Xercise 365

In the Zone

When I'm not dieting, it is an absolute necessity to weigh myself every single day -- if I don't wish to pack on the weight.  Something about the honesty of those cold hard numbers.  I wonder, though, if it is advisable to do that while engaged in a diet because the incremental change is too small.  Perhaps I should just weigh once a week.  I go back and forth on it, though. 

 

I really thought I was feeling really yucky and tired and even put "bone tired" as my Facebook status tonight.  But something weird happened when I got on that bike tonight.  When the thirty minutes were up, I didn't stop.  Maybe it was that I was watching Grey's Anatomy at the time (a guilty pleasure).  Or maybe it was my fascination with those numbers on the digital readout of my bike.  I watched myself go almost 7 miles, burn 400 calories (I hope they all came off my hips!), and spend 45 minutes when I only set out to do a lackluster 30...

 

So, today, I feel like a champ! 

 

Today's Exercise:  45 minutes on the stationary bike.

1st the obsessive weighing thing. Oprah's guy "Bob Greene" says to weigh once a month....not sure I like that. Every day may be a bit much for me though, especially at the end of this pregnancy. Kind of self-defeating at this point.

And Gray's Anatomy...yup. We are currently with out TV but I keep hoping someone secretly reads my mind and buys me all the seasons on DVD... pathetic :-)

My inhouse exercise of choice (when I'm able to see my toes) is Tae Bo or Gunnar Petersons' Core Essentials...how said they are both informercials and I have to admit I got sucked in. But they do seem to really make a difference even when I am unable to go full intensity like they do. I'll work back up to that in February...or maybe March. :-)
