84 days

Ok  How can I fail on my very 1st day of gettig in shape.  So Sad.  I didn't manage to get on my treadmill at all last night or this morning.  I am gonig to have to do better than that.  We have an event tonight so I know there wont be any treadmill tonight.  Going to have to work extra hard on Saturday.

I did take some measurments last night so that I had something to measure my success from.  The area that I am really concerned with is my stomach and hips so those are the numbers I am going to watch.  I just hate that muffin top thing I got going on.

hip: 40
belly button:  37
waist: 35

I think I would like to take 5 inches off each measurement.  I  think that is doable,  but that is going to be my long term goal.  My goal by the time my plane takes of is 3 inches from each measurement. 

85 days and counting

I figured on the calendar today that I have 85 days until I am lying on a beach in Hawaii.  So I figured that I best be starting to get into shape if I plan on being seen in a swimsuit.  So begins my journey to drop a few inches and hopefully a few pounds before I get on that Airplane in January.

I have been doing a little working out over the last few months, but nothing consistant or serious.  Now it is time to get serious.  Going to have to watch what I eat,  and I have very little will power to stay out of the Halloween candy, but I am going to give it a good try.  Also I am going to be more dedicated to getting on my treadmill and breaking a sweat.  I think I have read it that you have to do 45 minutes of cardio to actually lose any weight.  So that is my plan.... 45 - 60 minutes every day.

Wish me luck!
