An Amazing Day

Today was just a great day. I'm riding on the weekend high after a kick ass weigh in. I still can't believe I actually lost 5.6 pounds last week. It feels so good to be in a positive place and as energized and excited as I am with everything that's going on. I just hope I can hang onto it as long as possible.

So here's what happened today:
1. Calories burned today = 667 oh ya!
2. Drank 60oz so far today and will probably drink another cup of tea tonight. :)
3. Ate my 3 squares and snack. Dinner was awesome. Turkey burger with a jalapeno, lime, cilantro sauce. Yum!
4. Was very thankful today.
5. Took my vitamins.
6. Tracked my progress. Total deficit today with all those calories burned was 1,241. Schaaaweeet!

Here is what didn't happen today:
1. Didn't do yoga but it's not on the agenda for Mondays so that's fine.
2. Didn't meditate today either. I need to figure out how to stick it in my schedule somehow. So far, I haven't done that.
3. I haven't read or played my guitar yet either. I'll be doing both of those as soon as I'm done with this post. Practice for a half hour or so then read before bed.

Now, why was today such a great day?

My regular work out buddy and I are both doing really well. Actually, we were talking at the gym today and we are both feeling like something just clicked. All of a sudden, our bodies and our minds are catching up with what we are wanting. She was able to run for 2 min intervals today which was totally awesome. So proud of you pooky. :) I think my breakthrough is more about my attitude but that helps EVERYTHING. Just ask my husband.

I also have to tell you about something I'm super stoked for. I recently learned about an exercise class called Punk Rope. I looked on the website to see if there are any classes offered in my area because I was thinking of making it my activity for either November or December on my other blog. Unfortunately, there is nothing offered in the state of Washington. So, I contacted the Punk Rope people and found out that there is a teacher certification workshop being held here in just 2 weeks. So...I signed up for it! Looks like I'm going to be a certified Punk Roper. I'm sooooo excited I can't even tell you. I'll be blogging about it in my other blog if you want to know more. There is also one post over there about Punk Rope already. There's a video to show you what it's about if you're interested. It's super high energy and fun. I can't wait.

Happy Monday. :)

Thank you for being so motivating and supportive. Oh and for helping me count down the last 10 seconds on each of those 2 minutes when I wanted to quit.

I look forward to reading your perspective every day now.

I am so stoked about your punk rope and can't wait for you to bring it home girl!!!

Wow! You are a brave woman! :) How fun does that class sound? I can't jump rope, but I'll still show to your first class and give it a try!

I LOVE that you're in Seattle!
