Thursday JM Banish Fat Boost Metabolism 50 minutes

Plus, two hours of playing at the park with Q's kindergarten class

This Week

Um.  I think I last posted on Monday.  So, Tuesday I did Aloha day outside with the kids at school.  Kind of like field day, only shorter.  Only 45 min instead of 3 hours.  Then yesterday I did heavy duty cleaning for 1 1/2 hours.  Trying to get the house in tip-top shape before we leave for vacation in a week and two days.  Did about an hour of heavy duty cleaning today.  I think I'll do some lighter stuff tomorrow and Saturday, so I can get a more conventional work out in.  I like being more active!  I feel like my old self.  Like, before I got pregnant and sick the first time with Jonni.  I don't think I've had this much purely physical recovery time since then.  Now I just have to get the hang of house-holdy stuff.  I've never been well enough to really learn the right ways to keep my house in order.  Intimidated!  Overwhelmed!  But one bite at a time, I'm starting small.  One room of the house, and then when I've got that mastered, I'll radiate out.  And hopefully teach my kids some better habits along with me.  They have to help me with the one room, lol!  I'm paying them though, so that sweetens the pot. :D

Wednesday Biking 1 hour 15 minutes

Plus, sitting in the dentist office waiting for V for 2 1/2 hours. :P

Tuesday JM 30 Day Shred Workout 2 (25 minutes)

With 10 lb free weights. Ugh! Strength workouts are so much harder when you take a week off!

Tuesday Running 50 minutes (while pushing the jogging stroller)

I might try and do a JM strength workout after the littlest monster is in bed too ;)

Swimming 55 minutes

10 minutes breaststroke
10 minutes freestyle
10 minutes backstroke
5 minutes freestyle
10 minutes backstroke
5 minutes freestyle/backstroke sprints
5 minutes kick board

First time doing sprints! It was fun ;)

Also- 2 hours light yard work (mulching, pruning, light weeding)

My Monday

So, again today, not a conventional workout.  I worked at school again.  I was going to do a workout when I got home, but I'm spent!  Those ladies really have me running all over with the end of the year stuff.  I love it, though!
Aaaaaaaaaand, today was a weigh day.  I lost three pounds!!  What the what?!  This crazy way I've been losing is so frustrating, but it's nice when I get a big drop like that, lol!  I am now 1 pound from my vacation goal weight, which is a week from Friday.  I mean, what the freak.  Four weeks ago there was no mathematical way to lose enough to meet my goal by vacation.  Not that I'm complaining!!  That also means that I'm eleven pounds away from my Ultimate Goal.  Hello old body, how I've missed you!!  I am fluffier that I was the last time I was at this weight, but that's because of the sore lack of work outs.  Now that I'm back in my groove (you hear that, toe?!), that should change, I hope quickly.  My goal by the end of the summer is to start one of those Jillian weight workouts on video.  My weight goal is to hopefully hit my Ultimate Goal by the end of the summer.  :D
