    1. 10,000 steps :(

    I'm really having a hard time with step goals lately. I guess I am still recovering from some medical challenges and I'm having a hard time with the weather change. No GOOD excuses, but I really need to get my act together!

    2. swim a mile
    3. under 100G carbs

    Started the Chalean program yesterday. It's a 12-week program so that should take me through January.

    JFT, 11/09
    1. Stay within weight loss calories
    2. Walk the dogs
    3. No alcohol
    4. Workout - today is cardio day!


    What is the Chalean program?

    Chalean Extreme is a Beachbody program with Chalean Johnson (Turbo Jam, Turbo Fire). It's a 3 days-a-week, 12-week weights program broken into three 4-week sections. I like following videos instead of going to the gym for strength workouts so I like it. It's an older program - have had it for years.

    JFT, 10/10 - haha, apparently I time-warped back to Oct yesterday!
    1. Stay within weight loss calories. :)
    2. Walk the dogs :)
    3. Weights workout (Burn Circuit 2) :) Burn Circuit 2 + Speed 1.0
    4. Clean the house :)

    Did well yesterday in meeting my commitments. Struggling a bit with moving into a weights-based program instead of a cardio-based one. I know weights are beneficial in the long run but I miss the immediate calorie burn of more intense cardio sessions. Plus, I miss the cardio "high" that helps me feel better. That's why I threw in a cardio workout after the other one yesterday.

    JFT, 11/11


    1. Cardio day!
    2. Walk the dogs
    3. Stay within weight-loss calories

    Hmmm. Can't find my post from yesterday. I did it on my phone so perhaps it didn't come through. Just as well, since I probably only got 50% of it right!

    J4T Wednesday
    1. Journal faithfully every bite
    2. Water, Water, Water!!!
    3. Try to make sure I get away from my computer every hour, even if it's just for a short walk down the hall.
    4. 30 minutes of activity tonight...no more putting it off!!! No excuses!


    Happy Wednesday everyone!
