Monday:
jogged 3 miles (indoor track), intervals for the first 2 miles (straight portion + 1/4 curved portion)
crunches as usual
That was some workout this morning, I felt like I was going to pass out afterwards. I think I need to eat a bigger breakfast before I work out, but at the same time I don't want to get cramps!
I still haven't found a form of cardio that I really enjoy, but I'm learning to live with doing it anyway.
Hmm, I've had this problem too. I've learned to like jogging, but have you tried maybe sports or hiking or something like that? How about swimming, or dancing? I'm trying to think up some non-gym-like ways to get a workout.
Yesterday I did great! (if I do say so myself *smile*)
I did the 4 mile WATP tape in the morning (kids at Grandmas)
Cleaned house ALL day it seemed (it really needed a thorough hosing down *smile*)
30 minutes treadmill-20 minute mile at 3.0 mph and 10 minutes cool down
30 minutes bike
I also drank 7 glasses of water which is good for me.
So I did 2 hours of cardio yesterday!! Yay for me! That was a first. Today I would like to do toning and 30 minutes bike of course....maybe treadmill, we'll see. I haven't found cardio I'm in love with either so I just do it.
On a side note, since yesterday I lost 2 pounds so that puts me in the land of the 170s-178 to be exact!! I know it's too good to be true. You can't lose 2 pounds in one day so it will probably go back up but I'm just glad to EVER break that 180 mark.
I'll take it. Plus my TOM is on its way and I always lose right before it and then gain back (I know...I'm a weirdo...everyone else gains because they're bloated...I do the opposite).
Good luck to you all! Great job keeping with your program!

100 crunches
Tuesday-
45 min treadmill walk/run intervals.
40 crunches
Then I left to go put my laundry in the dryer and planned on going back into the gym at my apartments. Well dummy me left my key in the gym so I couldn't get back in. Thank goodness I keep it seperate from my regular keys or I would have been screwed! Sometimes I wonder where my head is.
I did 30 minutes on the bike. Good part is I DID NOT want to exercise today. I made myself go down anyway. I just wish I had taken my walking shoes with me because after I started, I felt like doing the treadmill but it's a little late and I have to be up early. Should have planned ahead! Oh well, at least I got off my duff and got down there!
