed my computer. I have been contemplating buying a new one because I tend to get bored of my technology quickly and so was looking into a desktop so I could have a nicer keyboard for my writing endeavors, but as soon as I look into getting a new computer, even though I can't afford it, my laptop crashes costing me half as much as a new computer. I was tempted to just buy a new one instead but then I would have to transfer all my pictures myself and that's a lot of work and I would probably end up transferring the virus alongside them.
Anyways, back to relevant information. Workouts! Resume tonight. now at 6:30 I will re-enter the hell that was boot camp. It is in a different location and has a different teacher so maybe the exercises will be different. If not, tonight will suck. Day one literally almost killed me even by the second time we got to it. Stepper-things are not fun. But they gave me great legs really fast. These legs have since turned back into tubes of cottage cheese. But Tanya's wedding is in Three weeks from Saturday and I am wearing a strapless dress that hits just above the knees so I need to look good.
I am excited for 2 classes a week. I think that will make a big difference. Especially because they are two such different classes. I have heard only amazing things about Pilates and I know from experience how useful boot camp is in muscle and cardio building. I am excited for the mixture and I will keep you updated on how it goes!
PS! Bought the new Britney CD and had a dance party with the girls. It's fun to dance like a fool !
