Workout

I have been slacking on these threads...how are you guys doing this week? I just finished my second workout of the week, kinda lame. Good leg workout, they feel like jelly. Eating has been so so. Too much party food and margarita day over the weekend; but so far this week has been pretty full of veggies and chicken. Didn't meal plan or really grocery shop this week, and I'm regretting it.

Since I am stuck in this arctic weather for what seems like forever, let's talk summer! What are you most looking forward to fitness-wise when the weather is nice?

I miss adding in the 3 mile loop by my house as an almost daily walk with a friend or my family. It's a nice way to relax and connect and burn a few extra calories!

Re: Workout

  • Looking at the numbers is always depressing @spooko.  Remember that the more muscle tissue you have the more calories your body will burn, yada yada yada.  It's worth it.

    Do you like yoga?  I can't for the life of me get into it.  I know it would be good for my body but it makes me feel anxious.

  • I was doing good until last night.  I skipped the gym and ate a candy bar.  I'll get back at it tonight.

    I can't wait for the weather to get better!

  • Ehh..I've been doing so-so with workouts lately. I'm constantly moving at work (I'm a waitress), so it sometimes feels like thats a light workout in itself.

    Besides that, on my days off I've been dping my best to squeeze in my T25 workout. My eating has been hit or miss. During the day I've been lazy and haven't had the motivation to cook for just me so I end up eating shit, sharing stuff with DS, or something packaged until I cook dinner for DH and I.

  • I haven't worked out in two weeks. This is always the hardest time of year for me to stay on track: Valentine's Day, my birthday, anniversary, E's birthday, my mom's birthday, and M's birthday all happen within about a 3.5 week period. Not to mention the cases and cases of Girl Scout cookies occupying my dining room right now. Too many meals out and sweets floating around.

  • I've been doing better workout wise, but I'm always hungry.

    I can't wait to just be outside. When it's nice out and we stay outside after work and on the weekend I'm not snacking. Plus grilled food and fresh fruit/veggies.

  • I've fallen off the wagon! I think I pushed too hard last week and messed up my knee. Walking is ok but kneeling down or getting up from sitting - feels like it's going to dislocate. It's a bit better today so I might start up again tomorrow.
    I'm falling apart! #old
    Plus it's still -30C here most days. Blah. Can't wait for summer and outdoors! Or just slightly above freezing temps even!

  • It makes me feel better that I haven't been the only slacker. 

    I did a quick yoga yesterday morning, then kickboxing at night... followed by dinner, wine & cheesecake so ya know -that's not too beneficial

    This morning I did an energy yoga and have a play date this afternoon, so running on the treadmill probably won't happen and that makes me sad. 

    Gotta get back into this!
