Your present circumstances don't determine where you can go; they merely determine where you start.

I decided this morning to jump on the scales (not literally ) I'm up another 1lbs from yesterday but I expected it, as I actually thought it would of been more yesterday... I know it's all mainly water as I'm not peeing that much (sorry you didn't really need to know that :blushing: haha) but I'm drinking loads :drinker:
I woke up with DOMs in a fair few places, I actually have it in my forearm also from the kickboxing class and my right hand is some what stiff, I think I was clinching my fist too much, so next week I'll try to relax my grip!
Anyway, I actually start my lifting program this week. I'm hoping that my sternum doesn't start complaining, it hasn't for a few months. I'll take it easy, so the weights will be lighter but the first few weeks of the program is 60% of max effort anyway... so perfect for testing the waters so to speak.. I'm going to retake all my measurements, do body fat % with Callipers and all import pics, tomorrow so I best go try and find my camera charger!!!!
Happy Saturday Wolverines, hope you have an awesome day, rest, relax, recoup and be awesome :flowerforyou:0 -
@Kelly
I bet you are sore today you've really been throwing everything at your body the last little while. And you are right about the kickboxing, it's so easy to keep everything tense and make it even more sore. Good idea to rest today, watch that sternum
Anyway it's saving grace Saturday (rest day)!!
Have an amazing weekend wolverines.

WOOHOOO! I MADE TOP TEN!!!
Congrats to twin mom and Gillian too!
Was such hard work with nights plus I was eating a ton so I'm very happy with last week's results!
This will be a tough week for different reasons - my current weight is pretty much my set point plateau weight so it will take a big push to drop and weight but I'll be giving it a go
Is it sad that I'm always so excited come Saturday to see what the next challenge is?!
Lol
Have a great weekend deliveries

Congrats Wolverines. 3 in the top 10, now that's the way to do it!
@Shelly
I'm not a big one for telling others how to manage their diet and weight loss as we are all so personalised and what works for one may not work for another Having said that I've been carb cycling for most of the year, except for a couple of months around my surgeries. It has worked really well for me, has stopped me from plateauing as it keeps your body guessing from day to day and week to week what the hell is going on..it's not hard but neither is it a cake walk, there are some things you need to eliminate if not reduce. If you want any info about it, send me a PM. I've felt so much better with it, no more bloating, no water weight gains and a tonne more energy.0 -

My friend has been training to become a Barre 3 trainer when they open the studio near us and has been doing the videos at home for ages. She finally got me to try it last night and I love it. They have a variety of videos that range from 10 min to 60 min. I love that I can get them on my phone so I can do it anywhere and you don't need a lot of equipment (some you don't need any). Think kinder Shred.

Typing it out here to wrap my mind around it. Trying to figure out my week. Running on Tuesday is hard for me due to the kids schedule. I *think* I am going to run errands (get the stuff I need for barre 3 - yoga mat and ball and replace my sneakers if I have time to hit the running store) and then do a 60 min. barre 3 work-out. Problem is that a storm is coming (maybe) which means the next 4 days its supposed to rain (maybe). I hate being wet and cold and I hate the treadmill for anything more than 3. Ugh....
For miles....I lectured all day and made a point of pacing around my classroom. This would fall under leisurely so 1 mile per 20 minutes. I did 160 minutes of lecture which would equal 8 miles. I also vacuumed the house for 20 min. so that earned another mile.
Total miles for Tuesday BEFORE working out is 9.0 -
hi guys, been busy as hell here for us as well, will be back at it tomorrow, but in the meanwhile

wonderful Wednesday.
