Monday Muses
I know that a lot of people disagree with it, but I'm one of those people that weigh in everyday. This morning I was up a pound. Tomorrow is my "official" weigh in so I'm hoping that I managed to lose it today. I'd hate to have two weeks in a row with tiny loss or heaven forbid another maintain! But I tried to eat more today hoping that it would boost my metabolism a little bit.
As far as the swimming goes...I believe it is going down the drain! I finally found the park where they have the indoor pool. It was a lot further out than what mapquest indicated but it was still doable. The only problem is that I went in and there was no one over the age of 18 there! And if that wasn't bad enough, there wasn't one overweight person there (where are all the overweight kids that I always hear about on the news??!!) I wish I could say that I was so self-assured that it wouldn't bother me to head out in a bathing suit in that environment, but there is no way. So I'm going to look around some more, check the mileage on the closest YMCA (I don't think I can justify driving that far out of my way - but it can't hurt to check) and I'm also going to look at a few of the colleges around here to see if any of them have water arobic classes in the next few month. Whimp! What a whimp!
Calories 1300 (ok 1272). Exercise 1/2 hour on the stationary bike.

Hi Melissa!!
I usually post in on the weekly weigh-ins on 3FC and thought I'd check out your blog! WTG on checking out the pool...I know how intimidating it can be when you're the only overweight one. I guess I'm lucky because the pool I go to there's A LOT of overweight people. Swimming is such good exercise though and once you're in the pool no one can see you...try it once and see how you feel! If you're uncomfortable you don't have to go back, right? Anyhow just thought I'd say Hi!

Thanks Liz! I've been waivering back and forth today and I've about decided to go back out to the park again just on the off chance that it's only certain nights per week that the kids take over the pool. But if not, I'm still going to explore other options.
