So I surprised my self this morning. WHen I went to bed I thought for sure I was going to run. I told myself if I felt like weights that would be great too. Low and behold I chose weights this morning! Not like me. But I did the whole thing (well except glute raises and kickbacks because I hate them and some more challenging core moves didn't get my full attention).

This weekend I did some major kick butt cleaning yesterday like hands and knees scrubbing the kitchen and bathroom. I think that counts for something. And I did go for a walk with Luci Saturday night so at least I got outdoors, but I can do better.

Motivation right now is my shopping trip Saturday. I'm almost down 2 sizes! I fit into a dress that was actually 3 sizes smaller...and I bought it!!!! I love it. I still have some roll issues in it, but the dress is made so well that it was still worth it. The nice part was being able to shop in petites for a pair of capris. They are jean and tight (the white ones will not work right now) but I think they look great...and so does Ken.

So keep it up. 2 days of weights/week and cardio the other 5.

Now really I have to admit to doing low carb the past 3 weeks to get to where I am right now, but it hasn't been too bad and I really want to stick to no processed sugar/flour. I think after the weigh in on Easter I'm going to start adding berries and homemade raisin or cranberry bran or Kashi cereal for breakfast right after working out to help keep energy up. I found a nice treat is frozen raspberries and I bought some blueberries yesterday to try that too. We'll see.
