[buttercup78]

GM LADIES-
Yesterday was supersets. workout was 35 min and I burned 478 calories. It said no intervals after the weight work and I was okay with that

SS#1 bulgarian split squat/elevated push up
SS#2 pull up/bear crawl
SS#3 kb swings/ burpees
Ab circuit: turkish getups, plank, side plank

My lats are sore today which never happens and my abs are tight.

Linda-18 years ?!!!That gives me quite a bit of hope. Let me ask you, were you depressed right after you quit smoking? Did you gain weight? The reason I ask is I have gained weight and my habits have not changed, and I have been depressed ever since I quit. I go to the doc next month and hope I get some blood work checked to make sure something else is not going on...how was your dessert?

Running late this AM. Problems with my cat. Long story!

I crawled back in bed, was late getting up....didn't feel like working out....feel sort of lousy today....but forced myself to work out.

I did Prevention Fitness Drop it in Ten. I liked this very much. Max HR was only 158 but I feel good about that considering my back was killing me and I wanted to sleep! Burned 606 calories.

Buttercup - I quit smoking about 15 or so years ago. I was SEVERELY depressed for about 6 months or so. I chopped my hair off and slept tons of hours. I hate to say this, but I've been a neurotic, basket case, hyper dog since I quit. I can't relax for crap! I have that sort of personality by nature and I'm a recovering addict.....so take what I say with a grain of salt. Just know that it does get better and if you continue to have problems, maybe your doctor can give you something. I was a chain smoker for many years....and had a very bad habit to break. It isn't easy, but if I can do it, ANYONE can!! It is tough....but hang in there and you will prevail. It takes tons of determination. Think healthy treats and try not to deprive yourself. I did not gain weight when I quit.

Deb - I posted last night in response to kelly coffey.

Have great workouts.
