Yikes! I just realized the last time I updated my weekly weigh ins was in January! Everything is up to date now but sadly there is a lot of red in the last couple of months. I didn't give up but I did have some bumps in the road.
Last year I started The Gym Jar. Every time I worked out I would throw a dollar in. Back in November I reached 100 dollars to treat myself. It took me a long time to figure out what I wanted since 100 workouts is a big deal! That is a lot of blood, sweat and tears. Buying a shirt or even a new workout outfit didn't feel right. So I held on to the money. In January my friend asked me if I wanted to go see Bruno Mars. Finally I found a reward that felt right. I love concerts and Bruno Mars :) I will be seeing him this July.
Back in February I tried a belly dancing class, this is one of my long term goals. I liked it but I didn't love it. I found it to be very technical and with not enough movement. I barely broke a sweat. I think I just wanted to shake my booty and sadly this did not happen.
For my birthday last month, Rob and my Mom chipped in and bought me a Fitbit. If you don't know what it is, it's basically a fancy pedometer. I love it and realize I walk a lot when I am working.
Work days- range between 11,000 to 18,000 steps a day
Days I don't work- range between 3,000 to 9,000 steps
It makes me realize I need to move more on my days off.
On Friday I decided to treat myself to a new haircut. I am still getting use to it.
I found this idea on Pinterest and made my own jars. What do you think?
Thanks for reading :)
