Getting In Shape


Someone asked the question if I'm trying to bulk up or lose weight. The answer is trying to lose weight.
I'm going to the gym at least 3 times a week. I like to go 4 times. What kind of exercises? I'm taking classes offered by the gym. Yoga and Body Pump, that's what my schedule allows. Other than that I like to run the elliptical.
I enjoy the classes because you have people to hold you accountable. I'm having a lot of fun getting in shape. This is not a New Year's resolution, this is a life resolution.
I'll quote one of the instructors, "don't get on the scales everyday checking your weight because it's like watching paint dry." In other words weight doesn't disappear overnight. If it did...um that would be yummy-ice cream everyday.

Wise advice about not scale-hopping, but it's also wise to make a habit of checking yourself once a week. I had three weeks of incautious relaxation and was up half a stone by the time I got round to reading the scales.
