When I'm not dieting, it is an absolute necessity to weigh myself every single day -- if I don't wish to pack on the weight. Something about the honesty of those cold hard numbers. I wonder, though, if it is advisable to do that while engaged in a diet because the incremental change is too small. Perhaps I should just weigh once a week. I go back and forth on it, though.
I really thought I was feeling really yucky and tired and even put "bone tired" as my Facebook status tonight. But something weird happened when I got on that bike tonight. When the thirty minutes were up, I didn't stop. Maybe it was that I was watching Grey's Anatomy at the time (a guilty pleasure). Or maybe it was my fascination with those numbers on the digital readout of my bike. I watched myself go almost 7 miles, burn 400 calories (I hope they all came off my hips!), and spend 45 minutes when I only set out to do a lackluster 30...
So, today, I feel like a champ!
Today's Exercise: 45 minutes on the stationary bike. |
Nov. 30, 2007 - so now I know we will be good partners
And Gray's Anatomy...yup. We are currently with out TV but I keep hoping someone secretly reads my mind and buys me all the seasons on DVD... pathetic :-)
My inhouse exercise of choice (when I'm able to see my toes) is Tae Bo or Gunnar Petersons' Core Essentials...how said they are both informercials and I have to admit I got sucked in. But they do seem to really make a difference even when I am unable to go full intensity like they do. I'll work back up to that in February...or maybe March. :-)
