Still coming down from my vacation. It's all good.

Wow. It's been three weeks. Welp, I went on vacation for a week and a half and ate pretty terribly during that time. Surprisingly I only gained 3lb.

Tonight I went to my first Carido Dance Party class. It was way crowded and super hot. But it was a good workout and it was high-energy. This class is Monday and Wednesday nights. I've also started the Aerobics class again, MWF mornings. Whoo! It's going to be a good autumn!

I found this on a random website and I really liked it:
70% of the hard work is done in the kitchen
15% of the effort is to get a good night's rest (8 HRS)
15% of the effort is in the gym

It was my anniversary. Not an excuse, just letting you know that I know why I gained. I've got two weeks before my family reunion, so this has got to go.

Ugh. Why do I allow myself to slack when I go out of town?!? It was my anniversary, and the only half active things I did all weekend were horseback riding (just walking, nothing strenuous) and dancing at the Katy Perry concert. ;) And I ate too much delicious food. Tomorrow's weigh-in is not going to be good. :(

Yesterday in class we did progress testing and I have progressed in ALL fields. I am so proud of myself! The test is interval training and you count how many times you do the given activity in a minute. The activities included jumping jacks, crunches, biceps, triceps, and squats among other things.

Today, I went to the gym and did interval training on the treadmill. It feels like it's been so long since I've done that. It was a good workout.
