Good news, lost another 0.6 pounds this week. There will be no weekend trip this weekend, so there should be no bad eating this weekend holding me back. Hope to get that up to a pound next week.
Today was training day with Eric. Marissa, my sister, accompanied me to the gym this evening and joined me with the training. We started on the octane machine

15 minutes, level 9. I went 1.5 miles and burned 165 calories. Next onto the abs and arms. I requested not to work on me legs, since they were killing me. We threw the 10 pound medicine ball back and forth 50 times. When Marissa went back, I would do obliques (side to side with legs up). We did 25 leg lifts next (hands under butt, legs up to the sky lifting your butt) and 100 jumping jacks really fast! We then did my favorite (ugh!) workout with the bosu ball, 25 reps.
We then made our way to the indoor track (which is 1/8 of a mile). We did 7 laps then worked our arms/back. We alternated between 15 reps of a row, 40 pounds and 25 reps on the ab machine with 50 pounds. We did each machine 2 times with pushups inbetween (25 the first time, 15 the second). Next, we switched to arms. We did the bicep machine and the tricep machine, 15 reps on 30 or 40 pounds, not sure which. In between these, we did calf lifts and then leg lifts.
We finished off the workout with a mile (17 laps) around the track. We did it in about 10 minutes, so good time for the end of the workout. Rissy got a post workout smoothie from the recovery zone. While we were there, the girl working behind the desk (lauren, my favorite) told us about a fight happening in the parking lot. Apparently one of the basketball games got a little out of control. Luckily they were gone by the time we got out there!
Good workout! Now Biggest Loser time to keep me motivated for the week. Hoping Elizabeth gets kicked off here one of these weeks!
Oh Al, you're so cute. I love Eric he's just such a teddy bear. Keep up the weight loss while I gain muscle :) Month to month membership for me baby! Upcoming state champ right here.
