Afternoon Warriors!

Walked on Wednesday - morning and lunchtime. Beat my previous time for my lunchtime 1.5 miles walk, so it's time to extend my distance. I am trying to keep the time constant at 30 minutes, so if I get faster, I walk farther.

No rowing last night - tried to eat some chicken and spent over an hour sliming and pb'ing. Teach me to chew better! :)

Today I walked DDog this morning and walked at lunchtime. Will try to get in rowing tonight, but I'm back in class now and my time is going to get even tighter. No matter - it's only 30 minutes and I can find that.

Going dancing for a short while tonight with DH - theres a club that plays 60's and 70's music on Thursdays, so we're gonna stretch and go to that tonight. Actually, its only a stretch for me - he's on the afternoon shift and can sleep later in the morning if he wants!

I missed my Pilates class so I decided to take a rest day. I think it will be good for my back.

Last night was upper body supersets. 8 exercises/12 supersets/10 reps each/13 pushups btwn each superset.

No cardio last night as we got 7" of snow btwn noon and 7 pm yesterday. Took me too long to get to the gym and then had to go home and snowblow the drive.

This morning I went for distance on the treadmill instead of time. Just did a nice jog of 40 minutes and 4.0 miles. Followed that with 10 minute cooldown.

Tonight, hopefully, will be leg supersets. If not tonight, tomorrow during the day.

I did stationary bike today because we're going to run tomorrow instead of bike at my New to the Sport session.

I need to figure out how to get some strength training and another swim into my week to make my fitness goals.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
