Yep, I am feeling really good! I know it has something to do with the personal training because my body just feels so much stronger. I am starting to really focus on looking for good vegetarian meals that are easy to make. I did end up with a bum knee this week from my Monday personal training sesh but it was not with either of the trainers I had previously. All is good in the world now that I have chosen primary and secondary trainers. And my knee is much better!
Now to my workouts for the week….
Monday-
*Elliptical
Time: 11 min.
Miles: .77
Calories burned: 103
*Personal Training (lower body)
Time: 30 min.
*Treadmill
Time: 35 min.
Miles: 2.40
Calories burned: 346
Ran 7 one minute intervals and felt good. It’s so hard to hit my goal of 10 intervals after a lower body personal training session but I can’t do lower body on Wednesday’s because of spin class afterward so I have to deal with it.
Tuesday- Day Off
Wednesday-
*Elliptical
Time: 10 min.
*Personal Training (upper body)
Time: 30 min.
No spin this night because of bum knee. I did miss going but was not going to push it because I cannot afford to lose much time away from running so had to listen to my gut and my trainer who said no way should I go to spin LOL
Thursday- Day Off (spent day icing my knee!)
Friday-
*Elliptical
Time: 15 min.
Miles: 1.17
*Personal Training (upper body, cardio & core)
Time: 30 min.
Forgot to start watch so no calorie burn counts today.
Saturday- Day Off
Sunday-
*Spin class
Time: 1 hr.
Calories burned: 560
How did your workouts go this past week?
Ang, I’m so glad you are feeling so good. Hope that knee heals up fast for you. Been quiet lately, but been working steadily toward to goal. Love seeing your progress!

Thank you Shannon! Glad to hear you’re still working towards your goals. Hope all is well!
I love your blog here. The big question: does exercise really help lose much weight or is it that exercise decreases our appetite for lousy foods and maybe our desire for large portions?
Is it mainly all about eating less?
Thanks! Welcome to the blog.
I think it’s a combination of things, exercising, portion control, healthy foods. I definitely agree that after workouts I’m craving more healthy foods.
Glad to hear you are feeling so good Angie! I have totally slacked off the last several days and have got to get my butt back in gear cause I’m just feeling icky from not exercising and eating crummy over the Holiday weekend!

Thanks Tishia! I know you can do it so hopefully you’re back on track.
I’m totally in to my workouts … usually LOL Yesterday I was so sore and exhausted that I didn’t go … and today I don’t want to go (but I’m going go make myself go anyway). *sigh* I have arthritis and fibromyalgia and today I feel like I do when I’m “getting sick” so I’m super bummed (probably too much partying over the weekend).
Thanks for posting your workouts … it encourages me. *huGs* Suzanne

Suzanne,
There are many days I don’t feel like going but hubby just pushes me and of course I feel better after every time. Glad to hear you’re encouraged by my workouts.
