Ready to Cry

I have been working out for about an hour every week day for the last week and 1/2 for almost an hour a day but I haven't lost a pound, actually the scale says that I gained a pound. I am so very frustrated. I really want to lose the weight, I don't want to look like this anymore. I don't know what I am doing wrong. I do yoga and 30 minutes of cardio one day and strength training and 30 minutes of cardio the other day. I am so very disappointed.

working out

I have been working out everyday so far this week. I might not have lost any weight but I am sure something is being done because my muscles in my legs and arms are killing me.  As of today I also had sweat dripping down my back and off my head. I am sure that is a good sign that I am knocking off calories. My goal is to be able to walk 2 miles by the end of summer with struggling to breathe.  I need to go get my medicine for the nebulizer to help get my breathing under control.

Overweight

I have really decided I don't like the way I look or feel.  I get out of breath pretty easily when I am chasing after Ethan. (of course, I do have asthma so that doesn't help) I just want to get down to a size 8 or 10. I don;t like my tummy hanging over my pants or my boobs the size they are.  So as of yesterday, I started using the wii fit and decided to walk or ride my bike everyday.

Summer vacation

My summer vacation started on Friday.  But of course Ethan was sick, so it wasn't very much fun.  Then yesterday we did more rearranging in the house. I do hope that is done for awhile.  Last night Jeff and I went out for dinner, and on our way home we got to watching the clouds and it looked very nasty everywhere but the Elmwood area got hit with a tornado and it destroyed  most of downtown.  I feel a little helpless, wishing that I could do something.  Today, I hope will be relaxing. I am going to try out to new burger recipes that I found with my own little twist. 

I will spend my summer babysitting two kids starting next week. I plan on going to see the Lego exhibit at Lakeview and going to the zoo. I don't have to worry about going to a pool, as we already own one.  Of course summer is never summer with out doing a little school work.
