Having a Fitness Goal and Plan
It’s really the end stretch for me. I’m getting married at the end of February, the 27th to be exact, and last Saturday I went for my 2nd dress fitting. The week before I was pretty sick, coughing and just not feeling well at all, so obviously, there was no form of exercise that week.
When I tried on the dress, I was surprised that I could actually get into it! I mean, it actually fit well, except the dreaded area – the midsection. For as long as I can remember this is an ongoing problem area of mine. It was a bit tight, but snug enough that it wasn’t falling off.
So, for the next 6 weeks or so, starting next week of course, I’ll be working out more regularly. Hopefully, when I try on my dress on February 13, which is my last fitting and “take dress home day,” it will fit perfectly. I am definitely nervous about this, but I know as long as I work out from now until the wedding day, I should be ok!
So what will I be doing exactly? Since I don’t have a gym membership, I will be taking advantage of the fitness resources I do have. My favorite workout DVD, the 30 Day Shred by Jillian Michaels is definitely a workout routine I will be doing. Other workouts will be the many selections I have on Exercise TV on demand, which is another great resource to have. It will help make workouts less repetitive and boring.
I plan to workout during the week and take advantage of the weekends, when time isn’t as limited.
When starting a workout routine after a hiatus its best to get into it slowly. Being too ambitious in the beginning will most likely end in me failing.
I’ve never been a calorie counter or weight watcher, more like a, “wow, this actually fits me now” type. So with that, I will be gauging my success with how I feel when I put on that dress!
