Susan's Slim Down Journey

WEEKENDS TEST MY WILL POWER....

I arrived home from this gym today tired from Paul & Heathers' beating in spin class, how they spin so fast I will never know..... My spin goal is to balance like Paul does, no hands, during the hold portion of the spin routine. I tried it today, nearly fell off the bike!
Did I mention today is Sunday! I was attempting to work off the DJ's wings my honey brought me last night. He wanted to watch a U-Conn basketball game together so I set up a living room pic-nic for us and we indulged, even had a light beer. Corona, with a fresh lime, tastes the same regular or light and SAVES ON CALORIES. (light beer compliments of my work-out partner). I could have finished the entire batch of 25 wings myself. We each had a few, when he said he was full, I pretended I was too. Glad I stopped. I woke up this morning not regretful at all. I had a small amount, did not over do it. It's all good!
My oldest son, who is also a big DJ's wing fan, ate the leftovers, stone cold, for breakfast!

I do have some exciting gym related news to report. This morning, after spin I did my arm routine. Towards the end, when my arms were exhausted, I noticed definition in my shoulders. Looked like fingers coming down the front of them! YEA!!! All this hard work is paying off. Now if I could just get my abs to cooperate I would be thrilled. Belly piercing and a trip to P'Town to see Aimee the bearded lady will be here in no time...
I received some sound advice this week from my co-worker.
Mr. Rixstone, says "its not a sprint, it's a marathon". Slow and steady wins the race. I get it Jeff!
Our next weigh in is coming soon. I will have a significant weight loss if I keep working at this pace. I have started running at home making sure I do a minimum of 5 cardio routines a week.

PS: Mike, your purple Peeps will stay in my gym bag until I see you again in person. I have bought you a second box! And no they don't have yellow legs!
More to come......:)
