Ok, here goes:
Cardio- ran 2 miles. My first ever full two miles actually! At mostly 5mph with about 1/2 mile total of "sprints" (7mph, .10 at a time) and hill climbs. Feeling proud of that. Cals read at 320ish.
Strength- not a lot. Upper body, 2 sets 10 flys at 10lb. 2 sets 10 rows at 10lb. I was a little crunched for time.
Assessment- feeling great despite cutting my workout short, really proud of that run. 660 cals left for the day, meeting friends out for drinks. I'll keep it to 2 glasses of wine or vodka/soda with a light dinner and likely hit my cal goal close to the nose (with workout calories eaten).0 -
@ren3liz, welcome to the group!!!!
Struggled today after a virtually sleepless night............ugggghhhh. I hate it when I can't sleep. Couldn't summon the energy for the gym which means I'll have to go this weekend one day to make up for it but that's fine. Hopefully, I'll sleep tonight and feel great tomorrow!!! I'll either head out with the dog to the park or go to the gym. My shoulder is still really painful but I'm trying to just stay positive and keep moving.....some days are better than others.........LOL
Zero strength training today but I did climb 10 flights of stairs to my balcony to get a little cardio in.......LOL
Assessment: Homemade carnitas tacos so I might be a little over today.....LOL0 -
Well I've been slacking... on keeping up on the thread!
Monday - planned rest day but walked 3 and a half miles with the wife in some cold windy stuff
Tuesday - Killed it on shoulder and arm strength stuff. Then did the elliptical for 45 minutes doing some tough intervals. 4.71 miles and 655 calories by machine estimates.
Assessement - I've been doing well on food and weight. Have made the decision to stay fitness focused for now, and not worry about weight as much. As it warms up I might decide to cut a few more pounds, as I don't want any bulk slowing me down on the bike or doing body weight type stuff.
@ninerbuff Belated happy birthday. Now I know I have an "excuse" if I don't train as hard as you. That extra 54 weeks of age is a killer!
@ren3liz Welcome to the mix
Glad to see everyone else is staying on it too.0 -
Morning all. Wife's outta town until Saturday so my eating is probably going to suck. I suppose its better than drinking way too much. lol

Strength- 10,8,5,4,3,3,3,1,1,1,1,1,1,2,2 Yup, all bench. I think I'm going to give squating a shot on Saturday and see how it goes.
Assessment- Pepperoni pizza and a couple of beers. Not sure how far over but I went over. lol0 -

Welcome, @ren3liz
I've come down with a cold, so no workouts so far this week. Hoping to do something tomorrow, or Saturday at the latest. Fortunately, it's a "light" cold.
Food: been on target, except for a little pre-determined splurge on Monday.

Thx for the warm welcomes everyone. Happy Friday!
Hit the gym briefly this morning.
Cardio- 30 minutes total split between rowing, fast walking at high incline on the treadmill, and stationary bike. Just couldn't stick with one thing his morning and I was lacking energy. Will plan for another - better - workout this evening.
Assessment- a lot of days eating at or just under maintenance lately. Wine of the month club came, oops. Diet has been overall healthy, but over my calorie goal to lose.0 -

TGIF and have a great weekend everyone!0 -

@ninerbuff hope you did a happy dance upon hearing the good news...then you could log the exercise calorie burn for said dance!0 -
@luluinca if my best wishes for you shoulder could heal, you'd be in that pool out lapping everyone yesterday!
Thanks, that's really a great wish!!! I have an appt Tuesday with an orthopedic surgeon, not sure how much I'll know at the first appointment but I'm pretty sure it's a rotator cuff tear.............hopefully not too bad and hopefully I'm wrong!
This is my 4th injury in 2.5 years but I'm not giving up................there's always a work around an injury and the other 3 went away with time and effort so I'll fix this one too!
The thing I'm most worried about is whether I'll be able to swim this summer............but I'm determined!!!
