Great day!

So I found out today that I'm getting a raise, and that was GREAT news for me, it will really help me get caught up since I've been struggling after having to pay out of pocket for all of my endoscopy's for my stricture back in February.
I was so full of vigor when I went to the gym, I got on the elliptical and went to town.  I'm like I will just pump it hard and get those endorphins going and rock it out for an hour.  
Well, I did manage to do about 20 minutes at the fastest speed I've done yet, I was huffing and puffing and sweating profusely, and that was about all I could do.  Unfortunately I didn't find that zone, but I will keep trying!
At least I got some cardio in!  I'm going to start taking some upper and lower body weight training classes next week, so I'm looking forward to that.
