I was trying to decide what exercise to do this morning when M went down for his nap. I put in a yoga dvd and that lasted about 7 minutes. I wear a heart monitor and am addicted to getting my heart rate up and watching the calories burned go up and up. Yoga does not provide the instant gratification I am looking for. So, I popped in the P90X Kenpo X dvd. It was more enjoyable than I had anticipated. It wasn't super difficult but it was challenging and before I knew it, the heart rate was up and I was burning those calories. Woo-Hoo!!! I clocked an hour and 12 minutes of exercise and burned 271 calories. This has earned me another smiley face on my goal chart which looks like this:
The visual is really helpful for me. Tomorrow I have a personal training appointment at the gym so I know I'm on way to a good exercise week.
Not much else is going on around here. We had a nice weekend running errands and spending time together as a family. Michael was traveling all last week and came home late Saturday morning. It was nice to have him with us again.
Well...M is awake so I have to run. Hope you all are having a great day!
