Happy Weekend, my Favorite Followers!

I am excited to say my elliptical showed up Thursday evening! UPS left the huge and heavy box in the driveway...but I was able to move it and then deadlift it into the house! It weighed 98 pounds...said it right on the box!

The directions for assembly are really complicated though...so my husband and I will work on it together today to put it together. Over 100 pieces!

I am chomping to get some movement going. Because of my hip, I have limited ability to do walking so the elliptical is essential.

Here is a "before" and "after" for your amusement!

Goal Calories: For weight loss - 1200 or less (OMAD average 600 or less)
