Well today was a bad morning, I slept through church, woke up at 11, had a TERRIBLE sore throat, but Chris went and got me a bagel...so that was good! I managed to put on my gym clothes and go tough it out. Friday I only worked out for about 40 minutes and Saturday I took as my day off, so today I wanted a good, long, workout.
I was there, no turning back. Since I can hardly breath I took it kind of easy heart rate wise. I did an hour on the elliptical, burned about 450 calories. I like to try and burn at least 500 so I hopped on the treadmill. Friday I had ran on the treadmill for the first time in years since it's hard on the knees, but they felt good so I carried it on today. I did 3 minutes runinng 2 minutes walking. I walked the first and last five minutes in my half hour on the treadmill and it felt good!
I burned almost 800 calories today and I'm stoked!
I never knew I could push my body like this, especially when I'm sick...really! I took some pictures after my shower, I am starting to tell a little in my face of the weight loss. I generally compare myself to what I was at 209 not the starting of weight watchers, so there is a bit of a difference, but not too much.
As Chris said (with all sincerity) "baby, you only have two chins instead of three!"-I never had three, two yes, three no. I am starting to get rid of that second one now!!!
