    I swam carefully. I was having massive knee pain this morning. Then I cleaned house some more. Made dinner and some chocolate no bake cookies for the kids that are staying with us for 4 days. I'm beat to pieces.

    Weights this morning; triceps and chest. Day 4 of the 50/50! Going for a walk at lunch.

    I told my trainer that I probably wouldn't be seeing her through the summer; she said that's okay, because she knows I've got the motivation to keep at it without her. Then she came up with a new lifting plan that will work better for me at my gym. She's all kinds of awesome!

    I swam for 45 minutes. And I walked till my legs were dead. And then I kept on going because I'm a mom. I ended up walking 6.78 miles and climbing 43 floors according to my Fitbit.

    Day 5 of the 50/50!

    Hubby wanted White Spot for dinner last night because he forgot to thaw the chicken. I was just about to tell him no when he said 'We could walk there.'
    So, 45 minute walk for dinner last night.

    20 minute walk this morning; we'll see if I go for a lunchtime walk. :)

    I finally got a rest day in!!!!!!!!! Iris spent the night last night with a friend and then when she came home another friend wanted her to spend tonight. And the older kids were at music fest from 8am to 930pm. I got a nap in today. Finally. I feel much better.

    It was a gorgeous weekend, so I spent the last two days installing raised garden beds and shoveling 4 yards of dirt. I think I am going to be sore tomorrow.

    I had another rest day. I made waffles and sausage for the boys we housed. After breakfast I took them on a tour of town. After all there is way more to town than my house, McDonald's, and the high school. Then I took them to the ferry terminal and went out to help a friends mom with a sewing project. I didn't even cook dinner. We went out. I feel much better today. My legs aren't nearly as sore as they had been.

    Oh @SeeAhtter787 , I'm coming to visit you!! Waffles. . . . .

    Saturday was weights again, legs and shoulders. Yesterday was a 20 minute run. Today was a 20 minute 'rest day' walk (day 8 of the 50/50) and it's so gorgeous out there I might go for a mid-afternoon walk!

    18 holes of golf today on this beautiful 89 degree day in NC.

    Did not eat all my allotted cals. Going on a two day mini trip tomorrow so will save them for that.
    Will be walking and hiking a lot. Fun times.

    20 minute treadmill run this morning. The new treadmills at the rec center have 'courses' you can run; instead of TV, they display different running trails! This morning I was running in California. And the imagery slows down/speeds up according to the speed you're running!

    I have to send my dry suit off for repairs so I hit the weight room at the rec center. I thought I was a wimp but I guess doing 50 butterflies with 50 lbs isn't as wimpy as I thought. I managed 100 crunches on the crunch machine with 60 lbs. I did leg squats (I lost track of how many) with 60 lbs too. For being a "fat girl) I have power that is didn't know I had.

    Hit the weight room again today. Ended up sick yesterday. Weirdest thing ever.......went to bed with a 101.5 fever and woke up at 2:30 when it broke however I was really really tired yesterday so I took the day off. Fever lasted all of about 6 hours. After weight room I walked the track until it was time to go eat lunch with Iris.

    Last night Yin Yoga at my studio, 75 mins. Holding postures for 5 mins.

    Started doing some laundry this morning and we had a flood. Our plan still is to get a walk in after the Town comes and checks this out. Grrrr!

    Yesterday I hit the weight room at the rec center. Sadly half of the exercises I do is not in MFP databank. And I walked the lake with the dogs.

    Today my knee was killing me so I'm taking it easy.
