Haven't lifted since Tuesday, but trying to stay on track w/ cardio. It's hard to get motivated to go workout at the gym on my days off. It's easier when I work since we have a gym downstairs and I just go down there at lunch.
Might try to go tomorrow night, late since I'm off on Mon and the gym shouldn't be that crowded.

AM - ran for 18 minutes. supposed to run for 30, but dawdled a bit and had to get back & shower so I could take my dog to the groomers and run errands before it got too hot

PM - was supposed to run intervals, but tummy was upset. I think I had too many sugar alcohols. Ate some Carborite cookies this morning, now I'm paying for it. Didn't want to take the chance of being a couple of miles away from home w/o facilities, if ya get my drift..........

ok, workout for Sunday. Planned on running intervals this morning. But was a little lazy. I felt like sleeping in a bit, I've been off work since Wed. and I've gotten up by 8am everyday. So, I think I deserved sleeping in.
So, no AM cardio, but did go do the stairs. It was hot, but not as hot as the other day. Took 33 minutes to go up & down 7 times and run from one set of stairs to the other once. My legs were totally feeing like jello.

Tomorrow I plan on running intervals. Also, I increase the fast interval. Gotta admit my tummy looks a little tighter. And also.... I have 2 pairs of denim capris. Size 8 which fit perfectly right after they are washed, then they stretch out after a few hours then they are too baggy and a pair of size 6 which have been a little tight. Well, put them on this weekend and THEY FIT!!! Even a tad loose in booty. I think this new plan is working. I think I'll keep it up for another 3 weeks, cuz doing cardio twice a day a few times a week really wears on me.

Congrats on your size 6s!!! That`s great news!! It sounds like your cardio is really getting somewhere-- I need to take some inspiration from you. Not only have I fallen off the wagon, I think the wagon is actually dragging me by the ear.

Keep it up!! You gotta get some pics.
