after a summer of stuffing my face and drinking up many storms, it is now time to pay the piper. i’ll be paying him back with countless cardio sessions on the treadmill and elliptical machines, sit ups, sit ups and more sit ups, topped off with weight lifting.

as of yesterday, i weighed 159.7lbs. my goal is to be under 150lbs by december 14th. it’s going to be a long, hard battle, as the pounds just don’t come off like they used when i was 20. don’t get me wrong, i don’t think i’m fat per se, but i do think that i’ve definitely been hauling a few extra pounds around with me lately. hopefully, hockey, eating healthier coupled with better portion control, and a new gym membership will allow me to achieve my goal in no time.

working out at a gym is probably one of my least favourite things in the world, mostly because i know the only reason i am there is because i sit at a desk all day. however, our new membership at the steve nash sports club should keep me interested and motivated enough to want to be there everyday. another bonus is that it’s also just around the corner from my office, so hopefully, i’ll be able to get some lunch hour work out sessions in, starting with one tomorrow. i’m going to try a lunch time spin class, and then hit up an evening yoga session with crystal tomorrow. i’ve never done yoga at a gym or studio before, mostly because i think it’s going to suck and i hate the feeling of stretching. crystal has been bugging me to try it forever, so i will tomorrow, i finally will. god knows, i could definitely benefit from more core strength.
