Gym is Open (Thu & Fri)

Sorry guys, I was at a seminar yesterday.  Didn't think to ask anyone to open the gym for me. Didn't go to the gym yesterday.  Today, I just did cardio.  30 min treadmill and 20 min bike. What did you do to move your body today? Lori

I tried to go to the rec center yesterday, and there wasn't a parking spot to be had within doable walking distance (even the usually plentiful handicapped spots were taken) -- it was 99 degrees in Denver yesterday and thus the pool was packed!  All I wanted to do was go to the cardio room!    Since I didn't get to exercise, I didn't even think to see if the gym had been opened.  Sorry about that. I took my sibling to the airport this morning -- she is going on a two week Alaskan cruise with her kids.  So, it's just me and the dogs.  I left a message on her cell phone while she was en route to California that if she called and didn't find me at home, it's because I took the dogs and am driving her new Highlander Hybrid to Norway, naked.  Oh, yes, I did go to the rec center this morning.  Since she had to be at the airport at around the time Lorraine goes to the gym ( to Lorraine), I was at the rec center by 8 AM.  I did 10 minutes of treadmill, 20 minutes of armbike, 10 reps @10 lbs of some of the weight machines, and 3 minutes on the in-line skating machine at level one.  I like that machine!  Perhaps using it will shift some of this tonnage off my thighs.  Don't tell Dr. Gloomy, I'm not 100% cleared for all activity.

I've been using cleaning and laundry as my workout lately, and it seems to be working - I lost some weight.  I've been doing the kinds of things I never do, like making the bed and vaccuming everyday.  The bonus is that it looks great in here.  I hope I stick to it.   I even moved the fridge and washer and dryer out  of their spots and swept/mopped under them.  Thats not nornally a place I venture, and it turns out that under the dryer was a sock graveyard.  Its been rainy and slightly less disgustingly hot here for two days or so, but when this rain stops I don't think I want to go outside.... ever again.  Its going to be miserable.  Fat and jungle heat never a good combination.   I have a salon/spa appt tomorrow (gift certificate)  I'll have to put up pictures of my new hairdo - unless of course they bungle it.  Have a great weekend!  I leave for Vegas sunday, so have a great next week too!

Yesterday, I did 25 minutes of powerwalking and an hour of water aerobics. It's raining today but between the showers, I got in a powerwalk lap and did 30 minutes of strength training with weights and my stability ball. Have a good day!

Hi Lori, I didn't go to the gym yesterday. I was off and stayed home all day. Today I did 35 minutes on the treadmill and different machines for 30 minutes. I also sat in the sauna for 10 minutes. I guess thats what you call the room with the stones that is hot as he!!. LOL

I haven't been to the Y since Monday.  Today, John and I went for 2 hours of water aerobics.  My process to become an instructor starts on Monday.  I did add my son to our membership at his request.  He has enjoyed going to water aerobics twice, and wants to continue.

I've really missed my time at the pool this week - we've just had so many crazy things going on that I couldn't get there.  I hate it when stuff like that happens!  I can't go tomorrow either, but next week will be different!
