grrr

I have all my numbers from my AM and PM workouts, but they are downstairs and I don't feel like getting them. Maybe I will add them to tomorrows blog.

I'm a bit annoyed that I haven't lost any weight. I think I'm going to have to start logging what I eat.

Got the fridge and island cleaned today. I should have taken before/after pics of the island, especially the cabinet! Looks good! Cleaned the hallway bathroom toilet, too. Vacuumed the living room yet again, put down some deodorizer, too. And did the poopy laundry.

Tomorrow is another busy day. DH has to go to the medical group, then to WalMart. Not sure what I'll get done in terms of cleaning. Maybe mop the kitchen. But everything is maintaining right now.

To Do

Well, I actually home all day today. Wow. But I need to get some computer work done, so just a little bit on the housecleaning -- kids' laundry, kitchen island, refrigerator.

I'm a bit bummed because I'm going to miss the next two morning workouts. Thursday DH has a doctor appointment in the AM, and then Friday I'll be at Autism Awareness Day all day.

Good day!

Got lots done today, including 2 workouts!

AM

BIKE:

Time - 30 minutes
Program 2
Highest Resistance - 9
Calories - 242
Miles - 9.2



Heaviest Weight: 200
Last Weight : 174.5
Today's Weight: 175.5 (up 1 pound)

Total Weight Loss (from heaviest): 24.5
Ideal Weight: 110
Pounds left to go: 65.5

I really need to start watching what I eat. I've been trying to take it slow and for the first couple of weeks just concentrate on getting back into the exercise habit.

I did the Wii also: breathing, half moon, warrior in the yoga and the basic hula and basic step in the aerobics.

Got everything done on my to do list (laundry, vacuum, counter & cookbooks). The kitchen is looking really good! Next is the fridge and the cupboards and drawers. I don't feel particularly rushed to do the cupboards and drawers since no one can see that mess, LOL. But the cupboards need to be cleaned out since all the bugs seem to be coming in from the cold.

PM Workout

BIKE:

Time - 35 minutes
Program 2
Highest Resistance - 9
Calories - 273
Miles - 10.7

I'm really enjoying getting back into my Netflix again while working out! We finished the entire Star Trek: The Next Generation this week. Saw the most recent Stargate direct to DVD movie (better than the 1st one). Now working on Stargate: Atlantis (finished SG-1 a while ago). Also got the movie Full Metal Jacket.

Back on track

Too busy with errands and exhausted from no sleep yesterday to get anything done. Not quite as busy today, although Kayla does have horses today and I have to stop by the lab to pick up stool collection bags. Fun, fun.

Today I need to do some laundry, vacuum the house, and clean the last bit of counter in the kitchen, and perhaps organize the cookbook area. The kitchen is looking pretty good!

And of course get back on the bike!

Night Workout

I managed to get a workout in tonight:

BIKE:

Time - 30 minutes
Program 1
Highest Resistance - 7
Calories - 248
Miles - 8.3

I weighed myself on the Wii, but it wasn't accurate since I usually weigh myself in the morning.

Got my ToDo list done, although I almost forgot to put the kitchen rags in the dryer. I also managed to wipe down the dishwasher.

Things still look pretty good, although I forgot to sweep up this morning. The kitchen floor could probably use another mopping, but not today or tomorrow.

Tomorrow is a super busy day. Laurie has an early emergency dentist appointment, then I have to drop her off at school. Come home for lunch and call Crystal Run to see if Kayla labs are done. Pick up the lab reports if they are ready. Pick up Kayla from school and take her to Middletown for her Pediatric GI appointment. Sheesh. No time for housework tomorrow!

Sleep In Sunday

Boy, I was so worn out yesterday, even after SEVEN cups of coffee. So I think I'm going to have to take one weekend morning to sleep in!

So I slept in today and didn't do my AM workout. Which is a bit of a bummer because it was too hot to work out last night and tomorrow morning no workout because Laurie has an AM dentist appointment.

Anyway, yesterday got my short to-do list done: the toaster oven and stove. Moved a bit further along my kitchen and got the walls cleaned behind the toaster and stove plus the counter to the right of the stove.

Another light day today -- clean the mircowave area and do rags laundry. Everything else is still looking pretty good, too!

Itsy Bitsy Spiders

Got my to-do list completed yesterday. Including vacuuming a whole bunch of spiders out the corners of our house! There's a whole bunch of nearly invisible spiders everywhere. It's a bit freaky. We must have had an egg sac hatch or something. I have a feeling we'll be vacuuming spiders for a few weeks!

Also got the laundry done, dusted the house, and cleaned the glass. AND I went to the bank, wiped down the kitchen ceiling fan, cleaned the dish drainer, and started cleaning the toaster oven.

Plus, everything else still looks good!

Can't get much done today since the kids are home. But I do want to finish cleaning the toaster oven and also clean the stove. Ugh. The stove is so greasy! I started by taking off the knobs and cleaning those.

I didn't get my second work out in last night. It was too hot!
