It has been a while...a week to be exact! I can't believe I haven't been to the gym in all this time. I'm not proud, but a million things got in the way - one or two which were my fault (last night's 4 hour, but unplanned, nap!). Today however, I got back on track. So here we go, real quick:
First I began on the elliptical. I realized why it was so easy for me last time - I didn't set a resistance. I literally was just swinging away as fast as I could go, and it was so easy. This time not so much. I only put it on 7, but it was downright hard. I need to work on that, but I enjoy it. I did this for 25 minutes, while reading Cosmo. Nice. I believe my calorie count was 253. Not bad, not bad.
Next I got on the trusty stationary bike. I put it on level 9, set it to "random hill" and did this for 35 minutes. Apparently I biked 4 miles, and burned something like 130 calories, if that even means anything considering its accuracy.
It's come to my attention that I am going to have to add some other things to the workout. I'll have to visit my old friend the stair master, as unfortunate as that sounds to me. Also, I should do some sort of weight training. Ashley does this leg press thingy, and it seems to be a pretty cool thing. Also they have one machine targeted specifically for your butt, and one specifically for your thighs. Those machines and I need to date. On a regular basis.
So far no weight loss. I know it's going to take a while, but I'm wishing it would start soon. I don't want to have to buy new jeans. Siiiiigh.
In other news: I subbed at a high school the last 3 days. It's a lot different than asshole Elementary kids. I was still in the Lansing school district though, so I encountered all sorts of interesting things. One girl in my class had a tether. To make a long story short, I did my best to not give a shit, and pretty much let them do what they wanted. I'm not about to be a hardass with kids who could kick my ass, and who are only about 4 years younger than me.
I must go - Ashley is making steak, and I'm considering taking a shower since my boyfriend has to put up with my company tonight.
Hopefully more VERY soon!!!
Happy 6th Birthday Jovie!
