Checking In

It’s been a few days since I checked in but I do have a good reason that I’ll tell you about later in this post.  But first here are some workout updates.

Friday 1/9- 1 hr swimming

Our neighbor is housesitting and invited us over for dinner and to swim in the INDOOR pool at this 9,000 square foot house. It was massive and so cool.  The pool was a blast and I’m sure I burned a ton of calories doing laps and playing around doing handstands, flips in the water, etc.  Something different, loved it!

Saturday 1/10- played hookie from the gym

We skipped spin class and weights due to the early morning bad weather and I didn’t even work out at home.  Naughty me!  We lounged around all day until I hopped on the computer to take a peek at possible new cars for me.  I didn’t think I would be getting one so soon but we found one that hubby just had to check out so we called about it and braved the snow to go for a test drive.  I didn’t think we would leave with it but the offer was great and they gave us a trade in deal for my car sight unseen (except we did bring pictures).  My old car is a 1998 Chevy Cavalier with under 77,000 miles but needed new tires and a few other things plus I really needed 4wd to get around in the winter season.

I won’t make you wait any longer.  I just traded in this car

for this Dodge Nitro

I love it!

OK, on to Sunday. We made it to the gym for Spin class.

Sunday 1/11-

Stats:

Spin Class (Interval)

Time: 50:00
Calories burned: 692

I got overheated in class and was very queasy afterwards so we decided to skip weights.

And now it’s Monday, my day off from exercise and I weighed in for a challenge I’m doing so I’ll let you know early that I lost 3 pounds since my weigh in last Wednesday.  Very happy about that.

Make it a great week!
