Have you exercised today?

[-Kate-]

That's great Paula!!

 

Today was my day off from exercise. I'm trying to do 5 days a week which seems reasonable/doable. I did it for 2 weeks, then my face exploded so I took a week off. I've got 3 days done this week. I'm doing weights tomorrow morning and will do cardio Sat.

Everyone is doing so great! Keep up the good work!

 

I have been sleeping so bad!!! Which makes it very hard to get up in the morning to exercise when I've gotten no sleep! But even though I haven't done my hard core workouts, I have taken the dogs for walks almost everyday, 2-3 miles, I have some major hills, so that helps, and I try to walk fast to get my heart rate up.

 

I did do the treadmill tonight, it was raining, but I'm glad I did, I did 40 minutes, and I felt so good after, part running, part walking. And I also did some arms, while walking and afterwards.

 

I was thinking today that I have 3 months left, ahhhh!! Only 3 months, but if I lose 10 lbs. a month, that would be 30 by the wedding, plus the 10 I already lost, and I would be really happy about that! I just can't fall off the wagon anymore because it really is crunch time, I've had a year to do this, nothing like waiting until the last minute!

 

wow this post is really long, sorry to ramble!

Yesterday I did weights and today I took the dogs on a run. Too bad I ate about 10x what I should have!

Good for you Kate. Today I excercised my right not to excercise....lmao!

I bought 3 workout DVDs today. Billy Blanks Bootcamp Ultimate Workout, Dancing with the Stars Cardio, and NYC Ballet Workout.

 

I did the NYC Ballet one today. I was a little sore from my run yesterday so the stretching felt really good. I liked the video as a whole, but I think a lot of people wouldn't like it. It's ballet - so if you've never done it before it might be rough to follow. It wasn't made for cardio at all. It really worked my arms and booty. I'll probably do this one after work on days when I only lift in the morning.

We went for a 2 hour hike this morning with the dogs, it was so nice outside, wanted to do something outdoors!! But back to the gym tomorrow!

I can't actually believe I went 9 straight days in a row working out last week and the one before. I did take two days off however then decided to bake cookies since I was bored...... yeah....not a good idea! Somehow I managed to bounce back from my mini binge and worked out extra hard with 55 min of cardio and 30 min of weights on Saturday. I'm still losing weight but now my FI is giving me shit!

 

He mentioned that my butt is "shrinking" and he can see hip bones when I lay down. What a butthead! I'm feeling so good about my body for the first time in a while since I can put all of my clothes on and they are loose! I went shopping and everything I tried on was huge. He keeps saying how skinny I'm getting....not telling me how hard I've been working, or that I look good. It's always comments like, "wow you look so skinny" when I think I'd rather just hear how I'm hot!

 

He did say he feels like he got a new and improved version of Amy....but thats only after I mentioned how much hotter I feel with regards to certain activites.....

 

What a bonehead!

I did 50 minutes of cardio before work. My booty hurts from the ballet workout.

 

Amy - boys are silly. He's probably just not used to this new look!

[Amy&Andy]

I'm a nut. I went to gym yesterday morning and did 45 min of cardio then went back after work and tried this "power hour" class that supposidly is for weight training (which I do on my own with free weights).

 

The dude that was teaching it was such a tool. I wanted to giggle so bad the whole time because he was going on and on about how he loves kelly clarkston and then he was mouthing the words to some old 80's song...sounds like "om-i-day-us" its that one with the french looking guy in the old school video. Anyways...you had to be there. I was the only one under 40 in the class. Needless to say it was a joke and I won't be going again. Back to my normal workout today! At least I tried something new.

 

I'm at 4 straight days again....going for 6 this week.
