Okay so I have a very crazy schedule which has kept me from updating for a while so this is going to be a big one! That is why I am going to be lazy and just write it in the same format as I use to record it on paper. JM stands for Jillian Michaels and WF stands for Wii Fit and WFP stands for Wii Fit Plus.

YEA! I reached my weekly goal again!!!

As a nurse I stay pretty busy when I work. This makes me very tired and by the time I get home and in bed, it's usually 5:30 or 6 AM and I don't wake up until about noon. This leaves very little time for getting up, working out, showering, getting dressed, eating, and getting everything done around the house. That is why I did not set a goal such as "work out 30 minutes a day, 5 days a week" because I knew that it would be an unreasonable goal for me. So day 8 through day 11 I did not work out at all. Plus one of these days was Sunday.

That catches me up on everything I have done so far. As you may have noticed, I have lost 4 pounds already!!! YEA!!! I also went from a BMI of 28.1 to 27.4 which may not seem very big but to me it is HUGE!!! I still have 35 pounds left to go. I figured out that if I continue to lose 2 pounds each week I will have reached my goal by May 15th! Just in time for my anniversary and bathing suit season! YEA!!!
