Long Days

Life has been a little hectic these past couple of days. I've received a promotion of sorts at work. So, I'm kicking it up a bit to really show everyone that I'm the one for this job. It's honestly great. It's a M-F job, which is hard to find in the LPN world. Also it's 6-2:30, which are like, the best hours ever! So yeah, I'm all cool with that! But it has lead to some long days trying to get situated in with the new stuff.

I've been doing good with my exercising. I met with Lara, my personal trainer, twice this week. Today was hard hard hard. I hate being so out of breath! I feel so silly, standing there trying to breathe. My face gets all red. I don't sweat though. Never. I think I have a sweat problem. Which also leads me to think I have a cooling down problem. Eh. Today I did 20 reps of squats with 30 pounds, these back lift things, I did 15 of those, and then I did jumping squats, again 20. I did three sets of those. Jumping squats are the devil. Especially when you have a large chest that can't seem to find a decent sports bra! Then I did three sets of other exercises, I can't remember what all they are called, but they weren't so bad. And then the elliptical. I'm getting ready to head back into the gym for cardio. I had to wait for the childcare to open.

This is the entry that just won't end. I did end up back at the gym yesterday. GO ME! I did 30 minutes on the elliptical. A hard tasks indeed. After that the Little Man and I headed to the inlaws for some Easter egg hunts today. Great fun was had by all and now I am home.

I've completed 30 more minutes on the elliptical here at home tonight. I'm quite proud of myself for that task.

On the getting healthy front, I've decided to quit doing Weight Watchers. I'm going to count calories for awhile, I don't want to get too burned out with counting points and counting the calories with the GoWearFit.

So that is that.
