I hate step aerobics

Posted by dnbarton on 4th October 2007

well today I went to step aerobics class . I needed some cardio and I had a friend (who’s probably reading this!) to go with… so I went. Ug. I hate step aerobics (: It’s so mundane. Step up. step down. step to the left. to the right. step up up up, down down down. You get the picture. BORING! In case you couldn’t tell… No me gusta! But that’s ok.. because it was Cardio.. and it does feel good to just sweat! Tonight my dh has agreed to go with me to JUST 1 Group Power class. to try it out. I keep telling him that there are several guys that go, and that it’s def a guy type class… and so he said he’d go once. YA! So twice at the gym for me today! Here’s my food so far…

It was a good day (:

Posted by dnbarton on 20th September 2007

Today was a great day as you can see by my title.  I did well, stayed w/in my points range, and worked out really hard!  I made this yummy pizza ball yesterday that only ended up being 7 points for 1 whole ball and I was excited about that considering it was made with white flour dough.  I bet someone could make it just as good with a lower calorie dough.  I just used frozen bread dough, defrosted it, but didn’t let it rise much (in the fridge).  I divided the loaf into fourths and flattened out each section of dough, put turkey pepperoni and mozzerella cheese on it and then rolled the dough up into a ball.  I made 4 of these and then baked them according to the directions on the dough.  YUM!  You can dip them in pizza sauce if you want, I don’t really care for it so I just ate them plain.  Hmm… other than that… don’t have much to report in.  I’m getting excited to weigh in. Don’t know when that will be… I suppose I should do it before my birthday to see what my total weight loss was by then.. but I doubt I”ll be around a digital scale between now and then.  I might have to wait till NEXT Friday.

Workout Monday

Posted by dnbarton on 10th September 2007

Yah! Back on track - went to the gym this morning - better late then never - missed my 9:00 class but went at 10 and did 35 minutes of interval training on the eliptical.  Felt great! I also did some abs and tricep work.

Earned - 2 activity points.  Don’t know if I’ll use them or not!
