Hey everyone, it's great to come here Monday morning and see how active you were over the weekend. Makes me feel guilty for my weekend!
We drove to No. Cal. Sat. morning for a family party and returned home Sun. morning for another family event here in So. Cal. So I spent a lot of time sitting in the car and did not have time to exercise either day. But during the week, I got in 3 weight lifting sessions and 4 cardio sessions so I don't feel too bad. I am ready to get back on track today. I changed my weight lifting routine and will try that out later today.
Some good news ... I discovered last night that I am in a smaller size! My size 12 jeans are a bit snug, but I can get them up, zipped, buttoned, and they're not too uncomfortable!
No workout for me this morning, I have a awful cold, and while trying to work out to my tape this morning, I couldn't breathe and would start coughing.
Well no real workout yesterday, but I cleaned out all of my closets, and hauled all those bags away, and stepped up and down on my stool so many time syesterday that I am sore today, so i am calling that my exercise, Lord knows it wore my but out.
Today no prod please but no exercise this evening, we have a long mid year meeting with our Community rep for our exchange student, to see how things are going, I have lots to say so this is gonna last a while! So we are calling today my rest day!
today I got off early, like I hoped I might and made it to the Y. I did 30 min of weights, 30 min program on the treadmill and then stretched. Before I'd never have time to work up a real sweat but today I did! I feel so good, but I don't think I stretched out my arms good enough...they are still a bit shaky and I bet they'll be sore in the morning.
This afternoon I got lots of cleaning to do and then I'll get my girls from the babysitter. It's kind of lonely around here without them, but I've got so much to do I'd never get it done with them!
Another 2 mile WATP this morning, that makes 21miles for the month all ready . My original goal was 30 miles, I can see I am going to have to raise it quite a bit!
How are everyone else doing with their goals? I noticed today that my jeans weren't as tight as htey had been. A small victory but I take all I can get
Come on ladies... looks like quite a few have fallen off here. You and I both know we have to exercise for good health, not just weight loss so get back in here and get back to business!!
This morning I got in 66 minutes before I left for work. Was one of those mornings where I did not want to get up, but I did. I hate 4:30!!
um...couldn't get my lazy behind out of bed this morning to make it into the y before work...so tonight I "plan" on doing one of my Denise Austin recordings on the DVR. I have to go through and erase some of them since I don't do them everyday. They are starting to pile up!
Yesterday: 70-minute upper-body workout. Took longer than expected because I started a new weight routine and had to learn several new exercises. Seemed easy yesterday, but I feel it today (in a good way).
Today: 30 minutes on the treadmill doing a "trail" program and 30 minutes on the recumbant bike doing a "random hill" program.
Went to slim-n-tone workout--have started stasting with 3-5 minutes on the elliptical. The two end pieces are either the elliptical or the recumbent bike-which hurts my knees (trying to strengthen knees from a motorcycle accident almost 2 years ago--not make them hurt worse)--one of the girls that comes has a bad back and doesn't do all pieces of the equipment and I was on my last machine and ready to go on the elliptical and she took her turn so I went and did another round on the stationary equipment and then when she was finished I did 8 minutes on the elliptical before stretches. I am trying to work my way up to 10 minutes consistantly. Somedays I can barely get through the whole room.
Another 30 mins and some light AB work also. Keeping the motivational juices flowing. I find I think less about exercise now that I am actually doing it!
So we are calling today my rest day!
