Working through the mad people

So....let's discuss the madness of Tuesday.  I woke up on time, happy raring to go and get this weight training on. Then I hit the gym and the old lady dilemma....those broads are gangsta, but I'm more gangsta...or so I think. LOL

I arrived about 9:30 because I was just piddling around the house.  I actually could have been there around 8:45, but that's another conversation.  Ha!  I get downstairs to the weight training area...crowded with the older chicks on machines chatting.  Seriously.  I get the majority of my legs done and I want to get to my hip abductors.  This woman almost knocks me down to get to the machine.  I don't know what my face looked like, but HONEY...she apologized quickly and let me use the machine. #iCant with that foolishenss.  I got finally got my arms done and then headed upstairs for my inclining treadmill time.  I did a good 40 minutes before my bladder kicked in.  I felt so much better getting things done.

Now, I'm here sleepy and thinking a nap is in order since I need to get in at least 1.5 - 2 hours of practicing before a church service.  Then...some cardio after church.  Yea...it's like that for a while.  Gotta get it done...gotta get it done.

Working through the June Challenge

Happy Tuesday!!  Hope all is well with you all in blogger land.  I was going to post earlier today, but I decided to do it after my 2nd cardio workout of the day.  I feel I can hold myself more accountable if I post later.  

Well, my 2nd cardio workout of the day is done.  With my 45 minutes on the treadmill this morning and the 45 on the elliptical tonight, I burned a combined 525 calories. (I love my Polar FT4.)  I feel good and look forward to tomorrow's workouts.  My plan is to hit the weights then get in some inclining on the treadmill for 5o.  I'm actually excited.  Yay me!!

Since I haven't been blogging, I haven't been doing the Friend Making Monday's.  I thought I would do one that was posted last week or something like that.  LOL  Enjoy and join in.

And the summer cometh....June Goals

I haven't blogged in a while and seriously, my weight has been doing the cha-cha all over the place since I took an unexpected blogging break.  So, since I'm learning that accountability makes me do better, I'm back on this grind...  Listen, if you've never had a weight struggle, you just don't understand.  We take one day at a time.

Well, I have to give myself some goals for June.  They may be major to some, but I'm so damn competitive with myself that I will try to accomplish them.  I want to feel better and not the chubby girl that I feel right now...LOL

June Goals:

  1. Gym 2 times a day at least 3 times a week.
  2. Walk/Run 3 miles 3 times a week.
  3. Shake bread/wheat for the month. (My tummy doesn't like it, but I still ingest it and suffer the consequences later.)
  4. Try a couple of new classes.
  5. Hit the pool twice a week.
Okay...this is a lot, but I need to get the gym in....and keep myself focused.

How's you're summer going??
