I haven’t been posted as much lately – feeling rather blah. No particular reason, just blah. Anyway, had a good weekend, although it was not good from diet standpoint. Saturday night we were invited to a friend’s home for a barbeque, and of course there was tons of good food (and wine)....
I went for a run!

Work up before the alarm this morning (6:40am), the sun was shining, it looked like a great day. I tried a new yoga program I downloaded – Yoga for Cyclists (20 minute). It was a good stretch for legs, but is meant to do after a ride, so not the best for first thing in the morning. It will...
Crazy morning
posted by abby
What a day! Started off not too bad: up at 7, did a bit of stretching, weighed 137.0lbs. had a nice breakfast of 1 egg scrambled with egg whites, spinach, onion and mushroom. Cooked down some ham stock I had simmering overnight in the crockpt, started some “baked” beans in another crock...
Happy Friday
posted by abby
Happy sunny Friday! This morning’s yoga was Yoga for Weight Loss #2. It was OK, it had a rather quick flow right at the beginning, and I think I should have done something a little slower. My hips and lower back need more stretching, maybe at lunch. Had a pretty good workout over noon hour...
Sore
posted by abby
I think I am a little sore from yesterday’s workout – my mid-back specifically. I increased weight on my rows, I think that did it. Did not do any stretching this morning, but did 30 minute Detox yoga over noon hour. It was ok; a bit slow, but the balancing postures really did challenge...
Hump Day

Woke up 10 minutes before the alarm again (7:20am), yay. And I was up late doing work. It’s a beautiful sunny day, wish my leg was up for running, but its still not, so I did some yoga – Power Vinyasa #5. I don’t remember doing this one before, it was OK, but I don’t think I will get a...
Relax

Drank too much wine last night – had a big cook-a-thon. It was fun, but I need to be more careful with the wine – I tend to over-season when I drink too much. Hard time getting up this morning (was up til after midnight cleaning up) so I took a Bronkaid with my caffeine, woohoo, I am...
Motivation Monday
posted by abby
Today was one of those days when I really didn’t want to go workout over the noon hour, but just got in my car and did it – ended up feeling good and having a great workout. Love that post-workout glow, . I am going to try to avoid dairy for a few days to see if it helps my digestion. I...
TGIF

Yay for Friday! It has been a rather uneventful week; maybe that is why it seemed so long. Last night I crashed early, was feeling weird. Opened a bottle of wine but it wasn’t feeling right, only had a glass, maybe less. Tried to play a game of pool with hubby, but I was just feeling...
No Title

Managed to get up today before 7am, weighed in at 137.6lbs, not too bad. Went out after meeting last night for wings, had 2 vodka sodas. The wings were yummy, but really didn’t need to eat that late. Did Power Vinyasa #1 this morning – I always like the Power Vinyasa flows. There are 5 of...
Sleepy

Attempted to get to bed early last night and up early this morning, managed to get to sleep sometime after 11pm, and up at 6:40am. Did a 30 minute yoga class today (although I stopped a few minutes short), the Hip Opening Flow. It was good, I would do it again, I liked that it includes dancer...
Changing my ways
posted by abby
I think I need to change my training, the long cardio (running) sessions have not been good for my body (although the dog loves them). Been reading about CrossFit Endurance, also stumbled across this blog – it is really speaking to me right now. 1:55pm Did yoga over noon hour - 20 minute...
