Workout Accountability: Monday
Good Morning Ladies! I hope everyone had a great weekend. Back to work today, ugh. How did everyone do this weekend?
On Saturday I got in 70 minutes of cardio at the gym. I really tried to bump up the intensity to get out of my comfort zone with my work out. Then I lifted for about 30 minutes after. FI and I had my MOH & her BF over for dinner Saturday night. I tried my best to be good but I think I probably ate one too many tortilla chips and had one too many glasses of wine. It's hard to stay on track when everyone around you is eating whatever and how much of whatever they want. On Sunday FI & I took our dog for a walk because it was so nice out, but that was about all the work out I got in for Sunday. I hope everyone has a good Monday (as good as Mondays can be)

Re: Workout Accountability: Monday
Sunday it was beautiful weather and I ran 5 miles by the canal! So so nice!! Today I have to work late, but I think I'll try to do 3 miles, or stop at the gym on the way home for some elliptical fun.
Hope everyone had a nice weekend and was able to get some fresh air!!
Ok...re-do I guess. Saturday I spent about 70 mins doing cardio at the gym, really trying to bump up the intensity to get out of my comfort zone. Then I did about 30 mins of lifting. We had friends over for dinner Sat night and I did not do so great. I find it hard to not eat when I see everyone else doing it.
Sunday FI & I took our dog for a walk, but that was about the only working out that I did.
Now I'm sure that I put this in here my original post will show up.
I ended up taking off Saturday and Sunday (such a slacker!). We ate pretty badly this weekend so went for a run on Sunday.
Today I'm trying to convince myself to get to weights and cardio, but the weather is SO NICE. I think I'm going to switch entirely to morning workouts this week because the weather in the afternoon is just becoming too nice to miss.
Just finished a three hour administration of our state standardized testing. We now have our lunch break and then meetings all afternoon. Thrilling.
This weekend was great! I did No More Trouble Zones by JM on Friday. I took Saturday off since we had our tasting. Yay! It was awesome. Yesterday I started Week four of C25K. Tonight I'll be doing a JM DVD and maybe some treadmill. We'll see.
Hope you're all having a great day and enjoying the weather, if applicable. :-)
It's a new week & I have to keep it together until Sunday. I will run after work today & tomorrow. Only 3 miles each, so it should feel like a piece of cake. Speaking of cake, I gotta lay off it at least until after my race. We'll see how that goes!
Did 30DS again last night (this time we got FFIL and FI in on the workout too) and boy that hurt. Those push ups are going to be the death of me - but feeling the burn is nice because at least I know it's doing something!
On a sad note, the scale didn't move at ALL in the past week and a half. I am feeling down about it, because up until this point I have been consistently losing 2 lbs per week. I suppose it couldn't have lasted forever, but I thought it would for a while more, I'm no where near my goal weight of 150 (currently at 194). I haven't been bad with my eating (1450 calories per day) except for this weekend that just passed and I have been working out at least every second day for an hour at a time. Just frustrated. We'll see what happens next week I guess! *Whining complete*
Sat: JM 6 week 6 pack
Sun: took the dog for a 30min walk
didn't eat too bad on the weekend (majority of healthy meals) and not as much wine as I normally drink
today: 5k run at lunch and JM Yoga meltdown this evening
Well I squeezed in a cardio session Saturday morning and yesterday and today I have quite literally been chained to my desk writing. I just submitted my final draft of my doctoral dissertation to my committee. I will now start working on preparing my presentation for next week. So no workouts to report the past two days.
However, I am so excited about the fact that, now I'm done with the bulk of the writing, I can now get back to my regularly scheduled workout program. :-) I'm looking forward to Bikram in the am and swimming in the pm.
