I'm turning into a crazy person
Well, some of my friends may debate the "turning" part, but today after my 5k run at lunch (which involved some more walking than I like, but the legs were rather tight after yesterday's boot camp kickin'!) I decided I "needed to do more". So, I found a quiet spot on the island (Prince's Island, very close to my office) and did 5 pushups, 5 tricep pushups (all from the toes), held full plank (no knees for this chickie!) for 30 seconds, flipped to my back and held static legs at 45 degrees to the count of 20, did 35 crunches, 20 bicycle kicks and a v-sit to the count of 20. Then I got up and did 10 sumo squats and 10 lunges on each leg. THEN I went back to work and had lunch. I think what scared me most, is I'm already thinking about how I'll incorporate this EVERY day. And I asked our trainer J. if he had weekend classes I could drop in on, because (can't believe I said this out loud) the break between Thursday and Tuesday's class is too long...sigh... I used to be cut though...82 pounds and what seems like a hundred years ago, I was cut. My boyfriend was jealous of the definition I had in my arms and legs. And I had abs... So maybe all this bootcamping has returned that love of the burn. It hurts while you're doing it, but it really is a good hurt. If it's a bad hurt (followed by a ping or popping sound) stop what you are doing and seek medical attention!!! But the good hurt is a good thing...turns out I missed it.

Well, I think it's funny that your blogging about losing weight and getting into shape and I'm blogging about food and I also need to lose weight and get into shape,(any shape)! I need to find a happy medium.
You're being inspirational! Keep it up!
