So.. sorry for the delay folks, I've been quite busy dealing with..distracting matters haha, but I wanted to quickly post my progress thus far. Yesterday, I burned almost 600 calories! I have been trying to practice interval training and changing the pace of my workout on the treadmill and elliptical throughout my set. I usually seem to wear off a lot of energy in the first 15 to 20 minutes of my cardio, and I'll have to reduce the intensity or speed for a few minutes, and then pick it back up again. I pushed myself so incredibly hard today. I only burned about 470 calories today, and only did strength training and the elliptical. It was really great though, I pushed myself to work onto level 9 on the elliptical! It was difficult, but it really felt great. I only did it for about 8 minutes or so, in two different increments, but I know that in about a week or two, it should be a pretty solid commitment, and I'll push myself to level 11 then haha. I feel like I could've pushed myself more a little bit while weight training, but Monday is another day. I'm going to lunch with some of my friends tomorrow, and I'm hoping that there will be some tasty but healthy options! I'll also be working out before I go out to eat, so I'll have to choose something high in protein.
Side note: for those who know me, I've been in love with this boy that I went to high school with for a long, long time now. I haven't had the nerve to tell him, and I don't think it would work out between us. So I've been trying to move on and today..........................................I spotted a guy across the room haha. I was dripping with sweat which I'm sure was attractive, but sheesh, who would've thought working out would be so much fun for me! haha
OH, song....hmmmm ooooh, I have a lovely little ditty for you. One of my favorite songs ever
"Love You Down" by INOJ. Hell. Yes.
Love and all that,
