244.7 (+.2)

Next week will be better.

I haven't been intentionally ignoring this blog... my birthday was on Friday and it's been pretty crazy around here lately. I got a new job as a nanny working two mornings each week and I'm still trying to get back to "normal", or at least figure out what "normal" will be this year. Anyway...

I went to the gym today and did the treadmill:
5 min warm-up @ 3.7MPH
2 min jog @ 5.3MPH
3 min walk @ 3.7MPH  ...repeat cycle 3x for a total of 20 minutes.

And I may go back to the gym with hubby tonight, or I may do a DVD.

[Update: I did the 30-Day Shred DVD tonight, too.]

244.5 (-1.8)!

Back to my pre-Christmas weight! :)

I did the treadmill today.
5 min warm-up @ 3.7MPH
4 min jog @ 5.2MPH
3 min walk @ 3.5MPH
1 min jog @ 5.2MPH
3 min walk @ 3.7MPH
2 min jog @ 5.2MPH
3 min walk @ 3.7MPH
1 min jog @ 5.7MPH
3 min power walk from 3.8-4.5MPH

Man, being away from the treadmill for a couple of weeks really shows! I had a tough time today!

I just did week 2 of the 30-Day Shred DVD.
KILLER! So much harder than the first one!

Sidenote: I've decided to have oatmeal for breakfast every day this week. We'll see how that goes. :)

This is the best [free] website that I've found to track calories in and calories out. You also get your own profile; there are [free] message boards and blogs, recipes, articles, such a HUGE support system! The weight started coming off when I truly started using this [free] site and all of its helpful tools to their full extent. Did I mention that it's all FREE?!?
