So fell of the wagon over the weekend. Didn’t go to the gym at all, my eating was OK but I could have done better. We went out of town and it threw off my groove a bit. My husband took off a few days from work so we spent a lot of time together and unfortunately it didn’t involve going to the gym. Oh well, tomorrow is another day.
I bought a calorie counter thing last night (Body Media/ FIT) I‘ve always wanted one. It’s an armband that you wear 24/7 and it shows the amount of calories you burn during the day and in your sleep. It also shows the amount of steps you have taken, hours you have slept, and is programmed to your personal fitness goals. You input your food intake to a software program and you can see if you are burning more calories then you are taking in. It’s really cool and I already love it. I’ll let you know how this works out for me during the next couple of weeks. So if you see me walking around with a armband monitor just know that it’s a fitness thing and one of those bracelets the cops use to keep an eye on the trouble makers.
I went to the gym today and took a body combat class (kind of like a kickboxing class, just different) It’s probably one of my least favorite classes at the gym. It’s fast paced and I have no clue what to do most of the time. Seems like when I’m kicking the rest of the class is punching… I get confused so easily there, it’s hard to keep up. Also there is a lot of jumping and bouncing around. That is never fun when you are “blessed” girl. But I did burn a bunch of calories according to my armband, so that is a good thing. Whoot!

That's super cool. We all fall off the wagon now and then. Most of my life I was chasing it. :)
ReplyDeleteYour armband thing sounds really neat.
