The Decision

Why did I retire? Because I could!

Still Excercising

Trying to put some variety in my workouts since I'm back to going regularly.  Yesterday, I did 1,000 meters on the rowing machine with a full mile on the treadmill, and with 45 minutes of exercises in- between. Today, I did the upstairs sprint-circuit, which has a higher difficulty than the one downstairs, and did a 2,000 meter row and finished off with 1 Km. on the treadmill. (Sounds better than .6 miles). Still works out to about 90 minutes per session.
I feel I should be able to run on the treadmill by now, but usually do a brisk walk with alternating 1-minute runs. It's still a good workout, and I'm pretty tired and sweaty when I'm done. 

I'll be able to continue with the gym on my " "Shake Days" but they recommend not on the "Cleanse Days". Today, I had cereal for breakfast, chicken breast with salad for lunch, a protein shake after my workout, and I just had a cup of homemade fruit cocktail. And predictably, it's 9:00 PM and I'm HUNGRY. Hopefully, when I start the program tomorrow, the snacks I'm allowed (special chocolates, and little wafers that look like grainy throat lozenges) are supposed to help curb appetite and cravings. One more sleep.

  1. Plan on doing something with your hands when you know in the past you would have snacked. Perhaps work on your beading. Good luck Lucie!
