Wednesday, November 10th

Weigh-in, lost .2 pounds.  Yes, that is POINT 2. 

First, I suppose I should talk about the things that went wrong this week.  I went out to dinner with friends two times, which is definitely one time too many.  I also changed up my cardio routine a little by trying out a new elliptical machine.  A friend at work told me that she burned significantly more calories by using the elliptical with the yellow pedals at Lifetime.  I have always avoided those because they are crowded, but decided to give it a try.  She was right--I did burn more calories, but the sensation was also completely different.  Instead of feeling like I was jogging and sprinting, I felt like I was climbing.

Speaking of crowded machines, I am going to take a moment to vent about gym etiquette.  Nothing annoys me more than when someone hops on the elliptical machine next to me when there is a row of the same machine available.  Why do this?  Are we supposed to motivate each other?  Unless we are personal friends, I would prefer to have space...even just one machine between us, please.  Also, no matter how proud you are of your body, please put a shirt on over your sports bra. 

Okay, back to my tiny loss this week.  I am really not that upset over it since I had two huge weeks prior to this.  Plus, something FANTASTIC happened.  I am officially back into my pre-pregnancy Lucky jeans!  I think that is even better than a 2 pound loss.  :)
