Zumba

I decided to attend a Zumba class at Gold's Gym in Charles Town, Wv. This was the second class that I have went to since the introduction of Zumba in 2001 and I was just as lost as I was the first time lol. I took Leah to this class since we are work out buddies and we are trying to motivate each other ...plus she is young she needs to get out there and dance.

This class was fun, energetic, and motivating I feel like it is something that we could both really get into I just wish I did not have two left feet. Also as Leah said there is a lot of butt shakin going on. I wanted to add that I am also on My Fitness Pal which is a personal weight loss app that assists members in tracking their calorie intake, exercise activities, and progress daily. I was so surprised how many calories were burned in Zumba!  Anyway I will keep you all posted on our progress.

Out the window

Apparently my healthy eating habits have taken a hiatus! Over the last two days I have eaten out each meal; who does that? Yesterday was McDonalds 2 times in one day and today was cereal from the gas station, Olive Garden for lunch, and Taco Bell for dinner. Eating out so often has become a matter of convience. Our lives are so busy and we don't seem to get a moment to even breath. In order to spare some time we just go through the drive thru and tell the friendly person on the other side what we want and they often they say, "my pleasure!" So how can you really feel bad about that? Your life was just simplified and the person at the drive through window was happy to do it!

Gym again

Here I am again!! Eventhough I ate a lot today or at least I feel like I ate a lot I am feeling very proud that I made it to the gym for the second night in a row. Last night Jesse, Leah, and I went to the gym and had a great workout and we decided to repeat it tonight. The last two nights we have done cardio combined with strength training we are just getting back in the groove so our workout is not perfected  yet but at least we are getting out there and doing this.
