Week 5

Sun~ 5/31/2009
Today was another rest day for me. I took my daughter shopping for a dress for her 8th grade graduation, got her new shoes too. I Had a good time looking and helping her try on dresses! She picked the most beautiful dress! It kind of reminded me a bit of the dress that Marilyn Monroe wore over that grate thingy. It really looks beautiful on her.

I forgot how exhausting shopping is! Just got home a bit ago. I'm gonna chill for a bit and then prepare dinner, I'm going to have a lobster tail with lemon butter. YUM!!!

Mood: great!
Carbs: 9 g
Ketosis: Large

OMG! Another killer workout, these firm classic tapes are hard as hell! I was all gung ho to work out and I wasn't even 10 minutes in and I was pooped! I know I was alot younger when I did these workouts not to mention a lot lighter but man! I did my best keeping up took a break here and there and more there and a few more here's and then started back up again when I could breathe! HA! Ha! I feel much better now that it's over! I think I'm going to have to do a Firm Classic Challenge and incorporated those every week and rotate volume 1-6 for a month or two so I can whip myself back in shape! Dang! I thought I was in pretty good shape for a gal pushing 40! Bummer! But I'm still thrilled! Did you see my stat post??? Not bad losing 1% fat in a few weeks! Gotta go! Have a good day everyone! See ya latter! I'll be back to post my ketosis level tonight!
