Quickie

Tonight was a quickie.  I still did 30 minutes, but, it was a pilates with band routine.  I did 10 minutes each of total body, abs and flexibility.  It felt easy but I had to "go there" to recuperate from Jillians Shred dvd last night.

All Of Me

Tonight, all of me was back!  I came home from work and changed right into my exercise clothes.  I finished watching Oprah and did my 30 minutes of exercise. I did Jillians 30 day Shred which is a real thigh burner and only 20 minutes long.  Then, I did a 12 minute speed walk dvd.  I think the difference today was coming home from work and getting right into the workout clothes, it set the body and mind into the eventual exercise mode.

Half Of Me

Tonight, I just didn't care if I exercised or not.  I am not feeling great and layed down on the couch at 6:30 pm.  My husband kept telling me what time it was in hopes of spurring me off the couch.  When that didn't work, he put on his exercise clothes and came down the stairs.  This, of course, loosened the glue that held me down and I, with no enthusiasm, went and put my clothes on.  He chose the dvd (L.S. walk) and only the lower half of me participated.  My head, heart and stomach were not into it, my knees, legs, and feet went through the motions...

CHESTer

Tomorrow is December 14th, exactly 3 months from when I started this project.  I will stop by the Doctors office tomorrow to weigh in on their scale to see if I am decreasing the population of Bootyville and Tummy Town.  I will have to tell you I discovered a new place called "Chester"  I know for sure CHESTer has lost some of its population...remember when I said my underwear was relieved?  Anyway, my husband may accuse me tomorrow of trying to kill him, we both did Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred dvd and I heard him huffin' and puffin'....tomorrow morning I may just get a little chuckle to start my day!

Darn It!

I did it again....exercised and forgot to blog about it.   I really, really, get aggrevated at myself when I do that.  I had a friend come over and we spent all day, from 10 am till 11:00 pm sewing on projects and cooking.  It was so much fun!  She brought her pressure cooker over to show me how it works and she made a roast in it.  We had roast, potatoes, asparagus, and salad.  It was a meal to die for!  While she was doing a second cooking project, I did a 30 minute walk dvd and after my exercise I went to the kitchen to take a peek at the results...I told you earlier I was easily distractable!  The next time my friend comes over to sew I will tell her I am not really famliar with how a crock pot works......

Tired

 Feeling tired, I put in the Pilates with Band dvd and did a 30 min workout at about 9:30 pm.  I really have no thoughts to give you about it right now...I am too tired...

Progress

Wow! I had alot of energy tonight!  After Survivor aired, I put a chocolate cake in the oven, and did a 45 minute walk dvd (4 Big Miles).  My husband joined me, which is always a kick.  he always has the most bored look on his face while going through the motions.  I breezed right through the 4 miles and felt like I still had enough pep in my step to do a fifth!  I think some of the other cardio intense routines (Jillian's Shred, and Steve Maresca's Make-Me-Over) have conditioned me a little farther...so, now I say... "Bring It ON!!"
