What an amazing weekend, minus the fact that my wonderful husband is still out of town visiting his father. Thank-you God Kenny is doing well. My weekend consisted of die hard exercise and healthy eating. That's right I said..exercise and healthy. Lets review.
Thursday I ran 3 miles outside on the frontage road. 3 miles outside for the first time. The run was not nearly as hard as I thought it would be. Then I got into the car and went to the gym for an hour of weight lifting. Nine different exercises for arms and abs-3 sets of 12 reps each!
Friday was off from exercise but I went over my girlfriend's Julie's house and I cooked salmon with spinach and strawberry salad topped with fat free poppyseed. Poppyseed is my new favorite dressing, plus it is fat free. Yum.
Friday the girls talked me into going out and seeing the B-side players at the Knotty Pine, I knew I had to get up and run 3 miles with Julie, so I went but only had ONE beer and was home by 12:00 to bed!
Sat-I got up and went over to Julie's house and we effortlessly ran 3 miles then I went home and hit the gym for an HOUR lifting weights. Kari called and asked to go snowboarding.
Tri-athlete! After all day of exercise I rented a couple of movies and took a long bubble bath, stretched, and fell fast asleep.
Sun- I woke up and went on a 2 mile run with Steph near my house and brought all of the dogs. With her dog, Harper , and the two strays that went jogging with us we had a full on dog possse! Such a beautiful day I changed into my bikini (and didn't throw up) and really noticed for the first time by body changing. Getting fit, sculpted, and more defined!! Yay!! It is working!!! Sunday night I grilled for the first time without Nick. And may I just say..not to shabby. Turkey Kabobs with green peppers, purple onion, and mushrooms. Plus a strawberry and cucumber salad with poppyseed dressing, fat free of course! Stellar meal I have to say and practically zero fat!
I decided to start recording all that I eat and found this great app on the iphone that sets goals for my ideal weight and then allows me to enter all that I consume in a day and the app tells me just how many calories I have left for the day. GWG (my girls with goals weight lose club)- I am not out of the contest yet. I pledged to lose 19 pounds and by god I am going to lose 19 pounds. If I lose it then the money from the pot 1,200 bucks goes to buying new clothes that will fit my new body. Pretty amazing that five weeks ago I was running 3 minutes and walking two minutes on the treadmill. I think I have created a monster! Until next time.
