Blog Deserter

And I don’t mean desserter. I haven’t been here for a while. Not because I gained weight back, which I haven’t. I have lost. But because technically I am in maintenance. So I am changing the name.

This was the first year in my life, which will be 50 this year, that I did not have a goal of THIS being the year I lose that weight. I did not greet the new year with regret and denial.

I greeted the new year with gratitude for sticking to my goal and working hard to achieve it. No small accomplishment.
But a new year means new goals. My goal is to perfect what I have attained. That means redefining my goal, which is to be in the best shape of my life and to lose another 7 pounds of fat. I have changed my regime for nutrition from the weight watcher flex plan to the weight watcher core plan, which will take ‘tweaking’. I will read more on nutrition.
For now my fitness goal is to keep up the Bikram yoga 5-7 times a week and 40-60 minutes on the elliptical 4-6 times a week.

I will go back to weight training but found that I did not lose but just got big and kind of bulky. Don’t let that scare anyone to weight train. I am in the minority of women who does bulk up. But I will get back to it when I lose the 7 pounds.That is it for now.
