Weigh Less Wendy


Where  Glenvista Fitness

When   September 11, 2013

Time     07:15

I hit the gym again this morning and did the above routine.  I decided to hit the treadmill for a 'fat burn workout' and concentrated on my legs today.  I'm wondering how sore its going to be tomorrow morning.  I'm stoked that I got off my butt and have been to the gym twice this week and for achieving my goal for the week of two visits a week as per this post.. No promises, but I am scheduling in my mind a visit on Friday where I'll work arms. 


Besides getting an email off to Anabela, its the only other thing on my List of Intentions I've achieved, but then, we have a good few days still to go in this month.
 
Tonight is our monthly Sistas Dinner.  I'm looking forward to seeing my sisters and catching up on their news.  I'm considering suggesting a monthly sisters get together on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon to scrapbook.  I have tons of scrapbooking products and just never get around to scrapbooking, maybe I should throw the idea onto the table this evening and see what comes out of it.  I haven't scrapbooked in almost two years now, but often still buy goodies.  I sometimes think I'll just put it all up for sale - but my heart just won't allow me to.
 
So now its time to hit the shower and get the day going.  I have lots I intend doing today - and its almost 09:00.
 
Hope your day is fabulous.
Wendy

No excuses?

Being very close to fifty I have, much to my surprise found my body changing quicker than I could ever have imagined and me feeling like a race house stuck in the starting stalk unable to catch up with the changes.
Last week I got home feeling horrid and commented to Courteney that I felt awfully chubby and that the skirt I  was wearing used to hang loosely on my hips, but is now fitted in my waist.   She kindly said I should try getting to gym and hit the treadmill even if only once a month ... right there and then I told her I was going to gym and she chose to come with.
I did a session on the treadmill,  followed by leg, stomach and an arm workout.   I felt better about me but I know it is going to take a lot more to get into the shape I dream of.
If I don't do the work, I'm not going to get any results and I'm a little tired of making excuses to myself.
Sadly, on Friday I was given 30 days notice at work.  With the economy in the state it is and the mining sector under particular strain, contractors are being let go in order for permanent staff to keep their positions.  This is going to be a big challenge for me and I'll need to keep H.A.L.T. in mind. 
Hope your weekend was fabulous.
