gardenerjoy: I like your attitude about the goals. I feel disappointed that I won't make mine, but at least I know I won't use it as an excuse to take the rest of the month off. And as long as I'm still exercising, well, that's the whole point! I hope you have a great trip to NYC!!

Not doing to bad considering the major slack off last week. I'm admitting defeat to making my goal for strength but I've decided I should be doing more cardio then strength anyway so it's okay...maybe my justifications are part of the problem No weight gain ove the last week but no weight loss yet as of saturday

Had to take my husband to the urgent care center last night, so no workout AGAIN. What a month.
Ferumbras: Thank you! He's fine. He developed a rash over his entire body yesterday, and that seemed worrisome, but it seems to be just an allergic reaction to the antibiotic he was on. He's not allowed to get sick any more this month though, as I need to make up some time at the gym!
I feel disappointed that I won't make mine, but at least I know I won't use it as an excuse to take the rest of the month off. And as long as I'm still exercising, well, that's the whole point! I hope you have a great trip to NYC!!
No weight gain ove the last week but no weight loss yet as of saturday
