Move It September, Day 13

Finally!

I feel better (still a little headache, but nothing like it's been).

AND ... it was sunny (with a few clouds) and a light breeze when I got home at 6pm. So on with the walking/jogging/running/crawling to Sunrise and back.

3.4 miles total.

58 minutes.

Needless to say, not a whole lot of running/jogging mixed in there.

I'm really excited in that I ordered some new shoes today. Man oh man, I hope they are good for my poor feet.  New Balance Women's WT20 Trail Minimus shoes... paid $45.42 after my Swagbucks and Amazon points. Heck of a lot better than $99.99 plus tax and shipping ...

Not so sure how much this will help me out because I also have the stamina/breathing/runny nose issues :)

So how about it...are Moving It In September??

Move It September, Day 12

Monday .... ahhhhhh.....

I still felt like crap. Headache, woozy, just weak and icky.

I did move boxes at work.

And I made it a point to do walking squats when I walked down the long hall at home.

But that pretty much sums it up for the day.

Move It September, Day 11

It's the 10 year anniversary of the most tragic day in the history of America.

I had every intention on doing SOMETHING active today.

However, woke up with the migraine headache and major neck ache (right at the base of my skull {shudder}) that made me want to throw up.

Hubby must have seen it in my eyes. He was super sweet today. So was Kitty Kitty. And Gman.

So no Moving It In September this Sunday. There is tomorrow ...

Move It September, Day 10

Its' Saturday. ...which is really a BAD day for me to plan an exercise program.

Should I do the Plyo?
Or maybe go for the Core?

Both are P90X kick but dvds. Uh huh.

I opted for boating instead. Yeah, boating is a workout ... especially if we are out in the ocean blasting around, gotta use the leg muscles to balance yourself :)

I'm proud to say that I did not drink a single beer. I had a few sips, but honestly, 4 maybe 5. They didnt' taste good so this no drinking thing may just work afterall! Woohoo!

Move It September, Day 9

We are doing some heavy duty cleaning and reorganizing at the office and that is what my workout consisted of today ...

Moving 51 boxes. Yes, 51 file boxes. OMG.

Moving 6 file cabinets, Yes, they were empty BUT do you know how heavy metal file cabinets are? Dang heavy.  Of course, all the manly men in the office were like, no no, we got it and I'm like NO NO, let me help! :)

I know it was a work out because dang, my shoulders ached the next day!

Move It September, Day 8

Pouring rain when I got home, as in borderline flooding.

So I turned on the dvd player and stuck in the P90X Plyo cd. Great cardio and leg work out.

Except, I forgot how hard it IS. But if it's not HARD then it's not worth it I suppose? Not my motto, trust me!

So I managed to do 30 minutes of it. Uh huh. That's it. And my legs and butt are on FIRE.

Did you Move It?

Move It September, Day 7

Uh huh, I'm FINALLY feeling better ... so here's today's deal!

Walked. Sort of.

Went to Doctor for follow up. Sent me to hospital for x-rays. Hospital is about 5 blocks one way. It was early still in the day and well, heck, it was NICE outside. So I walked. 10 blocks total. Not to mention the walk through the hospital maze.  Funny, a squirrel kept coming up to me ... was just a little too close for comfort. :)

For once when I got off work, the sun was sort of shining, and NO thunder and lightning. Unfortunately, Hubby wanted to do a stop at Bed Bath & Beyond to replace the rugs given to Sonny Boy.

So I had to satisfy myself with just doing 20 crunches and 10 pushups. Woohoo. Better than nothing!
