Losing Amber - A Weight Loss Journal

I'm a 28 year old Mommy to two boys. I recently had my 2nd baby November 2006 and now I'm ready to battle the pounds and reach my goals. I plan to use this journal to post my successes and moans on the battle to a happier, healthy body.

Been a Lil' Lazy

So I've really kinda slacked on the eating thing. I'm kinda on the fence about things. I know Atkins will work for me but I also don't feel quite right shunning certain fruits and veggies, grains. In the meanwhile I'm just trying to stay away from sugar but sometimes that doesn't work so well LOL.

I didn't join the gym. I worked out there 2 or 3 times and I realized that I would be rushing around so much on my lunch hour I would only have 10 min to eat. I'm a receptionist at the front desk, I can't be eating on a salad or sandwich when I have to constantly grab the phone. I really did like that gym though, maybe one day I will join.

I did buy something called Yourself Fitness, you can get it for playstation, or computer and it is just like a personal trainer. I was a little skeptical but it will kick your butt. You complete a fitness evaluation and this "woman" compiles a program for you. You tell her how long you have to work out, what equipment you have (weights, ball, step) and its a varied workout every time. Its also like a game, you can unlock areas to workout in, music. And after each segment she will ask how you felt. Like today lower body was my focus and I couldn't do the last 2 sets of lunges my legs were fatigued so I told her I couldn't keep up. So your Memory card for playstation keeps all this in mind for next time. Hey I figured this thing is getting me to exercise so its really not a bad thing. I've read on weight lifting boards that if you tell her its easy she will really kick your ass....even for a guy. My legs are so sore! But I love it.
