Yesterday, late morning, I had a little bit of a surge of energy and decided that it would be a good idea to take advantage of it. So I took the girls for a walk around the neighborhood. I didn’t realize that instead of it being a warm sunny day, our neighborhood had somehow been transported into a very large sauna. I wanted to make it four times around the block, but after twice I was sweating from every pore as if I had spent half an hour on the elliptical. So even though it was only twice, I’m still going to count it as a pretty good work out.
Today I think it’s even more humid than yesterday, so I took advantage of Zale taking a brake before going to a meeting and worked out on the elliptical / torture machine for 20 minutes. Since it’s the first time I used it in I don’t know how long, I was a little surprised that I could do 20 minutes without stopping. I might have been able to go 30, but I wanted to grab a shower while Zale was still watching the girls and just didn’t have the time. It’s still early in the day so I’m hoping I can do something else to add to the diary before the day is over….I guess we’ll see. 
I am happy to report that I’m down 25 pounds since Reagan was born. Not near where I wanted to be 11 months later, but I’ll take it! If I really work at it maybe I can at least be down what I gained during the pregnancy by her 1st birthday. Maybe.
