    I did Chalean Extreme Burn Phase 1 and Burn it off for just over 1 hour and burned 589 cal. I'm just getting back into working out again after hurting myself. It felt great.

    I went to the beach to watch Hurricane BIll, it was absolutely amazing!!! The waves were crazy and scary all at the same time. It was a very cool way to spend a Sunday afternoon, I've never been that wet with my clothes on before!! The rain felt like pellets beating off of us the wind was so strong.

    I am visiting the family in Portsmouth (UK) this weekend for my ma's birthday, so today me, my sis, her 18 month little girl and my ma went out shopping, which took 3 hours of walking really slowly (for my ma) and running after the baby around the shops.

    After only a bowl of cereal and a cup of tea for breakfast I was exhausted and had a migraine coming on. We stopped for lunch and I was good, chicken salad sandwich no spread, but when we got back to the house I had to have 2 paracetomols and a 20 minute sleep to kick the headache.

    My ma then proceeded to make dinner of creamy chicken curry with single cream instead of double (like that really made a difference :grumble: ) so I only eat half of my serving.

    After calculating the food and the excercise I went 71 calories over my daily amount... :frown: I have not had the chance to do any real excercise here as the area my parents live in is dodgy as hell so I can't really go for a run unless i want to get mugged, shot or robbed :angry: so instead before I jump in the shower tonight I will just do some stretches and maybe a little boogie with my iPod on in my room!

    Lord help me when I come home for Christmas! Are we allowed to take the 3 days of Christmas off?? :happy:

    Suffered a moderate hamstring injury about a week ago, so most of this week has been heat, ice, and stretch. Finally got the pain down enough yesterday to start some more aggressive rehab. So, 30 min on the cross trainer today, but only at about 85% of usual effort. Then lots o' leg work--squats, lunges, leg extension, hamstring curls, hip extension--in addition to normal strength routine. Will do another 20-30 min on stairclimber tonight and hope to go back to running in a week.

    Every day needs some brand new heavies - me and the doggies are heading out for a big walk after the kids are settled in tonight and then maybe some no more trouble zones to end the day.

    I went to the beach and fought the waves. Doesnt sound like much, but in So Fla we dont get many waves. The weather system churning in the NE must have had an effect on the tides here and it was nuts.

    We were 30 ft from the breakers when suddenly the ocean sucked out, and then came all the way up to where we were sitting. PPL went scrambling along the beach. It was crazy stuff.

    We stayed for a few hours and stood int he surf. Man talk about a core builder!!

    Today: 30 mins on the stairclimber @level4 & 35 mins on the elliptical to the tune of almost 700 cals. Yesterday: 45 mins elliptical & 45 mins treadmill in 1 min intervals of walk (3.0) & jog/run (5.5). Had to take it easy today b/c the treadmill really kicked my *kitten* yesterday-only been doing it for about 1 week & never for more than 20 mins :p)

    Got up this morning and ate an okay breakfast, cleaned the oven and the kitchen, ugh, hate the oven. Cleaned the litter box and took the trash out. Did the bike for 25 minutes. About 145 calories burned. Watched a couple of re-runs of The Biggest Loser. Made lunch, ate, and watched a little more TV. Then went and picked up limbs from the yard, filled in a doggie hole, and un-potted two dead ferns to reuse the pots later. Took a cold shower, ate supper, and here I am. Gonna get ready to do the bike again.
