Today was a good day. Woke up at 4:45am (Which is getting easier to do, believe it or not!). Nice hot shower and got on the scale... -8lbs!! Sweet! I was dreading that all weekend. Even though I worked hard and ate well, it still is a nervous moment to get on that scale.
Got to work and did a little work before actually doing any exercise. Had cereal for breakfast (I miss cereal!) which was great. Went out and did some walking...I think I did 3 laps around the ramp and then did 3 or 4 around the front ramp...a good 45-60 minutes of walking. I stopped at the corporate hangar and dropped off a piece of gear back the JAFS folks. I took a few 30-45 second breaks during my walks to sit down and stretch my back out. It's getting better though. I notice it every single day that it's getting easier. Got some great encouragement again from my friends at work watching me walk every morning. My boss even called at 9am to hit me with a "Saw you walking this morning, Mikey...keep it up, man!"
Work was a little slow...had to fix a few things, but other than that it wasn't bad. Tomorrow I have a lot to do, so I want to get to work as early as possible, walk, and get to it. Matt and I are working on a plan to re-arrange the garage. I would love to get it done before it gets hot this weekend. We'll see what happens. I am also planning on joining XSport Fitness this week and canning Anytime Fitness. I really want to give the pool a try. My knees are really killing me and my back is starting to really give me grief when I'm working out. Thinking about maybe doing some walking and then hitting the pool every morning. Maybe I can get Matt to join with me and he can be my workout buddy. I desperately need a workout buddy. Had a nice salad for dinner and went to Potawatomie Park to watch Dan's softball game. Great game, but tough loss. :( Beautiful night, shame it has to end! Can't wait to go to sleep tonight. Going to finish watching this episode of House M.D. that I started watching and then I'm out. Gotta love the medical shows! Facinating stuff. I should have gone to med school. Yeah, like I have the patience for that. :)
Goodnight friends...thanks for reading and caring! :)
