We can work it out

I spent my second afternoon at the gym today and perhaps I shouldn't label it so much with 'second', but just say I went to the gym again, as sometimes that can be psychologically bad for me!

Anyway, after walking on the treadmill for 45 minutes yesterday, I worked out on several machines tonight for about an hour, so feeling pretty good. Still waiting for the stinking personal trainer to contact me - dammit, I want to get into the gym big time, know where things are, where equipment is and what my goals should be! Argh!

Anyway, in other matters, i dragged my arse to WW today to weigh in. I apparently lost 200grams, but then I know how to sometimes balance the scales in my favour if it's that close. I know, sad but it's can sometimes be the way you stand on the scales that gives you the good energies to get through the rest of the week.

Alright. I've had a shitty day at work, so that combined with a lovely headache from exercise - I mean, I ask you guys, why would I always get a headache after working out? I drink a fair bit of water, but I do sweat a lot mroe than most, so I'm wondering if it's water or if I have blood pressure issues? Advice and opinions are welcome, not that anyone actually comments here!

The plunge...

I had training all day at work. It was quite draining for me, as I didn't sleep fabulously last night. But, I dragged my arse to the gym tonight on the way home from work and for that, I am extremely proud of myself.

I haven't been to this particular gym before, having joined at another of its franchised gyms in the area, so I wasn't overly sure where things were, but I kinda just bluffed my way through and kept telling myself that I didn't give a shit what anyone thought of me. I managed to find myself a locker and jump onto the treadmill - I can do treadmill well and I know my way around the controls.

I walked on the treadmill for about 45 minutes - I think that's the longest I've EVER walked on any treadmill at any one time! I burnted 300 calories and walked over 3kms. For me, this is an achievement.

Next time though, I need to remember to bring a towel, because sweating on the treadmill without a towel is very inconvenient and very unlady-like - not that I'm a lady!

Weigh in is tomorrow. Not really sure how I'll go. I know I haven't exercised well, and although I haven't eaten a lot, I haven't been watching what I'm eating.

I'll be shocked if I lose.

Slackness

Just a quick catch up because I can't be stuffed updating thoroughly - I'm that jaded right now.

The week before last, I lost 2 kilograms. Something which I attribute to walking a lot to the Commonwealth Games, having my mother around driving me nuts and being generally active. It had nothing to do with eating well!!

Anyway. I weighed in again on Tuesday and despite having my period for the second time in as many weeks - another story for my other blog, I didn't lose any weight, but I didn't gain any either.

I'm disheartened with my WW quest. My leader is just a joke and I avoid going to the meetings, or staying after weigh in. So, I have taken matters into my own hands and am going to visit the gym tomorrow afternoon to hopefully join. I'm getting a pretty good deal - better than others who've joined, so hopefully I can make a go of it. I need pushing, so I'm hoping the 3 personal training sessions I've purchased will help kick start.

The other thing is the counter I am using on this site to update my weight is a joke and I cannot simple log in to change my weight. I have to recreate my counter from scratch, which is highly annoying, so maybe I need to find another. I'll check shortly.

Anyway, I'm sorry for the short update, sorry that I can't be a positive influence with this blog. It's not happening tonight and I guess you could forgive me that tonight.
