Hello everyone. Still busy busy busy around here. Yesterday was my mom's birthday and today is DH's birthday. I have to make him a German chocolate cake at some point, also trying to clean house (again--neverending battle with two little boys spreading toys around it and spilling stuff all the time). Luckily I put coconut pecan frosting on his cake, and I
loathe coconut, so at least I'm safe from pigging out on birthday cake. Whew.
My only exercise so far today was a nice long walk earlier around the mall. It's a really really big mall (2nd largest in the U.S., I think), so does that count? I also bought myself a 25-lb barbell and carried that back to my car, so that was a little extra burn.
I had hoped to do some more formal exercise, but no chance yet. At least I had planned this to be a week of more gentle exercise, so I am not messing up a rotation.
Oh, and in other boring Lainie news, TTOM finally started today (it kept acting like it was coming, but now it's definitely arrived) so I feel sort of blah and headachey. Ugh.
Belinda, congrats on the loss--wow!
Amelia, glad you are enjoying the treadmill. I have still not talked DH into an exercise bike. x(
Kristine, sorry you didn't get the play date. It can be so hard to schedule those things. It's even harder now that my oldest DS is in Kindergarten--we have to work around school. On the other hand, he doesn't need as many play dates because he's with his friends all day.
Lori, good luck with your more careful eating. You know I'd love to be even at your bigger size.
Carrie, ha--my DH is already worried I'm going to go all body builder on him and I am much less fit than you are. The other day he was surprised to notice that I had 20 lb dumbbells and said maybe he'd better start working out more before I get stronger than he is.
I sincerely doubt that will happen even if he doesn't work out.
Cheryl, so good to see you again and glad you're feeling better!
Shannon, how do you like Slo-Mo? I think it might be a big part of my next rotation. I've only done the workouts once so far, but I liked them.
Stacey, sorry to hear you are still sick--hope you get better soon.
