This is a place to post workouts and training tips. Our goal is personal fitness and the benefits it brings. For me, that means running marathons. What does it mean to you?

Week in Review
I had a solidly "OK" week. I went way over on my carbs a lot, but managed to stay within reason with my calories. (Chris was home this weekend.) We went to a gun store near Seattle on Saturday and ate Arby's for dinner on our way home. (Oh how I love a Beef n Cheddar!) Yesterday, pepperoni pizza was my downfall. I still managed to pull out a 1 pound loss for the week though, so I am happy.
It just got REAL up in here ya'll!!! I joined up with Karla on DietBet! It seems like a great motivator AND since money is involved, my focus and determination are greatly increased! I signed up for the "Slim Down for Summer" challenge and my goal is to get down to 188.5 by September 18th.
My goals for the week are to exercise everyday and keep my diet within my MACROS everyday! Whether the exercise is on the treadmill or doing a HIIT workout, or whatever, I want to do something everyday. Chris is home most of this week as well, so I really need to buckle down with my diet. I do a great job when he is gone, but not so much when he is home. I did my meal prep yesterday so have some really healthy options to take to work for lunch. I am already planning my meals for next week and they are going to be super yummy!
I hit the treadmill this morning before work and went nearly 2 miles. It's crazy how fast you lose your conditioning when you fall off the fitness wagon. Since Hanna does not like to eat breakfast right after she wakes up, it gives me the perfect excuse to exercise before I feed the dogs and horses. The plan is to hit the treadmill Monday, Wednesday and Friday and then do HIIT on Tuesday and Thursday.
BRING IT ON!
