Before After

Listen To Your Heart...


...and your stomach!

I just got back from the gym and my body just gave it to me today. I guess it was getting happy with the 2 days off and I'm like ooooh no buddy, you are getting a work out! I was planning on running my .continuous .5 mile then alternating between resting for .2 mile and running .4,.3,.2, & .1. But I started running and started having an asthma attack. I was like "OH NO!!" because I didn't have my inhaler and haven't had one in forever. So I had to stop running and started walking. Then I was like I need to burn some calories so stubborn me started jogging instead. So I alternated walking and jogging for 20 minutes, then did 20 minutes on this Cybex machine (a low impact cardio machine that works on your hips and thighs) so because of my stupid asthma I only got in 40 minutes of cardio burning 400 calories. Then I did 150 abs. Not to bad for having an asthma attack huh?! LOL.

Then I got off the treadmill and my stomach was in knots. It was rumbling and do all kinda crazy stuff. I'm not a regular "go-er" so I was like "not noow! Not this" and I have a phobia with public restrooms so I was I'll wait til I get home..Welp,nope didn't happen. It was like everything that could go wrong to detour my work out. Blah!

Also, the gym was PACKED, I never usually go this early (6:30p) so I couldn't get on the bike because they were taken the whole time. Then I couldn't do my abs on the mat because it was full, ugh! So I will stick to my late night work outs so I can work out with ease and peace.

Everyone has been raving about these Brooks running shoes, I might have to check those out.

To keep up with the WW group challenge.

B-Special K bar & banana
S-100 cal oatmeal cake & orange
L- Grilled chicken salad
S- WW peanut butter bar & smart snack
D- TBD (roomie is cooking nachos and I really don't need all that sodium but I don't feel like cooking either, decisions-decisions)

So my eating has been very good today.

Tonight is another party...Roomie is trying to get me to go, if I do I will not be drinking at all. I do not need it to have a good time and I definately don't need it to eat up anymore of my points.

Tomorrow I will do a Jan. recap of my progress, look out for that ;)

Ok, I'm off to finish watching the California Democratic Debate...I'm very big on politics and am pretty informed so this is like prime time TV for me (Im kind of a nerd) and that's all I'll say about that, I'll save my political views for other journal.

STOMACH...

I don't know what it is but I'm feeling very sick to my tummy right now too!  Yucko!!!!  I hope you are feeling better girl. 

tummy troubles.

Hope they've worked themselves out..so to speak.

Did you go to the party?  Did you behave?

I'm with you with the asthma.  You should always have your rescue inhaler with you though silly girl.  ok...enough scolding...xoxox   have a great day!

Congrats on the gym

Just don't push yourself too hard!!!  Glad you had a good workout.  How'd you do on the nacho dinner?  That sounds good...I"m hungry now!!!

Have a great weekend!!!

Right on!

I'm with you on that (public restrooms) - hate 'em

Keep up the good work - have an awesome weekend!!

Gym

Holy cow - you really pushed yourself this time!  Too bad the gym was packed - I HATE THAT!

Have a wonderful weekend!

Angel

Yay you!

You're doing this, girl!

Public restrooms!

Hate em'!  Especially for more serious "business"! 

Sorry your gym experience wasn't so good!

Wow!

I'm impressed that a college girl from Texas was watching our debates last night! I watched some it last night and the night before. My daugher, who is a sophomore in HS had to watch it for homework. I thought last night was a lot more interesting than Wednesday. And I couldn't believe that Guiliani & Edwards dropped out. Who can blame them. Anyway. I'm really not into politics, but I try to stay informed.

Well, its a tough life you live with all that partying, but someones got to do it!
