    What is your workout routine?

    I'm currently doing TurboFire. So Tuesday-Sunday I do my scheduled TurboFire class which incorporate cardio every day and strength training 3 times a week. Mondays are my "off" days but normally I run on those days (either outside or at the gym). I try to run 3 miles...(warm up 2 mins, jog a mile, walk 90 sec, jog a mile, walk 90 sec, jog a mile, cool down 3-5 mins).

    I find that I have to schedule all of my workouts and do them just as soon as I get off work before picking up the kids. I find that by scheduling them (and actually entering them onto my calendar) I am able to commit to doing them. I like being able to see what I'm supposed to be doing that day. If I just say that I'll "go to the gym" I have a tendency to find something else that is more important, or go to the gym and get bored and leave early, or I wander around from machine to machine not sure what to do.

    165.8 this week. Stayed about the same, but that's really progress since this time last week I was dehydrated due to illness. That's my story and I'm sticking to it!

    My only exercise routine is walking the dogs 2 or 3 times a week. :ohwell:

    Thanks for the mindset challenge. Being nice to myself is hard, but I'll try to cut myself some slack if only for this week.

    Today's weight 151.4...Slow & steady & slow...but I guess with my age and the way I've treated my metabolism by yoyo dieting for over 20 years, I should be grateful I'm losing a pound a week.
