Great workout day

Hubby had to work yesterday (Christmas) so we set a date to go work out this morning.  He got a call and didn’t get out of work until late and then I had no one show up for class.  lol  What a start huh?  Thankfully he called before I left and we met up at the other gym so he could do a heavier leg workout.

I wasn’t ready to work out hard at cardio.  I didn’t think he was going to make it, I was going to workout later at the gym I prefer.  :)   So I walked for somewhere over 100 calories and we hit legs and abs.

Then he took a nap and just couldn’t wake up.  He decided he was going to the gym and see if that helped him wake up.  Well I sure couldn’t sit here and work on the computer and let him go alone.  I knew it would help get me cranking again if I went.  And it has!

I burned 500 calories at the gym this evening.  I started on the elliptical, moved to the summit trainer and then finished off by jogging.  I knew my attention span wasn’t going to last long on any one machine.  lol

So we’re off to a great start after the holidays.  I didn’t gain too much weight.  I’m back up to 172, but honestly I’m not embarrassed or angry at myself for that.  I’m taking it as it is and moving on from it.  I’m reheating stew for dinner right now and added a ton more veggies to it.  I’ve been eating more often and smaller meals.  All-in-all I’m feeling pretty good about it.  I know I’ve been seriously slacking and I’m not happy about it.  But that’s done.
