Street Strider Diary: Week One

I have 15 pounds that I'm so tired of lugging around!  To help keep myself motivated, I'm posting my starting weight: 158 lbs!!  GASP!!!  I was only 145 when I was pregnant with Linky!!!  EGADS!!!

I've found myself wearing clothes to strategically hit the belly bulge, but even that's not working anymore because when I sit and the fat folds over my pants or skirt line, I swear I can hear "WHOMP!"

With hubby working 3 jobs, the kids off for the summer, and me about to have surgery to remove some horrible corns from my right foot in 3 weeks, my gym membership is a waste.  And home workouts always get distracted by something or the other.

My remedy? I'm testing out a Streetstrider! Talk about a vicious elliptical workout without being stuck at home staring at the walls!!  My routine has been to drop Maddy at camp, which runs from 1-4, put Linky down for his afternoon nap, and then off I go to zip around my neighborhood.  The Streetstrider moves really, really fast!!

Day 1: Barely could finish my 10 min goal.
Day 2: I tried for 20 but made it to 18 mins
Day 3: Today was going to be 25 but instead, 22 mins

I'm loving it!!

Hopefully my fat will hate it and burn, burn, burn!!!
