1. Gym Rat Unicorn– I finally have a general routine that has been working well for me at the gym. I try and go twice a week, Monday and Wednesday and here is what the day looks like. First, I do 3 miles on the treadmill. Lately, I have either been doing hill work or speed training. Next up, I lift the circuit. 6 machines, 3 arms, 3 legs. I understand that is not hitting every muscle, but it is better than nothing. Lastly is the stair machine or elliptical (depending on what is open). That gives me a little bit of everything and is a nice supplement to just running.
**Side note: Very happy how much I have gone up in weights over the past 2 months
2. I need to get my eating back on track. Ever since the holidays I have been struggling. I am up 5-7 pounds since this fall. While not horrible, not what I want to see. It is by far because of my eating habits. Several friends use the My Fitness Pal site that tracks both calories and exercise. I know I have not been eating healthy lately, but the My Fitness Pal is an eye opener to just how many calories I have been consuming. Dang milkshakes!!!! (which I’m going to be in BIG trouble because it is Shamrock Shake season). I want to maintain my social life, which includes going out to dinner and bars, so I guess it is all about portion control on nights out.
3. This weekend starts Visitor Season. I have 4 sets of visitors over the next two months. That means, gotta keep the house up, which generally isn’t too hard for me, but it is that extra little stuff that I need to do. I also finally bought new sheets for the spare (twin) bed. The bed used to have my sisters old crazy, bright, tripped out, frog sheets that had to have been 10-15 years old. It was time to say good-bye to them. The fence is fixed, most of the cleaning is, and I am ready!
