...A fresh start to a new week, and things are looking good. I went to my first holiday party last Friday and the worst thing I ate was chili. I brought deserts, including an NS friendly one that I could eat (pumpkin mousse). This week I've got a black tie formal which I've decided to not be stressed about. The last time I went the food was reasonably healthy (no heavy sauces, steamed veggies, etc), and I did lots of dancing, so I've got a means built in to burn calories :).
Life at the gym is good. I took my first strength class and my arms, chest and shoulders are still a little sore from all the weight lifting. I did things I wasn't sure I could do, which was a nice surprise. I met the instructor in advance while doing some cardio work and she suggested that I come try her class. She commented that she was surprised at how well I did. The biggest NSV was being able to do the ab work. I've been avoiding classes thinking I wasn't at the right endurance level and I hate the ab work because I always cramp up. I felt like I was on the mountain top when I was able to do everything along with everyone else. No cramps at all. I can look back and say I'm in way better shape than six months ago. Yeah for me! My next goal is increasing my flexibility. |
