Wow, thanks for the informative breakdown of the detox you used. That sounds really good, I think I may do that in February, following the routine I'm currently doing. It seems very beneficial.

Congrats on being asked to have a profile on the Feats of Strength website! That is awesome news, and definitely something to be proud of! You will have to let us know when you're up on it and everything, so we can check it out! Very !

Good job getting your workout in even with a busy house! Your little one sounds soo cute! I can imagine it must be nice to have some 'quieter' time around the house!

Have a great day

Hi Molly..thanks for the support. The crazy schedule is what most people are combatting. And it can definately get in the way. I just keep telling my-
self that if I don't do it, I'll be so dissappointed in myself and that I will
feel so good and positive afterwards. But when the schedule does get in the way, I will try to be as active as I can at my home by either working out at home or just cleaning etc...

Today I did an hour of Yoga/Pilates in the morning.I haven't been doing it very much lately and I needed a good hard stretch with all of the training that I have been doing.I used to do yoga or pilates or a combo of both at least 2 x's per week.I felt like it really kept my back and core stay strong and helped my muscles stretch out and would aide in their recovery from the weight training.I may be full of it, but I do know that when I do do it, I stand up straighter, I get less knots in my back , I am more flexible and I down right feel awesome after!So I was happy to get back to my beloved yoga and pilates combo.Then tonight I ran on my treadmill at home for 30 min.I did a nice warmup for 5 and ran a steady20 min and cooled down for 5 min and did a bit more stretching in the shower.I finally weighed myself and low and behold I have not lost a pound.But I'm okay with it...wwwaaaaahhhh!!
Seriously though, I was surprised to not have lost any weight because I am feeling so tight and I feel much thinner.I have not taken my body fat yet.So that just goes to show you that you definately cannot rely on the blasted scale.You have to go by how you feel, because I KNOW that it will all catch up with me and I will win and lose those stubborn pounds in the end!!It's always that last 10# that wants to just hang on stay put, you know!I will prevail...I've done it before and I can do it again-damn it!
Luvs To All,

Oh my goodness...what a loser I am for not posting!!I have (like everyone else) been soo soo busy. My workouts have been on a screwy schedule and I have just been mish mashing them in when I can get them.I luv to keep my schedule, but I also have to be willing to be unconventional sometimes to keep myself going and not get sidetracked by things like motherhood-haha.Right?I've been working out a lot at home lately because of hairy schedules etc etc. So I have been doing cardio work with dumbbell and band workouts.They get the job done and keep me going, but I do luv going to the gym to get to the heavier weights and the beautiful machines.I feel so good when I get a really challenging workout in.So I am going to try to keep up on the w/out log.And I will post my workout later today.As for now, a big sorry for being MIA for those of you who were following along, and I will return with some w/out info!HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
