Week 3 Day 6

I did a horrible job drinking water today. I don't know if I just wasn't thirsty all day or what but I didn't drink anything until late in the day. I just didn't think about it.
This evening when Eli got home from work we went for a bike ride in Bristol Village. I rode approx. 4.5 miles. I felt good when we were done.

Week 3 Day 5

Today was Mother's Day. I must be honest, I took the day off from exercising. I feel like I was constantly on the go Sunday though. I had some pepsi with lunch but then drank water the rest of the day.

Week 3 Day 4

The day started early. So I started with Wii fit before anyone else was up and moving. The rest of the day went pretty slow though, I got a headache. We did end up doing some geo caching and I spent some time with a friend.

I did great drinking water all day. I did have a little pepsi in the evening.

Week 3 Day 3

Today was a busy day. I started out the day doing some Step Aerobics. I had to head out to the grocery to do some shopping for the Mother's Day event at the church. I was in a hurry so I think I am counting the pushing 2 40 lb. kids I a shopping cart at a fast speed as exercise. I was on my feet moving all day.

I did such a bad job at eating and drinking today. I was so wrapped up in what I was doing that I just forgot to eat or drink. I did only drink one non water beverage for the day though.

Week 3 Day 2

I am a little behind on blogging. I couldn't get signed into my account, they were doing some maintenance I think. And then I just got super busy with everything going on.

I did the Wii fit today and did step aerobics, boxing, running, cycling.

I did really good drinking water today. It's not so bad when it's Ice Cold.

Week 3 Day 1

There is nothing like getting past that first 15 minutes of exercising. I did another 2 minute run today. I was very excited, I didn't have a hard time till I got to the end of the run. I did a variety of biking, running, step aerobics and boxing.
I am not hating water anymore. It does have to be ice cold but it's not so bad. I must admit though that it's hard to not just drink what I want when I want it. After having Ellie home all day because she was "sick" I thought about 5 that I would love to have a glass of wine. But then I thought oh wait that's my one non water drink then. I really enjoy my pepsi in the evenings with my tv. But you know the past couple nights it hasn't been nearly as good. I don't know if I just have a bad 2 liter or what but it's not as good. This could be a good thing though.

Week 2 Day 7

The day started out well. Walking and step aerobics were not too bad today. During the afternoon I crashed with a horrible headache. I did really well drinking water all day. I did have a little Pepsi while watching NCIS: Los Angeles.
I have another $25 dollars that someone gave me that I need to add to my donations. That puts $5 away from $200. I only have $55 more to make my monetary goal.
Thank you all for your continued support.

Week 2 Day 6

Today started out with a raging headache. It was really bad, I couldn't function. At one point Lilly took a blue marker and painted both of her feet tops and bottoms. I had no idea until much later when I was moving again. I tried to get my body moving. My head would just not allow it. Every time I moved it just started pulsing and I thought I was going to throw up. It didn't ease up until about 6PM. At that point in the day it was time to hurry up and do everything I didn't get done during the day because of the headache. I feel guilty for not exercise like I should have but I am not sure it was physically possible for me to.

There have been days during the past couple weeks where I have had a headache and I pushed through it and exercised anyway but this was different.

I did really good drinking water all day. I had a little Pepsi while I watched my shows.

Week 2 Day 5

I know I am a tad behind in my posts. We got home late on Sunday and then getting everyone to bed and such I just had to go to bed myself.
I did get my exercise in but it wasn't nearly as tough or vigorous as before. I think the bike ride on Saturday really did my knee in for the day. I had such a hard time bending it. It hurt when I would go to sit down or go up and down stairs. So I took it a little easy on my knee.

Because I took it easy on my knee I chose to only drink water today.

Week 2 Day 4

Shew what at day it has been. This afternoon we loaded up the bikes a took a bike ride in Bristol Village. Oh man, I can tell it's been a while. My legs are hurting. My knee is really hurting tonight. Not sure what I have done to it.

I did really good drinking water today. I had a Pepsi with dinner.

My head is still hurting so I think it's off to bed soon.

Week 2 Day 3

Motivation is one thing that I lacked today. My knee is hurting and I am extremely tired.

My knee started hurting the day we went to Swap Days and walked for hours. I am not sure what I have done to it. I keep hoping that as the days pass and the more I exercise that my knee will stop hurting.

I started off the day exercising before everyone was out the door and on their way. I started out with some step aerobics and then did another 2 minute run. I had a whole gang cheering me on and letting me know how close I was to being finished. It was kind of nice.

So after that I went back to some step aerobics and then another 2 minute run. To finish out my workout today I did some boxing.

I have not had a non water beverage today. It's 10:04 and man a little pepsi would taste good. I think I might just have a little. But then it's time to hit the hay, tomorrow's yard sale day. There are so many yard sales going on this weekend.

We have decided for exercise tomorrow we are going to ride bikes.

Thank you all for your support and encouragement. It really means a lot to me to know that people believe in me.

Week 2 Day 2

I am so sorry I didn't blog last night. I had a headache and just couldn't do it.

I started out the morning with 30 minutes of Step Aerobics, 2 minutes of running, and some boxing. I also went for a 30 minute walk.

Running was hard! I know some of you say really 2 minutes of running is hard but really it was. I had to scream at myself to get to the end of 2 minutes.

I didn't drink as much water as I have been drinking. I got busy doing stuff and just didn't think about it. I did however only have one non water beverage yesterday.

I received another donation yesterday. So no I am only $80 away from my goal. Thank you so much for the support and encouragement.

Week 2 Day 1

Today has been a great day! I can't believe this is week 2. Besides being tired I am starting to feel pretty good. This morning I did 30 minutes of Step Aerobics and 30 minutes of Just Dance. My calves are so sore.

Last night I made some Strawberry Infused water to drink today. It was so good that I refilled the pitcher again for tomorrow.

I was able to get away this evening and go shopping with a friend. I saved my one non water beverage for our time together. We drove through Casa del Taco and got a coke. We had so much fun trying on clothes and talking. We were looking for dresses for this upcoming wedding season. Instead I came home with a pair of jeans that actually fit, a shirt and a light dressy sweater type jacket to wear over things. And I got it all for $10 less that the original price of the jeans. I guess another shopping trip will have to be planned.

I had such a good time tonight. It's been a while since I have done something like that.

Now off to bed so I have some energy for tomorrow.
