Steppin' Up to the Challenge

Nerd, I know. You'll understand if you keep reading.

I'm so glad we're all doing this together. The only times I really stick to things like this are:
a) when I'm being held accountable
b) when there is competition involved
c) when there's a chance to win something

Unlike some people seem to think, I do need to lose more than 2.3 ounces and regain muscle lost from 2 years (off & on) of working out with my trainer. booooo

Here's my goal:
To look like I did in this picture, taken in Aug. 2007. And, yes, I still have the bathing suit to try on in the end like a cheap weight-loss commercial.
The problem: I hate scales. As in I get obsessive-compulsive and end up weighing myself more times than necessary a day.
Today's workout: My new adventure. Taking a STEP class with an overly-flamboyant instructor. I love it, even though he says right and I'm usually doing left. Burned 541 calories to make up for the 541 Valentine hearts & mini-chocolate chips I ate today. Anyway, I highly recommend it for a cardio day.
Good luck suckers!

  1. Mimi - ignore my comment to your other comment. I forgot about your OCD. Just go to the gym on Wednesdays and weigh yourself once a week for official weigh in. I.E. go today and weigh yourself for your starting weight.
