Low energy day

Today was a low energy day. I'm not sure if it has to do with the weather, but I was feeling tired and a little sad. I forced myself to do Turbo Jam Cardio Party, and tonight I will be working out to the biggest loser. I'll probably do some Nordic Track to warm up and then some toning with weights and bands.

I do need to push myself. I think my metabolism is quite messed up due to my age and what I'm going through. The workouts I am doing now used to take weight off, but nothing is budging so much. I don't eat like a mouse either, but maybe I need to be more careful. The holidays are coming up and I don't want to become a moose.

So, I'll keep at it and hope something gives soon. Otherwise, I might need to head to the doctor.

Keep pushing play even when you don't feel like it!

PS I hope to be on my bike tomorrow. The ride is coming up!

Wednesday thru today


On Wednesday, I took the day off. Thursday was a bike day with 15 miles in a little under an hour. Friday was a bad day. I was supposed to do something, and I didn't.

Today I did Turbo Jam Cardio Party (the original). I found that I'm in much better cardio shape than when I started back in 2004-2005. I got through it, no problem.

Tomorrow I have plans for a big bike ride to get ready. I only have a few weeks left before the Livestrong ride.

My goal is to lose at least 10 pounds by the end of this year. If I can make it to 20 pounds by March, that would be great! I'm not going to weigh myself until I get back in late October. I simply want to work hard and see what happens later so I don't get discouraged.

Keep pushing play or going to the gym, or living it up outside.

From Friday to today

I haven't blogged in a few days. I had a few days of doing a little here and there, but on Friday, I started kicking into a higher gear. I'm working on 2 workouts per day or one hard core workout.

Friday, I did a new cardio workout that my sister sent to me called Work It Off with Tracy York and Michelle Dozios. Good instruction, but a little goofy with the moves. Some of it was a little higher impact for my foot, but I modified and got through it. If you like the Australian dance/aerobics with add on combinations, you will like this workout.

Saturday, I started off with a Fat Burning Dance Party and then did a walk for about 2 miles. Later in the day, I did a little toning.






On Sunday, I went for an about 24 mile bike ride. Booyah! That took everything out of me, but I did a few minutes of abs.





Yesterday, I did Turbo Jam's 30 minute Cardio Party and took a 15 minute walk. Not much that day since I was still tired from the ride.






Today, I did Tony Horton's Power Half Hour Ab workout (can you tell I'm working on abs this week?). I will follow with a walk and some Nordic Track as I watch the Biggest Loser (great to workout with the show!).







I'm on my way!
