Totally off topic of weight loss. I kicked butt on my evidentiary hearing today!!! I wanted to play that song all the way back to the office (see title of post for name of song). Yaaa me. Apparently, being uber prepared and lots and lots of legal research pays off. Who would have thought? (just kidding). Still have to go work out tonight. I'll post on that later.
I always wish I had something really funny to write. I read all of these other blogs and the people are so funny and entertaining. I feel like such a blogtard. I'm always just talking about my workouts, bla bla bla, and then I think something funny will come to me and nothing funny comes to me and then I'm like bye. I have a boring blog - I have come to admit that and I will just have to deal with it. Apparently my writing talents are all used up at work and I have nothing left for the blog. But I don't write anything funny for work, so why would my funny writing talents be used up at work - they wouldnt. Ah Ha - maybe I am just not funny - I dont have the ability to write funny. Shit. I'll just have to be a blogtard and my true friends will still read me and tolerate my boring blogs.
By the way, I did work out tonight. My knee hurt a bit so I now have 2 bags of frozen peas taped to it. 645 calories and resisted In-N-Out Burger again - yaa me. I hate the employee who decided that my neighborhood was a good place to build an In-N-Out Burger.
Becca - yaa you - that you are motivated to run and squat with a 8 week old baby at home is amazing. I, in no way felt like working out when my babies were that young!
I really wanted junk food, but I baked a chicken breast and had some brown rice with it. I was good. Pat me on the head.
:)
I need to workout tonight, but I can't figure out what to do. My knee is killing me, so I am afraid to run. If I hurt it anymore, I won't be able to run during training tomorrow or Thursday. So, I need to resist eating junk food and decide what kind of workout to do.
Why is In -n-out Burger calling to me??? Why?
I have such a problem with will power and restraint.
Today was my 8th Training Session (out of 36 Total). I think my stamina is getting a bit better and I can keep up with the Ab workout a bit better. I still don't feel like I'm losing enough weight, but that is probably due to diet. I am being really good during the week - but not so good on the weekends. The weekends are sooooo hard!! But, either way, I'm being way better with my diet than I was before I started working out!!! Progress, not perfection as the 12 stepers would say. :)
It's raining like crazy here tonight. I don't mind it so much when I think that in a few months, we'll be back to 115 degrees!
Hope all had a decent Monday - here's looking forward to a fruitful, successful and not too stressful week!
Today, Justin and I went on a bike ride across the River behind our house and around New River Road. We had to carry our bikes across the rockiest part of the river and up and down cliffs - it was way more of a workout than I thought it would be. My heart rate monitor said that I burned 938 calories!
I really don't want to wake up early tomorrow to go to bootcamp. Anyone have encouraging words? It may be raining in the morning, so I may get out of it that way. Otherwise, I really need to go. I just like sleeping in so much on the weekends! Oh well - I would also like to weight 25 pounds less, so I guess I just need to decide which one I like more.
:)
Friday night I trained with Josh again. Most of you won't understand that the thought of that strikes fear into the hearts of many. Josh is a HARD trainer. I regularly feel like I am going to collapse when I am training with Josh. He takes no bullshit, if you are moving slow because your legs feel like Jello, he says "come on Nichole we only have an hour, no time for your stall tactics." I always tell him that I refuse to let him make me puke (at least at the gym). I asked him last night if puking was part of the weight loss plan? He laughed and then put the stair climber machine up 2 more levels!
I now completely understand the need to get a trainer, there is absolutely no way I would push myself this hard!!!!!
