Ten

I went shopping tonight for a new bra because I had a coupon for ten dollars off a purchase at Penneys.
It is so hard shopping for a bra, so many styles to try on and it certainly is a process that requires an addditional person.  After I found acomfortable one, I decided to go try on some pants, as I have given away my size 14 dress pants that I wear to work.  I decided that I was definitely a 12 since my 14's were baggy.  I grabbed the twelves and took in a pair of tens, "just in case".  Then I had a head converation in the dressing room and it went like this, "Do I try on the tens first or the twelves?"  "If I put on the tens first and they don't fit, it will be depressing", but, "If I put on the twelves first and they fit or feel a little loose, then I go for the tens and nobodys feelings get hurt!"  You might be able to tell by the title of my blog which ones I ended up buying!......I was soooo happy I came home and did a celebratory 55 min ttapp!

Kinda Cranky

I woke up kinda cranky today and I did not want to exercise, but I knew that a little session of ttapp would not hurt me and may even lift my mood.  So, I doned the necessary clothing (step 1), set up the tv and dvd player (step 2), and popped open the dvd drawer....this is where I have to decide, commit, make a choice about what I want to do (step 3).  I looked over all the exercise dvd's I have collected and the one that seems to GIVE me energy and wash away the "crankies" is t-tapp.  I decided on the 18 minute basic workout (same as yesterday) with a 12 minute "Leslie walk". Oh, and by the way, I feel better....

Hey!... Its a Miracle!

Now, don't get too excited...I am just really glad I exercised and blogged about it all in the same day!  I was getting a little lazy about it (blogging).  I will admit it is so much better to get it done in the morning and not have to worry about it for the rest of the day and night.  I did ttapp basic plus tempo series, it is an 18 minute workout, so I added a 12 minute walk to it, making it a slim and trim 30 minutes!

Its All Downhill From Here!

I used to focus on the "countdown of days to go" for my project and lately when I have been signing on to The Julie/Nancy Project, I haven't really glanced over at that little window off to the right.  Today I noticed I am getting close to 100 days!  In about a months time, plus 9 days, I will be entering the last 100 days!  It is unbelievable to me I have gone this long exercising.  Even when I was on the swim team in my youth, I did not swim EVERY day! I felt much better today going after a ttapp total workout again and I sailed right through it.  That workout is amazing!

Total T-Tapp Tuesday...

... oh my goodness....it was tough, no lie!  I haven't done a total ttapp in about a week and I felt sluggish and rusty.  My body was starting to feel achy and cranky and I did not want to endure a 55 minute workout.  But, I forced myself to do it and boy am I glad I did!  I feel so much better and I think my day at work will be much better because I feel energized!

Lazy Monday

Here I am playing catch up again.  I think I sit around too much in the morning trying to wake up, sip my coffee and watch the morning news.  Then comes Regis and Kelly and, by then, I should be in my exercise clothes and turning on the dvd player....should be... Dooit Later has come out of hibernation and taken up residence.  I did t-tapp 18 min to tempo (speeded up) and flat stomach dvd which rounded me up to 30 minutes....speaking of rounding up....I have eaten banana chocolate chip muffins lately like I have been on an island for 39 days...they are homemade, and a Weight Watchers recipe....but still...3 a day?

Sunday...Walking in the Dark

It is Sunday nite, and I am playing blog catch up.  I really should not be so lazy about blogging.  I used to be lazy about exercising, but what is so hard about typing a few words about it?  Maybe it is the typing,  because I am not so good at it.  It is probably more the "discipline" of doing it, having to think of things to say about how I took care of my health today...Tonight my husband and I went for a walk in the dark around the neighborhood.  After Bible study ended at 9 pm I went and got my shoes and announced "we" are going for a walk!  "NOW?....in the dark?" he replied, "sure why not?" she said....and so they went....  I think you walk faster in the dark, either because it is dark, or because it is cold, or....maybe it is a combination of both.
