Double Whammy

Today I did a double whammy.  I whammed it up one side and down the other.  First, I whammed it up with Jillian's Shred Level 2 and then I whammed it up again with a 2 mile mostly jogging, sometimes walking workout.  I am feeling kinda like a pot roast and potato dish, the one I consumed last night with 3 pieces of french bread slathered with butter.  Tonight, we ate out at the Mission Bistro and I opted for the salmon but again had a tuscan roll with butter.....when will it all end?   Tomorrow is Garretts birthday, and we will eat out again.... is there a light at the end?

Companion Walk

Tonight was another walk with my husband.  It was just a walk, no jogging.  We had a big dinner with my son Garrett and Marshall and my parents.  Garrett is visiting home from the Marine Corp and I made one of his favorite meals, pot roast in the crockpot.  We had salad and warm from the oven french bread.  I made fudgy brownies and we had mint chocolate chip ice cream for dessert.  Needless to say, I ate with abandon and stuffed myself to the point that all I could do was walk.  So, thirty minutes of walking and off to bed early.

Togetherness

I had a walk/jog date with my husband tonight.  It was very spontaneous and only two miles but it does go  by faster when you have someone to walk, talk, and jog with.  It was a cool summer night and the sky was clearly showing off the "evening star" Venus.  I was so glad to have a companion to share my sweat with!

Something New

Today I got to do something new and it was free!  I recently got a new job and while on a tour of the facilities I discovered they have a nice workout room!!  So today I took my locker supplies and a lock and went out to try it all out.  I did the elliptical trainer for 30 minutes then played around on all the Nautilus machines and weight lifting equipment.  I had the room all to myself and it was great!  I think I was there about an hour...

Can You Believe It?

I can hardly believe on a beautiful summer evening I did an indoor walking dvd.  It has been really smokey outside.  There are wildfires raging mid state around Wenatchee and Chelan and the smoke has drifted in our direction making the outdoor air thick with smoke.  I did a Leslie 4 mile walk.

This Is A First

I have been wondering all this time what I would do if I felt sick but still had to workout.  Well, it happened today.... I worked out anyway.  I didn't want to, and the least stressful was a walk, so with my Tummy Town aching I walked...belching all the way.  If I could have stopped and thrown up I would have felt much better.  But this was during daylight and I really didn't want anyone to see me tossin' cookies in their front yard.  To my suprise I felt much better after the walk!   An apple a day and a walk, keeps the Doctor away ;)

Razzle Me Wednesday

Well, to be completely honest I did not want to get up off my Bootyville and exercise.  But then I remembered thats how Bootyville grew in population.  So I drug my tired Booty to another comfortable position, one that has petals and is in front of a television, my recumbent bike.  I did my obligatory 30 minutes and went 5 minutes over just to be sure...
