I also want to brag about how AWESOME Gretchen did!! She didn't make a ginormous fool of herself (and me for that matter!) by whining and acting a fool on the leash. She did get a little snappy when a few dogs sniffed her butt and she didn't see them. Can't blame her for that though...I think I would get a little snappy if someone tried to sniff my butt without me knowing!!

Back to my workouts....they have suffered these last 2 weeks. Part of the reason is I just don't know what to do. I know how to get on the elliptical and the treadmill but I get bored doing the same thing over and over. Last Thursday, I worked with one of the trainers. It was nice having someone push me to keep going and give me direction but trainers come with a price and I can't afford that price at this point in time. I was going to start doing Zumba last Friday but a bad night with little son made it very hard to get moving in the morning.
I started Zumba on Wednesday. Boy is it tough!! I now realize that I generally march to the beat of my own drum and trying to follow someone else is proving difficult. I'll be going to the left and everyone else is going to the right...I'm usually the only one out of sync. I'm sure I'll get better at following the more I do it. Did a little bit better today in Zumba class, still mostly out of sync but doing better.
Current Stats:
Height: 5'4"
Weight: 204 lbs (I seem to be fluctuating between 3-5 lbs and I guess I'm not losing as much because my muscles are building...)
Activity level: started Zumba....classes are 3 days a week
