Happy Saturday to you too:)
I just completed a fat burning workout on the stationary bike. I feel good because it is still the middle of the day. I didn't put off my workout til late at night. Though I will do some more so that I am tired and can fall asleep at a decent hour. Tomorrow is weigh ins so I need to be up early to get my measurements taken. Also tomorrow is an anniversary celebration for friends of the family and I will be providing homemade cupcakes and (lord help me) I'm sure many other people will be bringing foods, probably a lot of sweets. I actually have a lot better time at make smart choices when other people are around, because I want people to see me being healthy and it is also a conversation starter to talk about what I am going through on my health and fitness journey. I joined an August challenge group, with different strength training workouts to do, and I am finding ab workouts to be the most difficult to complete. I can do cardio and squats with ease, but ab workouts I need a break every few minutes. Come on core, get your *kitten* together.0 -
Core is tough! I do Pilates & my trainer incorporates core into our workouts so right now I have a really strong core, but man I had to work for it. Nice job getting on the bike early today. Did you follow a specific program for the fat burning workout?
I did a 3 mile run today. I waited until 4:00 in the afternoon so it was a lot warmer than what I'm used to running in. Usually I try to run in the morning but I had stuff to do around the house then stopped to visit my parents on my way to a late morning hair appointment.
Jess it's great that you're motivated to eat well in front of other people! That makes those events so much easier to get through. I saw a bunch of my relatives at a wedding reception mid-June who I hadn't seen since losing so much weight. It felt funny telling them how I did it while I was shoving wedding cake in my mouth. But realistically I do let myself have cake on occasions so I was able to demonstrate there's a way to lose weight without having to give up all the good stuff all the time.0 -
Hi, worked all day then had freaky thunder and rain storm while humid and hot...so didn't swim.0
