Fraud.

I just read my last post and I feel like a fraud.  3 weeks later and I still weigh the same!  I have been attending Spark pretty regularly but after those super intense workouts my cardio has suffered.  I am realizing that although Spark is pretty fun it isn't doing the job it was meant to do and that is burn my fat.  I can't totally blame that though.  The eating continues to be a struggle.  I have really pulled in the reins on the eating out and am getting back to grass roots here and that is eating at home.

I also have consulted my workout log from the last time I was losing weight after my first child was born and noticed at most days I was completing double workouts.  So we (my husband/trainer and I) reworked my workout schedule to include double workouts 3 days a week.  It is going to be tough but do I want to weigh 164 lbs forever?  No I don't.  So I must find a way to get these workouts in.  We also decided that spending 200$ a month on Spark is not worth the expense if I am going to half ass it.  I am actually fine with that and need to do what I know works.  Which is...STICK TO THE DIET!!!!  and do lots of cardio. I am hoping to report some weight loss soon!!!!

Back in the saddle

Almost a month gone and I am hoping to get back into the blogging.

We were away to Ontario for the second week in October it turned out to be a botched trip complete with a house fire and the end of a 20 year friendship for my husband.  The lesson to be learned from this trip... don't stay friends houses who don't have young children with your young children.  It just went so horrible.

I also came back 2 pounds heavier.  After a week back at Spark and my regular workouts I'm back to where I was before I left.  It feels like I just wasted those few weeks.  So my month total loss was only 2 pounds.  I have to pick up the pace in November here as my Biggest loser group is weighing in at the end of the month.  Although it does seem that a few of the members have lost interest as 3 of them never got back to me with their midpoint weights.

Now that I'm back my Spark workouts continue to go well.  I would like to continue longer cardio to get the fat burn going.  Diet is always a struggle for me. But I only ate pizza once this week and have a few days of dinner time salads under my belt.

Well off for my early morning run.
