Day 37

Today was Day 37 of the effort. I finally went back to the gym after 6 days of yoga and pilates as a rest. It went in and did 30 minutes on the bike and 30 minutes walking on the treadmill at an angle. I also did abs:

reverse crunches (3/15 reps)
scissor legs (3/20 reps)
Ball pass (3/12 reps)
Balance Ball crunches (3/15 reps)
Side crunches on the ball (3/15 reps)
Side crunches on the floor (5/15 reps)
Plank (30 second hold)

Ahh.. It feels good. I also remember this intense hunger after a workout. I've eaten dinner - 6 oz of chicken breast, broccoli and a knish. And Apple Jacks with milk. That about about an hour and a half ago, and yes... I am hungry again. I'm going to post the full day's meals tomorrow morning. Also, I weighed in today and I weigh about the same as last week. No weight gain even though I stayed away from the gym! Hot damn! I guess it helped that I continued to watch what I ate. I'm looking forward to next week's weigh in.

Also, Shout out to Harlem Red on the 2 pound weight loss! I'm so proud of her for sticking to it! My bras and clothes fit differently too, but I refuse to buy anything new just yet... in a few months.
