Happy Sunday mornings ladies. Wow, i had a super duper arm workout today. I dont know what got into me but i really went all out on the arms today.
It was just one of those days that it felt GREAT to exercise. I also upped my resistence quite a bit on the ellipitical...which i was really proud of. But just typing this my arms feel funny, sore i guess, like i can feel every single muscle in my arm...they are exhausted. But i needed a really good workout, skipped friday because, well, its friday and i had to work, and it is splurge day,
Then skipped yesterday because i had some MAJOR house cleaning to do...spent about 3 hours cleaning the house. (which is rediculous by the way...am i the only one who thinks that if you didnt have dogs or kids, your house would be clean?...but with two dogs that shed, and two kids that have no idea how to put things where they belong...well, i can easily spend 3 hours at a time cleaning
.)
Kreen- Good job on the 2.4 pounds
...i love the over-2-pounds weeks...we lost the exact same amount this week.
Jtammy- I agree that it is good sometimes to get the calories up a bit just to bring them back down and kind of shock the system. Calorie cycling seems to work pretty well for me. It also does wonders for keeping me from binging. WOW though, 120 pounds lost.
That is just absolutely wonderful. Whenever i hit a big milestone like that, i will try to gather up a bunch of stuff that will equal the pounds that i lost and try to lift it...just to remind myself of how much pounds actually weigh. I bet it would blow your mind if you gathered up 120 pounds worth of garbage and threw it over your shoulder...it really makes it hit home just how far you have come when you realize you can barely lift the weight you have lost. Or to look at someone who weighs 120 pounds and think, "i lost that person" basically. You are an incredible inspiration to me. I lost 100 pounds once and then quit...it is wonderful to see someone who lost 100 and kept going...shows me i can do it too.
Cheryl- Hope you have a good week with fd. Kids can really try you sometimes. I know mine drive me nuts. There are days when i start calculating how many years it will be before they are OUT OF THE HOUSE...isnt that terrible but geeze, i get so tired of my stuff getting broken, not taken care of, or lost...when it is stuff they shouldnt have touched in the first place. I love them dearly but geeze, they make me nuts.
Michelle- So sorry for your loss. Take your time healing.
Ok, time to go grocery shopping. Am i the only one who feels like you are CONSTANTLY going to the store? I just went yesterday but oh well. Hope you all have a great Sunday and stay strong for the week ahead.
