Yay!

I worked out yesterday!! And I felt great afterwards!

I'm not gonna lie though. It was hard getting through it. But I did it. I completed 20 minutes on the elliptical before kickboxing, and then an hour of kickboxing. Then I sat in the sauna for 20 minutes, burning more calories and soothing the soon-to-be sore muscles. Also, I ate really well! I had yogurt, banana for bkfast; half a cheese sandwich, cheese and crackers for lunch; powerbar gel; tomato soup loaded with veggies for dinner. And water all day.

And when I weighed myself this morning, I realized I have lost about three pounds in the past two weeks. Cool! Three pounds could be water weight, but what I do is consistently weigh myself, same time and same empty stomach. If it stays at that certain weight for a period of time, then I know it's not just water weight. Yay!

I don't really stress about weighing myself though, I just do it now to keep tabs on myself. There was a time in my life where the only time I weighed myself was when I went to the doctor. And each time I did, I was amazed how the number kept going up! I had no idea! So, it's more of a check system really. I don't stress as it going down so much as it going back up. I tend to go by how I look, feel and how my clothes fit me.

Anyways, today I don't know if I have time to workout. I have to do a lab lesson at the winery which could take a while depending on much I prepare for it this morning. I am hoping to at least get 30 minutes in since I will be driving 5+ hours tonight. Lots of sitting.

And I don't think I will time to workout on Saturday since we will be leaving early to go judge in a speech tourney and when we arrive home, we will be going to a crawfish boil at a friend's house in Wimberley. I love this event, I think they have it every year and it's probably been about five years since I last went to one.

Have a great weekend everybody!
