I'm really kickin' it into high gear this week. I mentioned how I worked out twice the other day, and yesterday I did the same thing. I ran 2 and a half miles in the morning and then did an hour of aquafit in the evening. Today I'll do another 2 mile run and tonight is a class completely geared towards weight training, so that will be a good hour and 45 minutes of exercise a day for two days in a row. I figure if this won't get me out of my hump, nothing will.

I was talking to my friend Richelle after aquafit last night and her goals inspired me. She doesn't care about her numbers as much as she wants to fit into nice clothes and feel good about it. I think one thing I've been neglecting is that I am feeling much better in clothes than I used to even if my numbers on the scale are not much different. Although it is frustrating to not see progress on the scale, it still feels good to flex my leg and not be able to pinch any fat. I know I have gained significant muscle mass and lost fat so today I'm deciding to be proud of myself for that and not worry so much about my consistent 169.

I picked up a little treat for myself...
It has some awesome alternatives as well as trainer tips and recipes. I'll let you know what changes I make and if they're any good.

Weight Today: 169 (My digital scale is dying and so I'm switching to another scale in the house that says 167. This is actually a number consistent with the scales at the gym but I thought it wasn't fair to just switch to a lighter scale for the heck of it. Now that I'm forced to....oh well)

Workout: 2 1/2 mile run and an hour of weights tonight

Feeling: fit (er)
