What a joke

So I don't even know the last time I posted.  I suck, in more ways than one.

I haven't been posting though because I haven't been doing anything consistently enough to even write about.

I bought and used a kettlebell a few times.  It is a three stage bell from Empower.  You have your main bell which is 5lbs then can add a 3lb to go to 8lbs, then a 4lb to go 12lbs.  It also came with a DVD to work along with. 

The few times I did it it definitely kicked my ass.  I enjoyed it too, as much as anyone can enjoy working out that is.  I just have to make myself get back into it.  I like the fact that the chick doing the video is an older lady, maybe in her 50's and isn't a skinny minny gorgeous chick.  Although, don't get me wrong, she's very fit.  She's just not a skinny minny chick I don't want to watch.

I've done the elliptical a few times as well but nowhere near as much as I should.

So yeah, I'm hovering around 195 again.  Or maybe still.  I didn't bother going back to my previous posts to find out what I was the last time I posted. 

I was really hoping that having a blog about it would help motivate me.  Ha, what a joke that turned out to be. 

But at least HDT and I have begun taking Poydras for a walk in the evenings.  We're trying to do it every day.  When we just do the circle around the neighborhood it's just slightly less than a mile.  When we take a detour and go around the park or back up one of the streets it'll reach or just go over a mile.  As we continue doing it we'll make more than one cycle around or branch out and go into another neighborhood. 

Yesterday when we were 3/4 of the way done it started to rain.  By the time we got home we were pretty well soaked but it was warm enough that it wasn't that bothersome.  We did make it in just in time though just a minute after being home it was pouring.

So yeah, I'm a joke when it comes to losing weight.  I want to, it's just hard to stay with it.  Once I can establish the habit I'll be much better.  Knowing I can do it helps, since I was able to a few years back and lost those 26lbs then.  So I know I can, I just have to make myself again.
