Hard to wash my hair this morning.....

I went to the gym again this morning. It was time for Day 2 on the weights. It was a little rough and now I am really sore.

I did 26 minutes on the treadmill. I know it was 4 minutes shy of my required 1/2 hour but I had to go to the bathroom and could not wait another 4 minutes. HA!

Today I have to go to see an endodontist to have a tooth evaluated to see if it needs a root canal. YUCK!

Another day at they gym...

I thought I would be really sore this morning when I woke up, but nope...I was not sore at all. The soreness started about 2:00 this afternoon.

I made it to the gym this morning at 5:15 and walked an hour on the treadmill, 3 miles.

Tomorrow morning 30 minutes of cardio and then to the weights again.

Added strength training to my workout

After doing cardio for two weeks, I decided it was time to add some strength training to my workout. I don't want to get any flabbier than I already am as I lose weight.

I met with a trainer tonight at the gym and she proceded to walk me thru several of the machines. I am to work my legs, arms and abs. I can already feel it and I know I am going to be sore tomorrow.

I was planning on doing strength training 3 days a week and cardio the other 3 days a week, with Sunday off. She told me different. I am to do cardio every day, but only 1/2 hour on the days I do my strength training.

I am also switching the time I go to the gym. I am going to start getting up at 5:00 a.m. and go to the gym in the mornings. Hubby is up at that time and getting ready for work. I lose to much time in the evenings when I go after work.

Playing catch up, hope I can remember all....

I cannot believe that August 2008 is almost over. This year has flown by and I wonder to myself where did it go.

Jessica has started her Senior year of high school. She has been looking into several colleges. We are keeping our fingers crossed that she will get a full scholarship to one of them. We even toured the University of Alabama in May with my Aunt Marlean and her daughter, Kelly.

I turned 39 this month and went to Camp Iwannastitch at The Dogwood Patch for my birthday. It was a fun trip and I am planning on going again next year. I met some cool folks and hope that I can keep in touch with them.

We purchased John a Playstation 3, the big one (80gb). It's cool because not only does it play video games, it has become our primary DVD player in the living room. It of course has a Blu-Ray player and you can surf the internet on it.

I joined Weight Watchers on 6/18/2008. As of 8/7/08 I had lost 9.8 pounds, but in the last 2 weeks, I gained a pound back.

I also started exercising a the gym. Tomorrow will be the start of my 3rd week. I am meeting with a training to start working with weights. I think I am doing okay on my cardio with the treadmill and eliptical machine.

I also joined Audible and it seems to make walking so much easier, because I have a book to listen to when I am walking. Somedays I don't want to stop, I want to hear more of the book.

Must get to stitching. I haven't done very much of that this past week.
