Hiatus

Tonight might be the most boring blog yet. I'll be taking a hiatus from tonight until October 1st. I'm headed out on vacation tomorrow and will be back next Tuesday! This is my metaphorical " Out to Lunch" blog!

Dear Jillian Michaels...

Dear Jillian Michaels, Let me be honest and upfront right off the bat. I have never been much of a Biggest Loser fan but I know you from the show and know you're notorious for being a hard ass. Literally your ass is like a rock and metaphorically you're a workout dictator. Until last night I have never really given you much thought as I continued my own weight loss journey. Why? Frankly, you scared me. In fact, you still do. Last night I completed my first "Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred workout." Thanks to you, walking up and down the stairs today was pretty hilarious because my thighs feel they weigh 50 lbs heavier than they used to when I try to use them. Nancy and I tried Zumba first (you remember Nancy right? You're old friends by now...). It just wasn't working for us. 20 minutes felt like a warm up and I didn't even break a sweat. So then we popped in your DVD and Nancy asked "do you want to start with level 1?"  "Sure,...

Best Delivery Guy Ever

Today seems like it was a whirlwind! I'm off to class in a few minutes. It will be my first experience with graduate school with actual people instead of a screen. This weeks topic will be Russia's impact on the Global Economy. I know. You're jealous.  I had a hell of a workout last night though and my food intake has been pretty good this week. Next week I am back to walking and tomorrow night I'm going to kick off my weekend with a walk with Nancy up on Bigelow Hill. Who would have guessed the hill would see walk conditions before in down did? Today I ordered a salad for lunch from the House of Pizza. Every time I used to get chicken burgers and fries, the delivery guy was the same. When I started with "TWTC" he applauded my frequency of salads over fries. From then on I was always a little embarassed to get my old fave because I knew he was paying attention. A couple of months ago he told me he was leaving to live in North Carolina with his son. I to...

You want me to lift WHAT off the floor?!

The last time I wrote a blog, Myspace was popular and Facebook wasn't open to anyone outside of a college email address. I know, I'm ancient. Since Myspace trained me as a blogger, I'm not quite privy to the rules... Should blogs be written at the same time every day? Even if this is a "rule" I'm breaking it because you can't time inspiration. Today is my first immediately post workout blog! Woohoo! As promised today started with interval running and followed up with a bowl of granola and some 30 day challenge workout research. I thought I'd try the 30 Day Ab Challenge from 30DayFitnessChallenges.com. A few points though. First, what the hell is the difference between a crunch and a sit-up? Apparently sit ups are the ones where you have to go all the way up lifting your lower back off the floor and crunches are the ones where your lower back can stay on the floor. To be clear, my lower back does not come off the floor. Really. I just tried it sim...
