60 Minues LSB on treadmill. Another one of those times when 60 minutes seemed very, very, very long.
Lost 2 pounds this week.
Getting ready to go down and do today’s LSB. It will go faster because I have a Daily Boost and Fitness Boost to listen to as well as watching Biggest loser.
EDIT:
Day 43
8 minute warmup
20 minute You on a Diet workout
64 minute treadmill LSB
Day 46 - unplanned rest day - see my journal thread, I got off track for a couple days
Day 47
morning: 30 minute aerobic video plus a couple sets of squats and lunges
evening: 30 minutes pilates w/ resistance band - 10 min lower body, 10 min upper body, 10 min flexibility
60 minutes LSB at 75% HR on treadmill
Day 48 - I kept my promise to get outside for a long walk even though it was only 28 degrees out. I walked from my house to my sister’s which is 6 miles. It took me 2 hours which is a good pace for me right now and I wore my heart monitor and kept within my range. I am going to use this walk as a gauge and see how much time I can cut off. By the way, my sister gave me a ride home.
I decided that this week is going to be my week ‘off’ for several reasons:
I just finished the second round of SMSM
It’s ‘that time’ of the month
I’m going to be working some extra hours this week
I’m going to be working on spring cleaning this week.
By a week ‘off’ I mean that I am committing to 45 minuts of exercise for 4 days this week instead of 60 minutes for 6 days.
Good Job on evaluating the “situation” and deciding on an appropriate plan!! Taking it easy is sometimes a good thing. I’m happy to see you are still including exercise - way to go!! Enjoy the cleaning (it should count in your exercise quota)!!
Day 51 and Day 52 - rest days. I went to see The Producers on Wednesday, the national tour finally made it to Vermont. It was great! I wonder how many calories laughing burns. Thursday was dinner at Mom’s. Also worked extra hours at work all week.
Day 52 - 45 minutes LSB while watching the Red Sox game.
I’ve got 2 more days of my week off then Monday I load up SMSM for my third round and get back with a vengeance.
Day 53 - I considered a rest day but did do a 30 minute walk outside and did my stair challenge - that’s where I see how many times I can go up and down the stairs without stopping. I’m up to 12. Plus I did do a set of push ups.
My week ‘off’ is over, back to 6 days a week. I had to do the treadmill later than usual as I worked late, had to stop at the store and so I didn’t get home until 7:30. I will have to use a Guided Motivation or two to help me relax and get to sleep tonight.
I am programmer on call this weekend and got a call from work just as I hit 40 minutes. Had to stop and take care of a few things, in fact I’m still doing so. Writing this while I’m waiting for a job to run.
Had to deal with some more work stuff today. There have been some weeks when I’m on call that I get no calls at all. So far, this weekend is making up for those weeks.
But did do 30 minutes of misc. exercises with the resistance bands, plus some squats, lunges and stairs. And then did my 60 minute LSB.
Thanks for checking up on me. Work got in the way this past week and I had to let a few things slide, including the forum. But I did get in my exercise.
Sunday Day 61 - 60 minutes LSB
Monday Day 62 - forced rest day - worked all evening
Tuesday Day63 - 60 minute walk outside
Wednesday Day 64 - 60 minutes LSB
Thursday Day 65 - rest day
Friday - Day 66 - 40 minute walk at lunch time, some stairs and push ups at night after I got home from a play
Saturday - Day 67- 1.5 hours Yardio raking, 30 minutes on treadmill
Sunday - Day 68 - 63 minute walk outside
And I did lose another pound.
My on call week is done so I should be able to spend more time on the forum this week.
