My Single Mom Life

I am heading out to Publix shortly, to get groceries and some D size batteries so I can show you all how the elliptical works.
I am loving this so far.
Every morning now, I wake up, really wake up, and then do 20 minutes at a reasonable pace on the elliptical.
This machine is so exactly what I needed in my home, you have no idea.
This is a far better workout than just walking around my neighborhood, and I'm not at risk for getting run over on my sidewalk-less streets, or falling down.

This is all so exciting to me after years of being on weight lift restrictions of 10lbs or less, told not to do any exercise more strenuous than walking, so to get the go ahead from my docs, had me near tears.
Years of being almost sedentary, I have put on weight, and I'm not happy about that.
When I get home, I will officially start my diet and exercise plan, and even post my starting weight *gulp* and my goal weight.
I hope y'all stick with me and keep on reading, as I go through this journey to get back in shape after almost 7 years of being on some sort of restrictions because of my back.
It is going to be quite the process, but I am determined to not get any heavier.
I'm almost 40, ok so, turning 38 this March, but 40 is just around the corner! And I'm not going to enter my 40's out of shape.
I will be making post and posting videos as I go, and I hope y'all stick around.
And if any one out there wants to start working out and have like a workout buddy, let's hook up!
We can keep each other motivated, updated on our progress, share recipes and stuff.
All my posts about my workouts on the elliptical, will be in their own category from now on, you can find it here in the category elliptical.

Ok, time for me to get going and get things done.
Later days!
