Getting into the weight loss groove

A good friend of mine is starting back to weight watchers after having a baby. 

She really wants me to do it with her, and I REALLY want to.

But I can't.

I'm just not at that "place" where I can do it.  I'm working a lot, and starting back to weight watchers requires a week fairly free of extra commitments.

But I am inspired by her (as I always am, waiving to Becky!}... so I'm taking baby steps.  Last week's step was to start working out again.

My body was mad at me, and I took some time off working out, and I am by no means in my peak physical form now, but I'm going walking on Mondays and Fridays, early.  And on Wednesdays I'm doing a video.  I'm trying to keep the focus on something I REALLY like doing on Mondays and Fridays, so maybe if my friend can't walk I'll do Just Dance or I can always walk alone later on.  I need to keep this fun right now.

BUT, I also am a big believer in how important it is to do weights and build that part of my body as well, so that's what I'll do then.  Last week I did Lindsay Brinn's Shed 5 Fast.  It's a great, and fairly short, workout.

So, this week I'm gonna keep up that schedule, and I'm trying to add water into the routine of the day.  I know it helps flush out all the bad choices I make.  Kinda like repentance. :D
