Isn't it funny...
...how after putting off a workout one day then making sure you do it the next day can turn your world back around to a better place? I FEEL TEN TIMES BETTER TODAY! I am really growing attached to my gazelle - last night I did an hour like I did on Monday but I worked harder and burned an extra 100 cals - 548. Ahhhh the high of victory! Thanks KimQuilts for putting your arm around me when I needed it most!
Afterwards I finally tried my new Bean - and I'm a believer! It's the perfect tool to ease me back into working my core! If you've been wondering - GO FOR IT! And they offer so many different activities for it so you're not stuck doing monotinus crunches the rest of your days. It offered my heavy frame the perfect support to start building my strength - it's genius. And it served a second purpose in our house, too: After I was done, my 7 year old DD lounged on it while she played her DS Lite. LOL See, now you CAN'T resist getting one for your house, too!
I'm sad to say my "TMI" post from Wednesday is still a forefront matter today. PreciousWade suggested JuicyJuice before bed each night...I'm altering it a bit, putting my own spin and drinking prune juice with fiber additives. I was disappointed to see it's 160 cals per serving but after consideration of my uncomfortable predicament, I'm going for it. I've been doing a fantastic job with my fresh fruit and veggie intake - I've eliminated as much processed and canned food from my diet as possible. FRESH FRESH FRESH. Sooner or later my levy has to break? I know, I know, again - "TMI!"
FOR MY RUNNING BUDDIES - I picked up the latest issue of Runner's World last night (I used to be a subscriber back in my glory days) and saw so many articles you C25K and new 5K folks would be interested in - 5K training tips for beginners. And TXLass, they had a whole article on selecting the right shoe and another one on socks on the market! I know, a little late lol If you're looking for some applicable reading and you haven't grabbed that issue yet - grab one this weekend!
I can't tell you how thankful I am I put in such a hard workout last night. I'm mentally refreshed and I have a renewed physical energy! LIFE IS GOOD!
