I woke up this morning feeling great even though I got up three times during the night. I made breakfast for the family and then jumped on the treadmill. I am STILL nursing shin splints so I decided to just walk on the mill today. I did 1.17 miles in 20 min. I then headed to the "gym" and I found my old jump rope and I jumped three sets counting to 15 as fast as I could go. I tried to make my feet land where my shins didnt hurt, but they started telling me to "stop that!" so I did.
My ab work was good today, I was encouraged this morning when I was getting dressed cause my upper abs are really starting to show through.. DH even said he could see them .. so it wasnt my imagination :) I did incline sit ups 4 sets of 25, hipups 3 sets of 15, and I tried to do some plan ole crunches after that but I could only muster 5 .. I was burned out!.. I then did some buff mother dancing to a Shakira Spanish song.. it was about 3 mins worth of work.
I weighed this morning cause I just felt a bit leaner. I was down to 139 .. so 2 lbs in a few days
isnt too bad.. I am sure most of that is water weight cause I drank sooo much soda on Sunday and then NONE yesterday .. but boy I was tinkling like crazy yesterday.. I guess thats what happens when you drink all that water :)I was very happy with my eats yesterday. I will be just as successful today! I had a moment last night at about midnight when I woke up hungry.. usually I would just grab a cracker or 10 :) or a piece of bread (or 2).. but last night.. I ate a pear and 5 wheat thins.. (the wheat thins have less carbs).. BUT my plan for today is to boil some eggs to have as a backup for situations like that. .. but once my bananas are ripe I think that will help too :)
