Good Start to a Tuesday:

Well at least my workout was a good start to a Tuesday.  I got to the gym and I had a pretty decent workout.  30 minutes of cardio and 450 calories burned.  Now to get to the gym every day for the rest of the week so I get 4 days of workouts in.

Another week

I got to the gym 4 times last week and from what I can see I drop 2 pounds. I started out the week at 333 and I weighed in at 331 today. I am not concerning myself with my weight though. I am more concerned with consistantly getting to the gym. And I will take 4-5 days on a given week. Here is to another week at the gym and hopefully anther 2 pounds off. That would be nice.

Wednesday:

I was a little sore this morning so instead of not going at all i decided to go lightly and still get a run in.  20 minutes later i had a decent sweat going and i felt good for still getting to the gym...tomorrow will be a regular cardio day...So far i have been able to get to the gym by at least 5:10 and then get back home by at least 5:45.  I am hoping that this continues over the next several weeks.

Workout Tuesday

I got to the gym for the second straight day at 5:00 am. 30 minutes and 475 calories later I felt really good. It is nice to be home after work and know that you don't have anywhere to go!

EARLY Monday Morning:

And yes i do mean early. I did what I said I was going to do on Friday and I got to the gym at 5:00 am this morning. Surprisingly there were a bunch of people there with me. 30 minutes of cardio and 450 calories later I was on my way home. Thankfully both my wife and son were still sleeping soundly...I was able to get into the shower and dressed before either of them stirred. Maybe this will actually work? I certainly hope so. It will be nice to go home tonight knowing that my workout has already been completed.

I also have a new short term goal. 320 before May 12th. That will be a 10 pound weight loss in one month. I am excited to see if i can do it.

Thankfullly Friday:

It is Friday and my quest to get up in the morning and go to the gym has not gone as expected.  My son has caught the plague and subsequently given it to me.  And i am just feeling better today.  I am planning on getting to the gym tomorrow morning and then starting my 5:00 am regime on Monday morning.  This way I can continue to lose weight and hopefully get to 300 by august.

Tuesday:

So it is Tuesday...and that is all that really needs said...if you do not understand my loath of this day of the week please check out my post on Tuesday, August 25, 2009 (Imagine that!)


I really need to do two things, get my butt in bed at a more reasonable time every night...and then get my butt out of bed at 5am and then immediately proceed to the gym for morning cardio.  Right now i am not really doing either and I need to stop that.  My weight has stayed really consistant over the last 3 - 4 weeks.  I am not losing weight but how could I since i am not getting to the gym regularly.  But I will take a small credence that i have kept weight off and not put anything back on even with my lack of working out.


So Tomorrow is a new start to the 30 day challenge that I placed on myself on my very first post.  Derek this is yourself writing your blog...get to the gym tomorrow morning at 5am....Or Else.
