Today is day 16 of the workout year. No loss on scales. Therefore I AM NOT WEIGHING ANYMORE. That's it for me. Stupid, stupid scales. I HATE THE SCALES.
Went down to little gym at lunch. Said I wasn't going to do this again but oh well. Did 2 minutes on the ellip. The thing about this demon machine is that you can't make it stop. Your legs just keep moving and moving. I found a way around that, I just fell off. Not kidding. Then did the bike on fat burner mode for 15 minutes. Then did walking outside for 13 minutes. SO THERE...... 30 WHOLE MINUTES OF ACTIVITY.
Today I ate yogurt, a lunchables with turkey sub, an apple, a 100 calorie pack of midget cookies, diet coke, and crystal lite tea. Supper is yet to be decided.
Somebody told me about a show on fitTV called 'dance your butt off'. Am going to have to find this. Thanks Keisha!
You know those 18 free classes at the big gym? Well none of them are at night or after work. Which means how am I supposed to go to that?????? They have 1 aerobics class at 6 am. I don't know what level this is. I need virgin aerobics level. Maybe I can talk my supv into letting me trade some time so I can go to the dance class? I really want to go to that one. hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Ok, so yesterday I didn't post. I had a job interview, then I worked over, then then then. THAT'S NOT THE REAL REASON I DIDN'T BLOG. The real reason is I weighed two days ago and I haven't lost one stinking ounce.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!NOT ONE OUNCE. Now what do you have to say about that?????
Today I walked the 1/2 mile round trip to work. AND I went to the little gym and did the bike for 19 minutes and TADA 4.50 miles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I did the fat burner cycle this time. I also drank water every other breath all day long. I wish they let us have a locker for the week. I do not like lugging all my clothes, shoes, and crap down to the ghetto parking lot after the workout. UGH! Today is day 9 of the workout?? Do you know this is the longest I have ever done anything athletic???I am pretty jazzed about that.
Now before long we have to start talking about food. Not today though. Well let's talk about it a little bit. I need some lunch ideas and snack ideas.
Also I have another goal-I want to walk (dare I say jog, run) in the Jingle Bell Run this December in Little Rock.I am already planning my outfit right down to the bells on my shoe laces!

Today, I went to the gym at lunch. BIG MISTAKE. First off everybody was there plus some kids!!!!!I thought this was a no kids zone. It took 15 minutes to get down, change, and get in to the workout area. Then I did 15 minutes on the bike i.e. 3.75 miles, then 15 minutes to change back, then 15 minutes to eat a sandwich. My hair was wringing wet with sweat and I felt sticky the rest of the day. No more gym at lunch for me. Not enough time to workout given the constraints of changing, etc. I am not even going to go into the locker room trauma drama, tons of people, yatada, yatada.
At 5:30 this afternoon the temp was 100 degrees. I started my 4 block hike to the car. Although it was incredibly draining, I felt a little stronger today on the walk. Wasn't quite as winded. Had to stop once for about 2 minutes to get my breathe back and drink water. Boy, I wish the downtown trolley went by my parking lot.That would be sweet!
Tomorrow I go back to the after work routine. It's just better that way.

Well, I went to the Big Dam Bridge at 8:00 this evening. By then it was only 85 degrees. Started walking it. The bridge is roughly 3/4 of a mile across it. I probably walked 1/4 of it when it started a thunder storm with lightning. I am all about this exercise deal but not to the extent of getting struck by lightning!
All ages walk, run, bike on the BDB. Saw a mother pushing a double stroller with twins. Thought about my cuz out in New Mexico who pushes her babies like that. She is a fitness guru too. Now regarding the bikers, I must say these people are serious! They are wearing their spandex shorts, helmets, and are bent over on the bikes so much they are practically parallel with the ground. One whizzed by me and provided a nice breeze! Although I would like to eventually ride a bike, I am thinking more of a model like those lime green bikes on the Regions Bank commercial. They are old school and cool!
Got a comment today on the blog that says I should do 5 days of workouts per week. Now this sounds like a plan I could live with. I don't know who you are O.One but I like your way of thinking!
