Just an FYI...

We went to the farmer's market this weekend and mama also gave me some couves from the garden. I have been doing "green smoothies" every morning and it feels great! Might be psychological for now, but that is okay. Some days I have it alone in a huge glass, other days I have a glass with a piece of wheat toast or an egg.

I haven't been great about my diet so this is just a first step in the right direction and I am feeling good about the diet and exercise at this point :)

Woo-hoo...we can do it!!

Lilly Workouts 14 and 15

Monday: 45 minutes on treadmill

Best part: feeling like I was finally back on track working out almost everyday this weekend!

Tuesday: 35 minutes on treadmill

Best part: doing it right after dinner and getting it done early (I usually wait until about 8:30 to make sure Ewan is alseep).

Ewan was a bit confused and kept running in saying "mama,mama!" :)

Lilly Workout 13

35 minutes on treadmill

Best part: "making up" the workout I missed the night before...I think if it wasn't for this challenge workouts would be missed and not made up and then I'd slip back into not working out at all.

Weight this morning: 172 (-6)

Lilly Workout 12

45 minutes on treadmill (Friday night)

Best part: Having a great workout with mostly running even though I was tired right before.

Ang Workout 13

45 minutes on the treadmill

Best part: getting out to the gym and having some time all to myself.

Ang Workout 12

25 minutes in exercise bike

Best part was that I managed to get any workout at all with the kids demanding my attention every 3 minutes.

Lilly Workout 11

35 minutes of hip-hop cardio

Best part: Trying to get in a different workout than running.

Worst part: the commercials on Hulu...need to find another workout DVD!

Ang Workout 11

Yoga DVD ~25 minutes

Best part was that I did something at least. Lucas wasn't in the mood for me to do anything but pay attention him.

Lilly Workout 10

Workout: 35 minute treadmill run

Best part: I got up early in the morning to do this. It was nice to get it out of the way in the morning and I was proud that I did it after running the night before!

Ang Workout 10

Cardio/Strength DVD

Best part: Did the next level up and it didn't feel that hard.

But I think the abs section of the DVD is hurting my back. May need to find a new routine.

Lilly Workout 9

45 minute treadmill run/fast walk

Best part: getting back on track and working up a great sweat!

Oh, and a co-worker said I look like I've lost weight today :)

Lilly check-in

Weight this morning: 173.4 (same as last week)

I have been sick all week and then we had a conference at work so it has been extremely busy. I know, there are always excuses, but I feel much better and plan to make up a lot this week (like you did last week).

Ang Workout 9

Cardio/strength DVD

Best part: How much easier it was compared to the first few times I did it. Still pretty tough though!

Ang Workout 8

45 minute yoga DVD

Best part: How good my back felt after, and how quickly I fell asleep!

Ang Workout 7

30 minutes on exercise bike + stretching

Best part was that I just hopped on and did it. And taking the time after to stretch felt good.

Weight: 135.5 (-1.5)

Hoping to do another workout this evening to help get caught up. We'll see!
