Well I have not taken a break from exercise, but my laptop decided to take a break. I am in the process of getting a new power cord to remedy the situation, but I am a little behind in my journaling because of it.
I have been working out hard, sticking to my hour a day goal. I have alternated between strength training and cardio, with a bit more emphasis on cardio. Lately, I have gravitated more towards Turbo Jam, and Taebo. Today I wanted something different. I remembered that I had seen an exercise show on BYU Channel. I thought the instructor varied the workout from day to day. So, with some minor interruptions from #1, 3, and 4, I tried out The Total Body Workout. It was fun and different, so I decided to DVR some more episodes. Today was kick boxing and step aerobics with some strength training thrown in at the end. My workout ended up being an hour and 15 minutes with all the starting and stopping I did.
I have come to the conclusion that my body no longer handles junk well. With the changes I have made so far, which have not been huge, I just can't take the garbage I used to eat. We went to an old favorite last night and before we even made it home both Patrick and I were sick. Let's just say Kentucky can keep their chicken, mine is way better! I made some really bad food choices over the weekend and I think I have backtracked a bit. I don't believe in feeling guilty though. I have made the choice to move forward and not make those mistakes again. Isn't that what this life is all about anyway.
I also decided to take my body measurements so that I have more to judge my progress with. I have chosen to not publish those for the world to see. It was hard enough to put my actual weight on here. I will however post my losses.
