Week 4 - Day 22

Well, today I woke up in a great mood!! Breakfast was the egg and english muffin. I ate it. I don't particularly like it but I ate it. Man, I'd pay $20 to get some cheese on that!!! Anyway, today we did Stop Sign. I was really energized and ready to go. I just felt really happy today! I'm half way done and had a great weekend. It got all the crazy cravings out of my system and I'm ready to give it my all! Sooo, on Stop Sign i shaved 3 minutes off my fastest time. So, I'm down to 1 hr 14 min. I'm not making as much progress as I hoped to make. I mean, I literally gave it my all! I guess I still have three more weeks to go. I'd like to do it in under an hour but you have to run most of it and I just don't see that happening. Anyway, it rained AGAIN! UGH! I'm sick and tired of getting wet on that damn hike! Anyway, after the hike, I went to my room to get warm clothes! I talked on the phone to my momma for a while and then I headed to Yoga. We had a new instructor and I hated it! I did not like her at all. After yoga, I hung out with Susan and Chris and we went to lunch. Lunch was these lettuce wraps with something inside. I only ate 2 out of the 3. The soup was turnip something. I only ate half of it. After lunch, I came to my room. I skipped open gym and cleaned my room. It was kind of messy. I went to Circuit Training first. Cameron (the owner) was teaching it. Well, let me tell you, he KICKED my ass! I work hard in there but shit... I'm on the treadmill the second station and he comes over and jacks the incline up to 8! I looked at him, and said, "Are you kidding me?!" and he said, "haven't you been here 3 weeks?" and I said, "Yes" and he replied, "Ok, just give it a try but you can do it" I was like OH SHIT! So, then I get to the eliptical. I'm on level 10. He kicks it up to Level 12 and tells me to keep it above 5.0 mph. Once again, I said, "You've got to be kidding me!" and He just smiles and laughs! So, I did everything he told me to. And, I've got to admit, I burned 150 more calories than I normally do. I burned 550. And, by far, worked harder that time then any other time in that class. So, I guess he knows what he's doing! I did do my walk/run thing on the treadmill and I think it's helping. I really want to be able to run, but, I'm just not a runner. Paige says some people just aren't runners. After that was kickboxing. I can tell I'm already getting better in that class and can do more. When we're supposed to be doing stuff in slow motion, I speed it up. I was dead after that class. I burned another 520 in that class! I skipped gentle stretch so I could mail some stuff and shower before dinner. I ended up talking to Katrina on the phone forever! She made me laugh soooooooo hard!!! ohmigod it was a funny conversation. After that, I went to dinner. IT WAS SO GOOD!!!!!!!!!!! It was a barbeque chicken breast! ohmigosh, I thought I died and went to heaven!!!! After dinner, Al, Susan, Chris and I went to Golden Spoon! They made fun of me because I ate my yogurt really slow! I was savoring it! On the way there, I was talking about how I'm in a good mood. And Chris was teasing me asking when I wasn't in a good mood! I thought, Oh buddy.. if you only knew I can be a bitch! but they were all teasing me because I always say "I'm so excited!!!" hahah but today was just a great day!!! I loved it! OH, when I was hiking this morning, Paige walked up and said, "guess what! tomorrow is supposed to be really nice, we're playing tennis, right?!" I was excited. I think she really likes playing tennis with me! So, I guaranteed her I'd be at open gym! So, I'm looking forward to tomorrow!!! I told her about my parents coming! She changed the hike on Friday to Slots because I like it a lot better! I'm in a good mood!!! Now I'm watching the bachelor! I'll talk to you guys later!! Thanks for all the comments! I looooove reading them!!!
