Last week's weight: 158.4 lbs.
This week's weight: 158 lbs.
I lost 0.4 lbs this week. Well, I'm not thrilled with that, but at least the scale is moving in the right direction. And has been for the last 2 weeks. So I can't complain, really.
I had a hard time getting myself going today. It was one of those days where I just didn't feel like doing anything at all. You know, like moving. Hehe. But I forced myself to get in the workout when all I wanted to do was sit around & waste brain cells.
But reluctantly - VERY reluctantly - I got around to changing into the workout gear and being productive. I started with 23 minutes on the inclined treadmill. Without AC blasting. Because I needed to feel the sweat pouring off me. I'm not kidding. Then I did The Firm Calorie Killer with Nancy Tucker. I can't even remember the last time I did this DVD. It had fallen behind some other Firm DVDs in my TV stand, so when I saw it, I fished it out & decided to do it. I had wanted to concentrate on cardio today anyway, so this was a timely re-discovery. It had been forever since I did any step aerobics of any kind, so before the cool-down section started, I hit pause & added another 10 minutes of step. Just to keep the blood flowing. I wound up burning 605 calories.
Seriously, the sweat was unreal today. I am not kidding.
Dinner tonight was something I hadn't had in forever - filet mignon. I baked some kale chips with olive oil & sea salt and called it a day. I was thinking about having steak tonight for dinner, then I saw the filet mignon in the store, and said, why not. It was delicious! I had to cut to cut & slice the piece in half and put the rest in a Ziploc bag in the fridge. Tomorrow I will marinade the leftover piece & put it in the freezer for next week.
Did ok today - just ok. Missed a serving of whole grains today, which is not a good thing. But I did get in my other requirements, so I'll just call it even for now.
Hitting the hay soon. Tomorrow will be a beach day, if the weather holds up. We'll see. The damn weather here has been so odd. Just don't get it at all.
Off to blog stalk & then sleepy times.
Good choices!


few women are that sexy sweaty.
ReplyDeleteWow, that's really impressive! You should be so proud of yourself for getting in such a crazy workout after a less than ideal weigh-in. I know lower numbers can be deflating, but you've turned them into motivation. Keep up the great work!
