Last night: 22.5 min. treadmill 1 mile up to 3.4, 100 crunches, 3 sets of 8 (5 different movements) w/resistance bands. Then drank a bottle of water! I hope i stick with this exercise thing I seem to have more energy in the morning.

I'm baaa-aack!

DH and I joined a new gym closer to our new house (which reminds me, I need to cancel my membership at the other one!) last week. It's a totally different type of place - in fact it's just one big room with cardio equipment along one wall and a bunch of weight machines in the middle and some free weights at the back - it's 24 hours, but there's no staff except the manager who's there about 3 hours a day. DH and I went in this morning and he walked me thru all the weight equipment - which I'll probably never use, cause in my experience horseback riding works all those major muscle groups anyway.

And that's another exciting thing - I get to start riding my horse again this week!!! (For those of you who have NO idea about me, my horse had a baby about 3 weeks ago, so I haven't been riding her for about 6 weeks now.)

I'm hopefully getting a new job this week (it's for my mom, so it's a done deal as long as we can agree on a salary I can live on and she can afford) that will allow me more time to ride during the day while DH is working and DD is in school, and also then DH and I can hit they gym together in the mornings - me on the treadmill or the other funny eliptical-stepper thing (can't think of what it's called offhand) and DH doing his weights. Cool, huh? Fingers crossed for me!

Fiona - Girl - you never stay still one minute - your are always in some kind of change. I guess that will keep you young.......
Is the other cardio machine your thinking about just an eliptical machine? The gym sounds like the one I go to - nothing fancy - just enuf to get down to business. Nothing wrong with that...
congrats on the new job with your mom, sounds great!

It's definitely not an elliptical, but similar - that low-impact type movement. The foot pedals sort of...swing?...kind of like the Tony Little Gazelle only way more high tech. Sort of a cross between an elliptical and a Nordic Track.

Mary - Sad to admitt there was no noticable loss on the scale this morning. But I am going for 5 more weekly sessions. The way it might help is that it could correct my constipation problem. Also I will continue to cleanse so maybe that will effect the weight alittle down the line.....(or down the tube...lol)
