It has been a pretty difficult week, (month, year???) and it is time once again for me to pick myself up, stop being sad and lazy all the time and start eating right. My surgery is scheduled for September 19th for my laparoscopy (exactly 30 days from yesterday) and I want to be as healthy as possible so I can heal as quickly as possible. At least that is my own personal thought.
With some encouragement from my sister-in-law telling me about her own fitness goals I decided I needed to get myself going to. I am going to try a little different approach from my usual gym, run, gym routine and try two things.
1. www.myfitnesspal.com - track food/calories and exercise (want to be my friend? gossja23)
2. 30 Day Shred - by Jillian Michaels (Biggest Loser Trainer) workout DVD
I've heard of a lot of people using this DVD to get a kick start on getting fit and losing some weight. I don't plan on losing 20 pounds (I think that might be a gimmick) but just to shake things up a little bit from my normal workouts. Wish me luck! I took a before picture (very unpleasant) and if I do see any results I will post a before and after when I am done.
