Char Gets Thin's Journal, 15 January 2014

Well, one week into two challenges, and so far I'm doing well on both of them. 1 Minute a Day? Really?! is actually blowing my mind...that 30 second burst of high speed on the gazelle, 3 times in a 7-10 min total workout actually tires me out! Of course, I do this workout AFTER hiking 4-6 miles, but STILL! I think it actually is working me harder than just spending 15-20 minutes on the gazelle working at a moderate pace! So YAY, time saving and still helping to get healthier!

My second challenge is to lose 5 pounds this month...shame it didn't start on the 1st, I'd dropped 7 pounds total since then! lol But I'm still dropping, a bit slower now that the initial week is done (LOVE the first week of a diet when the weight seems to just MELT off the ol' body! lol) Can't wait to meet my first goal though...so I can lower my goal weight and get in sight of my old clothes fitting me well again! Not to mention that "goal prize" of looking hot in that bathing suit I bought.

Hope everyone is having a wonderful OP Wednesday! The temps dropped a bit here last night, it's only 45 out right now (but going up to 65...I SO love FL! lol) which means WONDERFUL walking weather. Poor Dink is feeling better, and walking with barely a sign of a limp this morning...but still not well enough to go on a 4-5 mile hike through the barrens, so he's going to be upset to be left behind...again. And I'll feel guilty for the entire time, too. But he gets his walk when I get home...today maybe we'll do the 'hood, so he gets some much needed exercise in, too, but still saves his joints by being onleash.

Well, overslept today (it's so nice to snuggle under the covers when it's chilly outside and your bedroom window is wide open... lol) so better get on with my day before it passes me by!

OH...and hey everyone, what day is it? Hmmm? What day is it??? Come on, I know you can hear me, WHAT DAY IS IT??? MIKE MIKE MIKE MIKE MIKE, WHAT DAY IS IT?????

THAT'S RIGHT! IT'S HUMPDAY!!! Happy Humpday y'all!!! :D
