I did my standard week this week

Upper and lower body weights
50 minutes elliptical
20 minutes treadmill

Tuesday:
1 hour elliptical
30 minutes treadmill

Wednesday:
1 hour elliptical
30 minutes treadmill

Thursday:
Upper and lower body weights
50 minutes elliptical
20 minutes treadmill


This was the first time in a while I went straight through for 4 days. Usually I take a break somewhere in there. But Man, it's Friday, and I'm tired! :D

The strength-training is really helping. Overall, I'm down 17.5 lbs from where I started. :-) So, happy about that.

1. I got up too late Monday to go in

Though I made it in Tuesday-Friday. Walked Saturday and since it was so nice I was out and about later, which involved more walking. Boy do my calves hurt! I was going to do cardio today but that would just make the calves worse (except the bike, but the seats are too uncomfortable to stay on for more than 20 minutes). I have a pilates video I borrowed from a coworker that I might do later.

It's great that the lifting is helping with weight loss. I become muscular very easily so my size doesn't change with lifting though I get a little heavier I guess due to the muscle. I guess I'm just naturally butch (I've had elevated testosterone levels as well which probably helps). :)
