Stronger Better Faster, Oct 22

Howdy all!

All the wet nasty weather up there is bringing our first crisp night here. This week will be our first hit of the 40s (no rain though :grumble: ). Can't decide if I'll try biking tomorrow as the winds will be fairly strong and it will be chilly for a Texan.

Yesterday I did 90 minutes on the bike and a 30 minute walk. It's interesting not counting calories - I couldn't remember how long I walked. Today is walk, weights, and yoga. I'm also helping a friend move - but I think it's just packing stuff up.

AD - Fruit Loops are sugar with a vitamin, right?

Would be interesting to fill a back pack with our weight lost (not for V or CP - you guys lost more than would safely fit) and carry it around all day - doesn't even sound pleasant - probably give us a shoulder injury.

Happy Workouts!

Well I've returned from vacation with a new found inspiration! This week will be a lot of getting the house organized and prepared for winter, but on Sunday I will begin my 90 days of P90x with a premade 5-meal a day plan. I can't wait! I only did the first 30 days of P90x before life took it's toll and I started making excuses, but I saw great results in that first month. I can't wait to see what a whole 3 months will do! :happy:

So today...
Stay in calories
Drink more water
Unpack and clean the house

Morning,
Not feeling the greatest this morning, thanks to AF. I'm not sure what I will get done today. I was thinking I could at least work upper body if nothing else. I did 217 push ups this morning and strangely found it easy(er). Maybe I just wasn't getting down as low. I want to work on biceps and the back of my arms so I should work them today. Maybe I'll do shred level 1 without the abs.
The weather is great. I'd go for a walk but it's raining off and on. Like Rach, I need to work on the house. I started sorting toys yesterday to put some away and separate them in boxes, so my son can find them easier. Maybe that's what I will work on today. At least I have to be burning a few calories that way.
Looking forward to AF going away so I can get back to hard work. Oh and it's grocery day again. Blah! So making a list.
I rambled on about a bunch of nothing. Hope you all have a great day!

I actually did see how far I could carry two forty pound bags of dog food in the pet store a while ago. . .answer: Not far. Yikes.

Today it's bikram later, my water and my vits. Also, I really need to get back on a work schedule. I'm becoming the queen of procrastination.

Take care of yourselves!:flowerforyou:

Hey everybody. I am recovering from work. Just in case any of you happen to find yourselves in a big computer server room someday, and you see a big red button that says EMERGENCY POWER OFF, here's a FYI for ya - please don't press it. It may look enticing, but I guarantee it creates a lot of havoc for people like me.

Seriously. :frown:

My agenda for the evening - dinner, push-ups, school work. That should do it! Have a good evening.

Hey CP, my hubby is a tech and can so relate to what you said. Ha ha ha. I do feel sorry for you IT people.. Working on computers is a lot like working on cars.
Alright so I gave in and made some of my favorite chocolate cookies (the no bake ones) but only half a batch! I'm sure they won't last long and I will have to work it off tomorrow and Friday. Hopefully I will feel up to it tomorrow.
