It has been a trying week. My stress level is very high and instead of going to bed I've been eating. I've used almost all of my weekly points and that never happens because I make it a point NOT to eat them. Thankfully I have been more active these past two weeks. I'm trying to earn enough activity points to offset the weeklies that I ate. I know I don't have to but I feel better about it and you can't have too much activity!
Last night I did about 40 minutes high intensity, 10 minutes moderate of cardio. Then I got back to my apt and did another 20 minutes of moderate intensity strength training (sit ups, push ups, squats, walking lunges). I'm very sore today.
I promised my ww friend that I would meet her at the gym this morning at 9am. I was a little late but it was okay. I've started doing mostly the treadmill now. I did 10 minutes moderate and 20 minutes high intensity on the treadmill. But also walking to and from the gym is a 20 minutes, round trip. I did push ups when I got back and then ate.
I feel good today
So far I've earned 23 activity points this weekYesterday I earned the majority of them (10).
Great job on the exercise Cristabel!

My DH has been away for a couple of days, so I have the kids myself for this four day weekend. We did a couple day trips: one to Bern to see the bears and the Paul Klee museum and then we went to a museum made in an old mill today. Only rough part is that it has been raining. Come to think of it, it has been raining for three weeks. I have never experienced such a gloomy May...not even when I lived in Russia. It definitely is making the whole country grumpy. We need some sunshine bad.
So exercise has just been walking with the kids. Will get myself back to the gym on Monday. Will try running again just as soon as the rain stops.
Hope you are all doing amazingly well!

And for the QUOTE OF THE DAY
Training gives us an outlet for suppressed energies created by stress and thus tones the spirit just as exercise conditions the body.
