Insanity Day 2 aka What does plyometric mean anyway?

Weight: 235.0 (OMG, that's 1.5 lbs less than yesterday. I should leave the couch more often.), Wii Fit Age : 37 - apparently I walk unevenly. Meh. BMI: 41.64, so I'm at lest tiptoeing in the right direction.

Food:

You what I hate? When the Wii Fit goes "That's obese" after calculating my weight. I know I'm obese. The Wii has my numbers from yesterday, which were also obese. So, why say it as if you're surprised? On the plus side, my numbers are slightly down from yesterday. OF course, it could be a fluke based on the time of day and when I last ate and all of that stuff that makes your weight fluctuate a few pounds throughout the day, but I'm calling it a small victory anyway. I need a win. Let's hope tomorrow it's down a little too, and the day after that, so the in a week or so, it will be below the threshold of "everyone's weight fluctuates" and I can claim a legitimate, albeit tiny, victory.

So, my weight listed above is before I did my workout. I weighed myself after, and I'm down another 1.3 lbs. Seriously! My BMI is at 41.41 and my weight is 233.7 lbs. Can you believe it? It will probably all pack back on when I eat lunch, but if it doesn't, that's awesome. And if every workout makes me lose a pound or so, then I'll be down 60 pounds by May. I see countless flaws in that logic, as it is based on wishes and wrong assumptions, but somehow it's still satisfying to consider it a possibility.

The Insanity workout is insane. I couldn't keep up at all, but I didn't give up. I did some of everything, but in fat-girl slow motion. And when I got tired, I didn't stop completely, although I skipped some of the jumping while doing the rest of the exercise. And when I caught my breath again, I'd jump once or twice, and then land on my knees or something else embarrassing. But I did the whole thing, without giving up. Maybe tomorrow I'll do most of the jumps, and by next week, I'll be doing the whole thing properly, if not still slowly.

So, my workout is done, and I am now watching Anne Burrell on Food Network. I'm not sure what that says about my weight issues, but I don't care to get into it today. :)
