Getting Started

Today we are getting started on our 2012 weight loss journey. My husband and I are going to work together to get healthy this year. We started all of this in May 2010. We both got to our lowest adult weights by November 2010.  In fact Tony had lost more than 100 lbs while I had lost more than 60.  We fell off the wagon after that, though neither of us has reached our previous weight again. This year is about no more excuses! Tony has started with his old trainer again and I will be starting my fitness classes tonight. Our kids received bicycles from Santa so they too will be getting more exercise. I am so excited about what is to come!
This blog is about being accountable for what I want to achieve. I'll be working out at classes and on my own most days. Here is my schedule.
Monday-Zumba
Tuesday and Wednesday-at home activities or running at the gym
Thursday-Cycling and Pilates
Friday-Cycling
Saturday-at home activities or running at the gym
Sunday-Bodyflow class
I'll be trying to update regularly on progress. My goal is to lose 40-50 lbs from my current weight. I gained just over 20 lbs from my lowest weight so I feel confident that I can do this and maybe more. Tony is hoping to lose about 50 lbs from his current weight. He was closer to his goal than I was to mine so we are working with fairly realistic goals. We have two boys that need lots of physical activity and healthy food to eat too.  The boys aren't always excited about healthy dinners. We'll be trying to eat healthier meals as a family as well as working out. Follow to see how we do.
