Tuesday

Eric and I went to the gym again yesterday! I probably shouldn't be excited that we did, it was only the second day, but I am. we're 2 for 2. We went to do the spinning class again and we got there early, so we both got on elliptical machines for about twenty minutes. We went to the class and unfortunately I couldn't finish it because my butt hurt so bad! Apparently riding a bike for the first time in a long time makes you very sore on your behind from that little seat. We are definitely going to have to get a couple of those gel-pad seat covers for the bikes. Ouch!

Eric somehow made it through the class. I was in it for about 15 minutes and then got back on the elliptical. SOO much better. We're planning to go to the gym again this afternoon, but there's no way I could do the cycling class. Maybe I'll try again on Thursday.

I have discovered that working out is great for getting a good night sleep. I slept SOO good last night because I was worn out. I hope this is an every night thing - probably will be because I think it'll be a while before the work out doesn't wear me out. Good stuff.

So after a 2 month long sabbatical...

I'm finally posting again! I can't believe I got away from this for so long! Actually, I guess I can. I'm really bad about following through on things like this, as I'm sure was clear from one of previous posts about challenges. Anyway, so since we last talked, I have started a bakery business!! I've been in the preliminary stages for a while, selling goods at a farmers market and providing freebies for neighborhood and community events, just to get my name out there. I am so thankful with how it has all been going so far! I've gotten several orders! We'll see where it goes! Praise the Lord!

As for my weight loss, I am in pretty much the worst business you can be in while trying to lose weight. I can't not try what I'm serving to other people! Well Eric and I have joined a gym because amazingly his company will pay for it! We just joined two days ago (Sunday). We went to a spinning class yesterday as we understand that it is one the biggest cardio calorie-burners. It was freaking tough! But we're going again today. We figure that while our motivation is high about our shiny new toy of this membership, we better hit it hard (well, let's be realistic, not too hard).

I am unfortunately at the most I ever remember weighing. I guess it's not that unbelievable, as the increase in weight came when starting a bakery. I'm going to need to be pretty good with the rest of my eating habits to try to fend off the sweets. Like I said, I can't serve someone something I haven't tried. It's a dirty job, but somebody has to do it.
