Nothing yet today, this whole work thing is interferring with my recreational life! LOL
Anyway, April was the GOYA est month I've had in years overall!
The scales now identify my speices as Right Whale instead of Blue, which is slight, very slight progress. Yet, if I keep doing more and eating less sooner or later I'll lose real weight, right? Please say yes!

Oh, rested tonight. Daughter had late hurdles session, and I've got a slight tear in my calf. A few reps of handweights. Oh good to hear your progress Treadly. And the answer is YES!! Sometimes you can plateau, don't get discouraged, keep at it.

OUCH, coogee! A slight tear is NO FUN. Awesome DT! Of course you'll lose weight. Rick did and so did Mando. Just keep adding on a little at a time and in no time you'll see a difference. When you hit a plateau you usually have to increase the intensity more than you need to increase time. Intervals would be a good idea for you. You burn as many if not more calories doing 1/2 hour of intervals than with just a straightforward workout that doesn't very in intensity. It's a faster and more efficient way to workout. OK, I'm going on a hike with a friend of mine who has two babies. I get to carry one. I've never hiked with a pack before so this baby better still be on the light side. LOL.

Anne- be prepared for puke on your shoulder!

Busy day today. Things are growing and getting green so there's a lot to do. Today I did 40 min elliptical, spent the day of sitting on my butt at the office, then outdoor chores- breath the air and enjoy the sun....Finally. Clean the barn, run a new fenceline in the side pasture, nurse my poor lame horse till she's bettter, shove a pill down the cat's throat, and ended the evening with a long walk through the woods with my border collie.

Ahhhhhh- feet up.

Take care of that calf Coogee. And Treadster, I would agree that work puts a major crimp in my lifestyle.
