Today is day 4/31 on my goal to workout every day in July. Jillian Micheal's 30 Day Shred has become my best friend, even though I have a love/hate relationship with that woman.

I can't quite get through the entire video. I am seriously out of shape. But I try every single morning. I can always make it to minute 11, then minute 14, and today I hit minute 20! I almost made it through! The point is, I am kicking my own butt every day.

Little bit by little bit, right? I have also started tracking my intake again. I really let that slip, even when I try to diet I just kind of gloss over and assume and ultimately fail. Go figure, right?

I like the fatsecret app for my phone, but it's slow and clunky when all I want to do is throw in a food and get on with it. I found the serenity carb counter app. Guess what it does? Yeah, counts my carbs and counts down how many net carbs I have left. It's a big wake up call.

Anyway, I weight in at 270 on June 30th and today I weighed in at 264.2! Yeah, between Jillian and low carbs I am just melting away, aren't I? Even better: I feel good. I feel stronger. I am feeling muscles I forgot I had and doing more every day. Suddenly my lungs are expanding. Sitting still is becoming a chore. The desire to snack, snack, snack kind of makes me ill.

Oh, and I found this Greek Gods plain yogurt, the Artemis one, that tastes delicious with a teaspoon of Splenda! That seriously satisfies my sweet tooth. Next time, I might add a splash of vanilla and see if I can't get a little cheesecakey with it.

Either way, I am reminded of the last time I weighed this much. I lost 55 pounds. I have been trying to recreate that over and over again, and I simply didn't have the drive. I was starting to despair that I had used it all up, and wasted it by regaining all the weight over the past 2 years.

Now, I have that drive again. I have a workout buddy who keeps me accountable, I have the willpower, I have the drive, and I started and started strong. It's like pushing a car: It's hard to get moving, but once you do it is way easier. Just DON'T STOP. That's how I feel, like I can't stop pushing because getting this started again is going to be hard. I don't want to start again. I think I have done that enough.

Today is day three of my latest diet attempt. I have been working out, using a program called Skimble and doing the one hundred pushups program. They are very small work outs, less than ten minutes each, but they add up. After doing both yesterday, my entire body aches today. I also put in 30 minutes on the elliptical two days ago!

Ahh, another day another chance to do better. My goal is to get down to 245 this time. That's 22 pounds. I am going to try and reach that goal this month. Between diet and exercise, I might make it. No worries if I don't though, there is always next month.

Whew, its been a struggle, but I am back to losing and finally below my last log in! I haven't been religious about working out as I have been out of town, but I got a walk in each day. I need to go back and log all of my previous workouts! 8t looks like I quit, but last week I was an exercise beast!

Well, there goes another one. I managed to end yesterday with 1800 calories. It was a feat. Today isn't looking so good, calorie wise. I am going to be super busy today, and my to-go meals aren't exactly packing on the calories for me. I will have to find a way to get some more in!

I got up bright and early today and did 14 minutes on the elliptical. then I spent 10 minutes stretching. my stretch routine is wonderful! everyone else complains of hurting the next day, but I rarely do. its all about taking your time stretching eh?

Today I will be going walking with some school mates. Lovely!
