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 -
Had a great walk/run this morning and actually ran 2.1 miles of the 3.5 total..........that's a first for me!
Cardio: 2.1 mile run and 1.4 mile walk!
Strength: None
Assessment: Having a pretty good week all in all and looking forward to going out to dinner tomorrow night!
TGIF and have a great weekend everyone!0 -
Well the good news is...............................NO TEARS. Just a 3rd sprain of the MCL and doc says not uncommon for up to 6 weeks with healing. I'm on my 3rd now so I'm cool.

Yesterday and today
Cardio: Stationary bike 20 min 130 calories- yesterday only
Strength: probably 70% cardio/ abs. 30 day shred

TGIF everyone!
@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!!!

Happy weekend!
Very strange my post yesterday was cut short. Has this happened to anyone else?
Yesterday's workout: led a circuit class & went to Krav Maga. No strength work.
Today: went to an indoor obstacle course. I really enjoyed dirching the ring swings & falling into the ball pit! Course included wall climbing, rope climbing, rock wall, tire pull, crawling (so nice to have mats under your knees). I tried the battle ropes, first time wow what a workout that is. Afterwards sid a 3 mile light walk/jog.
Assessment: pizza & wine last night, over calories. Today homemade soup for dinner. Calories & macros on target.

Took a rest day yesterday but worked hard around here and then went to PF Chang's for dinner.....yumm.
Today I made it to the gym. I'm trying really hard to enjoy running since I can't really enjoy weight lifting right now. It's going better than I expected and I may go to one of the local tracks tomorrow and just run for as long as I can, without overdoing it of course, and see how I do.
