Well, it's Friday! We made it through our first week of school here. So now comes the times where we really look forward to Friday. Unfortunately for me, this usually means that I don't eat as well and I don't exercise. This is not a good combo. What happens is that I work hard all week in both my workouts and eating and then I blow it all over the weekend. I haven't been putting a lot of thought into this lately, but today I realized that this could really be sabotaging my weight loss efforts. So I'm going to make it a plan to try not to overeat this weekend and to keep myself more active. Even if I just go out and weed or wash the car, at least I will be moving around. I could even play some Wii Fit!
I started my Friday with a good workout to jump start my weekend. I jogged/ran for 30 minutes. This is a great way for me to start my workouts as this 30 minutes burns about 200 calories. I only burn this many calories when I am running outside. I don't seem to get the same numbers when I am on the treadmill. I then went to a one hour aerobics class. This class was a combination of step, weights & bands with an ab workout on the end. This is a great all over body workout. At the end of the class I had burned an additional 327 calories. So I am on my way to having a great weekend. As I write this down, I hope it helps me to remember to stay on track over the weekend. Stay away from the wine! :)
