I went to the gym yesterday morning and put in 20 minutes on the arc trainer, 10 on the treadmill and then I did weight lifting for my lower body. I was pretty happy with that although in the afternoon I decided to get in some core work. I did 180 crunches (regular, reverse, oblique you name it!) plus 10 sit ups and a plank. Then for the hell of it I threw in 50 jumping jacks. I don't even know why, lol. I also stayed within my 26 PP, that felt really good. Especially since last night was movie night with my kids and we ended up watching Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory. You know, the good one, the original from the 70's. Not the crazy new one I've never even seen the whole way through. Normally when I watch that movie I get the chocolate cravings BIG time and eat an insane amount of sweets during the course of it. But I didn't last night. I sat through the whole thing and didn't get up for so much as a bite of something! And another big NSV for me here, I actually ate 3 whole servings of veggies! Wow! Lol. It's paying off, hopped on the scale this morning. 125.4. So on the WW scale I would be 124.9! Going in the right direction again! I am going to try and lay off the scale for a few days, no promises though. ;)
I was a big brave girl, I did it. I got my tattoo! It didn't hurt as much as I had thought it would, but it still hurt a lot more than my other 2. I really like the artist that did it (he did my last one), he was so good and understanding and QUICK! Originally I had been told it would take an hour. I was out in 30 minutes once he started! Here it is, and yes I am sucking my stomach in as far as it will go in this pic! I WISH I looked like that!
It's a little on the tender side, but I shall surivive! I really didn't think this out too well though, this is going to seriously mess with me laying out getting my tan on. I know I don't really show my stomach anyway, but the fact that it is so much whiter than the rest of me drives me nuts!
I am sorry to say I will not be going to the gym this morning. I am going to do a work out at home, right now I'm leaning towards BBL's CA. By the time I'm done here I should be ready to roll with that. We have a birthday party for one of my daughter's friends from dance class to go to and it starts at 10. The class I wanted to take today at the gym starts at 10, so yeah, not going to work!
I really need to start writing drafts for this because I had a whole bunch of stuff in my head last night that I wanted to write about and now I can't remember. Oh well, it will come back to me. I think, lol. Oh and I know a lot of you are into the green monster smoothies. I know I could look up recipes online, but I would like to know how YOU make yours. I think I want to give them a shot! So if you make those, if you would be willing to share, what you put in yours, how much, and (if you can) estimate the calorie count I would really really appreciate it. Enjoy your Saturday everyone!
Not getting up to get something to snack on during a movie - ya, HUGE! That would be huge for me too! We ALWAYS...ALWAYS make popcorn and I ALWAYS eat too much of it!
ReplyDeleteI'm the same way w/having so much to say in my mind, then 'poof' 1/2 goes away when it's time to write it down :)
I tried the green smoothies, just couldn't really get into it. Don't know why. Good Luck!
Woo! Big win on not snacking though the film! (that C&CF is just the best!)
ReplyDeleteWriting a draft is such a good idea! I've never even considered that before! DUH. Thanks for the idea.
I've never made my own green smoothies so I hope you get some great recipes. :)
