Weight Loss

I've been doing the Weight Watchers thing for a few weeks now. I've managed to lose nearly 6 pounds so far...not too shabby.

My reason for losing weight - I walked passed a store front on my way to work one day and saw this ASS in the reflection. It was MY ass and it was HUGE!

Where did that come from? Holy Guacamole Batman!

I tipped the scale at my highest ever - 210lbs!!!

So...anyway - I'm on the weight watchers...doing pretty well with that and I've added walking on the treadmill to my routine. Not a daily routine mind you...just a routine.

If you have ever used a treadmill you will know what a boring, tedious workout it is. It's NO wonder so many of these things turn into clothes hangers in so many basements.

I made a playlist on my iPod to help keep me going. Music really motivates me to move, so it does help a lot.

So...I'm walking...and listening, and be-boppin' and semi-running and thought to myself..."Thank god I'm doing this in my basement because if anyone saw me doing this right now I would look utterly ridiculous!" But...I was having fun and if that is what works to keep me going...then so be it.

I wonder why there aren't any humorous exercise videos out there? Maybe there are and I just haven't seen them. I really haven't been looking for them either. I did a Google search...I didn't find anything.

I know laughter is always a way to perk people up. People can always find humor in situations and walking on a treadmill has got to be up there on the scale of least humorous things to do. So if you have some good music and amusing andecdotes, some self deprecating bits and the like on a video...I would buy it!

I can see a bunch of middle aged Mommies who want to lose weight and get fit buying it too!

hmmmm...I think I need to explore this a bit more.
