weight loss
So, no loss since my last weigh-in, which was before the cruise. Well, I guess there was. I lost the couple pounds I gained on the 10 day vacation! But, I did lose in inches and body fat %, so I was happy with that.
I've turned it up a bit at the gym.... after my session with my trainer, I usually did 30 minutes of cardio on the treadmill. this week, both days, I did 45 minutes. And upped the incline to 5 or 6. I vary it a bit, and the speed. I burned 360 calories in just 45 minutes on Wed. Plus what I burned in my session. She had me doing a lot of kickboxing stuff this week, which I like.
It's so nice to see a difference in what I can do now, from what I could do when I started working with her. I could only hold the plank posistion for a few seconds, and now I can do several sets of 10 seconds. It's still tough, but easier. And tricep dips! I could only do a few before I had to stop and rest. Wednesday I did 15 without stopping.
And now she has me keeping a food journal. I'm writing down everything I eat, the time, and the calories. I'm not supposed to eat it if I don' tknow the calories. She went over my entries for a couple days and made notes and suggestions. I wish I liked more vegetables! I need to start cooking more. I actually bakes a fish filet on Tuesday, and steamed veggies and a potato in the microwave. Love the Ziploc steam bags!
I've been pretty good. Knowing she's going to see what I've eaten helps!
I am SO ready for this winter weather to be over!
So, the Cardinals basicaly fired Scott Speizio. They found out not only did he have a car accident, but it was a DUI, and he ran, and there is a warrent for his arrest in Cali. But, he still gets paid for this year. Over 1 million. I can't remember the #. This doesn't seem like a harsh enough deterrent for players to keep clean. (he had been in rehab last year). I mean, you can drink, drive, etc., get fired, but still get paid? I think the teams should be able to get out of a contract if something like this happens.
