Avenger's Initiative - Month 2

This past month I fully admit I did not do 100%. First I came down with a cold, then my brother stayed to visit for longer than he had originally planned so I only got to work out twice in those two weeks (I hope that some of my walking at least partially made up for that). Then I admit there were a couple of times where I just got busy and forgot, once when I showed up too late because I forgot they close an hour earlier on Friday, and then the time I missed because my cat can be a shit head and attacked my arm, leaving some bruises and puncture wounds that I didn't want to aggravate. So, yeah. :/

On the plus side, I finally hit my goal of 400 calories burned in a workout. So there's that at least. ^_^

Avenger's Initiative - Month 1

So, as some of you may know back in October I won a month free at Curves. I'm pretty sure I've mentioned all this before (if not here then I KNOW I have on my Facebook), but long story short my parent's wrangled up enough money for me to get a membership. And I've been busting my ass since then trying to lose weight/get in better shape for a group cosplay. (I needn't explain it more than to point at the title of this blog post. lol)

In the spirit of oversharing (and making me feel like I'm actually keeping this thing up to date even when I'm not currently working on costumes), I figured I'd chart my progress each month here. The "months" will be decided by whenever Curves has me do the monthly measurements/weigh in, so updates won't be up until I get the print-out each month (which will be the visit after the measurements are done).

I admit I'm leaving weight off because honestly my weight makes me cringe, and I'd prefer to just post when it hits marks I'm happy with it hitting.  Oh, and Calories Burned starts off on October 12 because my first couple of workouts weren't on the Curves Smart program ergo there's no data for them.
