Excursions to the gym

So I went to the Y for the first time on Wednesday for a weights class with Weiner and Holly. It was pretty awesome and I did things that I didn't think I would ever be able to do, like dips! Plus there were tons of squats. Needless to say, I felt the squats for days after when I couldn't easily walk up and down stairs.

We went to the movies in SJ on Friday, and of course we sat in the very top row of the stadium seating auditorium! *eeps* That hurt.

It felt good to hurt again, though. But I held back on going to the gym again for anything else because I wasn't sure if my legs could handle it again or not so soon. I thought about going to the spin class this morning, but I think the girls say they call around 6am to get in, and I definitely wasn't sure enough to call. I am taking Bailey skating this afternoon though. It should be fun. It'll be my first time at the Wille O'Ree Centre. I just have to get to Mom & Dad's for my skates and then get them sharpened.

My eating has been kind of crappy since Friday and I've basically fucked off on all of my challenges. :( I don't know what's gotten into me lately. Getting lazy again, I guess. I need to pick up where I left off again. I am still within all of my points though without touching my activity points!

Monday

This morning I got up at 7am, made breakfast, made lunch and did 18 minutes of yoga!

7 remaining points for the day! Eek!

I still haven't done my sit-ups and push ups. :S
I was planning to do another 15min on Wii Fit tonight, but it's 11:20pm and all I want to do is go to bed. I'll have to eat something to use up more of my points for the day first. *sigh*
I bought a marinating steak for tomorrow for supper, so I'll definitely make use of my extra points!

Sunday Update

Well, I fell off making my meal plan up ahead of time yesterday. We slept in instead of going to the market for breakfast, so it threw everything off. It's an excuse and needless. I didn't even do any exercise and I had no reason not to. :( It's too bad.

For today:

Breakfast (~noon)
1 english muffin
1 Tbsp PB
2C skim milk
1 banana

Supper
1C butternut squash
2C potatoes
1 banana muffin

Snacks
1 cheese stick
other snacks = 4.5pts

I am committed to doing my 30 push-ups & 30 sit-ups, as well as 30min of Wii Fit tonight, either before or after going to Mom & Dad's to do laundry.

I am also committed to putting my mini-fridge, elliptical and Jeff's nightstand on Kijiji tonight. I also plan to sit down and list some goals for this year to help me focus. One or two will definitely be financial as I'm trying to save more money this year.

Thursday

I got up and scraped/cleaned off the car for 15min, then came in and did a wii fit body test while getting breakfast together. Jeff ate the last of the english muffins, so I had to come up with another plan.

1 cheese string

Monday Night Update

Meal Plan

Breakfast:
1 english muffin
1 Tbsp peanut butter
1C skim milk
1 sm. apple
1 Pull 'n' Peel

Lunch:
2 samosas

Dinner:
1C potatoes
3C water
1.5C salad
1 wild boar burger
1 beef medallion

Snack:
4 frosted homemade shortbread cookies
1 chocolate chip cookie

Obviously the snack was a huge step back, but we had frosting from Christmas that needed to be eaten up and I had promised Jeff shortbread cookies if he cleaned the kitchen (and back before Christmas!). They turned out okay and were made with half whole wheat flour and half whole white flour, plus we chose the healthier recipe. Unfortunately all of this happened after midnight and dinner was also very late after I got home from Mom & Dad's where I was hemming.

One NSV: I kept myself from caving and eating supper at Mom & Dad's. I purposefully ate the samosas before I went so that I would not be tempted and even though I was starving, I only ate one cookie.
