Getting Prepared

So with the help of my Costco membered friend I purchased a gym membership at 24 Hour Fitness.  Last night was my first night activating my membership and actually working out.  Troy and Joe came with me with my "bring a friend for 7 days" pass.  Today I am starting to feel my work out from last night. I did 1 mile on the Elliptical and 40 flights of stairs which took me 20 minutes on the old school Stair Master.  I am hoping to stay motivated enough to go several times a week and to eat healthier.

On Monday Troy came to my work to meet with the financial advisor and me.  Since he was here he went and got us lunch from Burger King and brought it back to us. I must admit that I felt ILL after eating it.  After not eating fast food for nearly 3 weeks and then downing a steak burger thing and french fries I felt like crap.  I am going to try to remind myself of how I felt each time going through a drive through sounds like a good idea. 

My goal is to lose 30 lbs. I need to lose some weight before my next Dr.'s appointment or she is really going to yell at me.  The closer Troy and I get to wanting to actively and more aggressively TTC the more important it is for me to lose the weight. I want to have a healthy pregnancy and with the extra weight I am already carrying getting pregnant now would only push me into the danger zone. Since I will probably already be a higher risk pregnancy than the average person I want to try to do as much preparation for my pregnancy and my baby as possible.
