Exercise: 45 minutes at the Y, shortened my cardio to 20 minutes so I would have room for weight training, but increased the intensity. I did the elliptical at level 7 set to random, which kept my heart rate above 160, with spurts reaching up to 170! Sweat!! Also, I proudly tightened my belt an extra notch today and also had to shorten my bra straps. Losing it in my big boobs is fine with me, I think it is a sign that I might be losing some fat in my middle- the last place I lose it. Yay!
Update: Went to the Y a second time with DB tonight! This time I tried a new machine, the row machine for about 20 minutes, maybe less as it was new and I was trying to figure it out at first. It is a really fun machine, and I can totally see more of it in my future.... yes!
Notes: Can I just say how much I love weight training? I feel so amazing when I get to move up the weight pin- especially on tricky small muscles like my shoulders! I have had a lot of energy the past few days, I think it is just manic pms-times but DB thinks it is the chia seeds.... Girl is crazy for 'em!
