    Thanks Niner, I appreciate the comment. I've been working really hard at both losing the last few pounds and maintaining my strength.

    Can't believe it's Monday already. I'm pretty sore from the last 2 gym days so just took the dog out this morning for a walk/run. Slowly building up her ability to run again after a shoulder injury. We ran about a mile in a couple of slow intervals and then walked the rest of it.

    Cardio: 2.75 mile walk/run.

    Strength: Tomorrow

    Assessment: Over ate a little over the weekend, but didn't gain, didn't lose either......LOL

    Have a great week!
