W-E-E-K T-H-R-E-E

This has been an amazing week.

Lady and I have been going hard at the gym.  We have been experimenting with the different machines and finding what works for us.  We even discovered that State has Dance Studios...took us how long to find these?!  This was an awesome discovery for this week.

Day 5:
Cardio: 45minutes
Weights: 1hour 25 minutes
Stretching: 45minutes.

Cardio was awesome in a strange way.  Some of the cardio machines are located in front of a big flat screen tv.  In the morning, that tv plays CNN news.  I have been riding the bike while watching the news.  A nice way to start my day. :)

Stretching was  fun! The PE classes were cancelled for the day so Lady and I stretched in front of the mirrors.  This made us pretty excited.  As we wandered to the locker rooms, we discovered the Dance Studios.  Sadly they do not have any bars but they are far from the mainstream workouts and have fans! Yee!  Our future stretching places.

Day 6:
Dance Workout: 1hour
Weights: 1hour
Stretching: 45minutes.

I started my day off with a dance workout.  It made me sad when I realized I am NOWHERE near what I used to be. I do not have the stamina or the abilities.  Motivation to get there.  I am pretty sure I will feel that workout tomorrow.  It was more powerful for a cardio workout then any I have done thus far!  And it felt awesome. :)  I did me.

Then I did the usual weights without the leg machines.  I think I might have hurt my knee at the last workout so I went light on the leg workouts today.  Besides, I am sure I got something out of the dance workout for my legs.

Then Lady and I proceeded to our little piece of heaven. :)

Summary for the week:
I had an awesome workout week.  I felt it and I have seen an improvement in the amount of weights needed to achieve the burn seen in previous weeks!

The most exciting news of all is that on Wednesday I fit into a pair of jeans I bought back in May.  These jeans are brand new.  I bought them online and put them on when I got them.  I could not close the button... :\  But yesterday, I strutted those bad boys with pride.  It felt amazing to be able to fit into these jeans.  I hope to keep losing weight but let me tell you, first the strapless bra then these jeans?! I feel amazing. In a way, I feel skinnier then I look.  Need to work on that perception...

The truth will come out tomorrow.  I have an unrelated appointment with a doctor tomorrow.  There will be a scale involved.  I am anxious to see what it says.  Have I "gained weight" from muscle but dropped inches?  Have I lost weight?!

I will leave on that note.  Until tomorrow with the news!

Deuxieme Semaine

Alright. I confess. I am behind on my posts by a week! Sadly I ran out of energy to post but here it is in a quick summary!!

I worked my tush off.
Day 3 and 4 were duplicates of the previous week.

I did add in a few new machines: the twisty ab machine which I totally felt!  I am in love with it.  I also added the horse kick and it did nothing for me.  My gluts must be in great shape just covered in flab.  I also experimented with the back strengthening machine and I felt it! I loved it!!

Truly I am too excited by this week to recollect what happened at the gym last week.

OH I do remember that I have been starting my workouts off by doing some cardio and watching CNN news.  That was a great way to catch up on the biased world problems while warming up and doing the cardio.

Sorry this post is short. But the next one will be lucious! ;]
