END of WEEK 22!

I started this week of saying it seems I have so much to do and so little time. That definitely held true through this weekend.

Last night we were up all night with Nora. So this morning I was so tired I couldn't get out of bed until about noon. Then we were off the meet up with friends at the beach and then spend some time with my family! By the time we got home it was time for Nora to go to bed and I'm working on more paperwork (it seems that is where my week started, lol).

Unfortunately, I didn't get that last 700 calories burned. But I did have a wonderful weekend - was able to accomplish some work around the yard and spend quality time with friends and family. Couldn't ask for more! (except a little more energy and time to fit a workout in!)

Though I didn't get my goal in this week, which is a total bummer, a friend said to me today - As long as you get back to it you're OK. So tomorrow I plan to be back in the gym! Join the challenge with me!

700 Still to Go

I took they day off from working out yesterday. And today it seems that all the chores around the house have kept me busy. Not sure if I'll make it to the gym tonight....some how I have to burn another 700 calories!

Another 600

Burned another 600 calories today. I just have 700 calories left to burn!

Getting My Appetite Under Control

It seems that my appetite is crazy right now! I need to get it under control. Burning 800 calories the past 2 days should have helped bring my weight closer to losing my 2 lbs. But with the way I have been eating I have just been maintaining! That's a lot of extra calories I am consuming!

Hopefully today I can get back to better eating pattern. It just goes to show that working out alone doesn't always equal weight loss!

Burned 600 calories on the elliptical today. 1300 calories left to go! Did you fit in a workout today?

Another Busy Day!

Another busy day ahead, but I got all my paper work done yesterday! Now I'm off to get caught up on Nora's scrapbook while she is napping! I love crafts!

Burned another 800 calories on the elliptical this morning and did my ab exercises! 1900 calories remaining to burn this week! The elliptical is my favorite piece of fitness equipment, what's yours?

Week 22! SO BUSY, SO LITTLE TIME!

I realized this morning that I never posted my workout yesterday. I did get to the gym and burned 500 calories on the elliptical. The past 2 days back on the elliptical were a bit wobbly. My knees were shifting a bit - I think due to not working out regularly and wearing high heels in Vegas for 4 days. So I think my knees are happy I'm back in tennis shoes!

Today our schedule seems to be back to normal. We got to the gym around our normal time. I burned 800 calories on the elliptical and did my ab exercises. And I got Nora down for her usual morning nap!

Now I'm catching up on paperwork that I didn't get to while on vacation! I better get back to my work so I get a lot done while Nora is sleeping! Sometimes it seems there is so much to accomplish in a given day! As long as I fit a shower in before this evening I think I'll be good :)

Do you have a crazy busy day too? How are you fitting in some exercise?

BACK AT THE GYM!

I eventually made it to the gym today. I got 500 calories burned on the elliptical and started my ab exercises. Then Chris and I got called to the daycare because Nora was upset. I'm thinking that she wasn't happy being away from us and she was with some girls in the daycare she wasn't familiar with. Poor baby!

So we ended our workout a little early. At least we are working back up to our normal schedule! Hoping we get another workout in tomorrow and then starting week 22 on Monday!
