I had my first time at the gym this past week. My oldest picked up her little sister from school, I had time to kill. My body made the motion of getting up, changing into work out clothes; while my mind was screaming "no, no, no....you're too tired...!" Thank heavens I didn't listen!
I had a great 30 mins at the gym and look forward to doing it again. In the meantime I work out as usual at home, whenever I can. I've been making sure though to get up and take 30 mins to work out before starting my day. Then I do a quick 10 mins power walk taking my daughter to school. We go really fast so it's a power walk to me!
I'm still eating right. I'll probably soon turn into a vegetable! I love my cheat days because I don't say no to eating something that I want to without thinking about it first! There is no thinking when it's a cheat day, you just enjoy whatever it is you're going to eat!
On Friday night it was Chinese.....Chow Mien, some rice and Mandarin chicken and Orange Chicken....at least, it turned out to be broccoli with Steak and Orange chicken because we had take out and they messed up the order! It was still good!
On Saturday, I had a particularly stress-filled day! We were late getting home, so while I cook dinner, meatballs w/Spaghetti, I indulged in two scoops of ice cream and diet coke in a glass - ala ice cream soda! Yummy, although when hubby tasted it he made a face and choking noises!LOL! I ruined the ice cream he said! Yeah, whose taste bud is satisfied uh hon?!
Well, Monday draws near, and it's back to the grind stone again....watching and eating and working out....just another week in trying to lose weight land!
Keep up the good work out there, don't give up!
