AM you will love this. Yesterday at brunch my mom was complaining that she's running like 6-7 miles every time she goes to the gym (actually on the stairmaster/elliptical but same idea) and hasn't lost any weight in like 6 months. She dropped 10lbs right away about 2 years ago and since then, nothing. She's starting to put it back on actually (just a couple of pounds). She wanted to lose 20 total so she's halfway there.

I asked if she lifts at all - she said she does, light weights. I asked if she's increased them at all. Nope. No increase in weight in almost a year.

SO I am meeting her & my dad on Saturday at their gym to introduce them to the barbell. laugh out loud Gonna teach my mother to deadlift, squat, bench press & overhead press (we'll do cleans some other time). Whee I also have her 1/2-way convinced to try a low carb diet since "you can't outrun your calories."

(just realized I'm typing this while I sit here eating pizza BUT I lifted heavy today so Stick Out Tongue)
Yeah.... I've been busting my tail for 4 months now with all kinds of muscle tone and endurance building, but no weight loss. HOWEVER.... I've lost 3 inches around my middle, so I'm happy! Weight's just a number - it's how my clothes feel that matters!

I haven't slept in days. And daays and daaays and daaaays and daaaaays. Sleeping pills, fark you. I've been playing Grand Theft Auto since like 3:30 a.m. except for when I made the kids cinnamon bread for breakfast and took Elizabeth to school. laugh out loud So when I was driving Elizabeth to school I had to remind myself I was in real life and I shouldn't run over pedestrians and slam into cop cars. I don't even do the missions in that game much, I just like running over people. I imagine it's Bertha or Tiger or something, heh.

I made cauliflower fritters tonight. I'm really enjoying substituting cauliflower for potatoes. Like I thought I'd hate making mashed cauliflower instead of mashed potatoes but there really isn't a huge difference. And it's like I'm sneaking vegetables in cause I typically hate veggies, lol.

But I did splatter a bunch of olive oil onto my stomach when I was flipping over some chicken and now I've got a hugeass burn on my stomach and it really hurts.

Does anyone watch American Idol anymore? I'm watching it now. The judges bug me even though I truly do like Steven Tyler.

I don't think I own an apron. I should probably get one laugh out loud

I love (most) wii games. It's like exercise but actually fun at the same time, lol. I remember the first time I did some bowling game and then my arm was sore the next day. I was all "Whoaa...wtf?" lol

Scratchchin Not sure... it tells me how many calories I burn. And I just got a heart rate monitor watch/chest strap thingie so maybe I can put it in that way? Gotta do something over the summer when swim team interferes with gym time.

There is a category for video game dancing. I'm not sure if it amounts to the same as zumba would.
I have Just dance & zumba for wii. Though I haven't used the zumba in along time Embarrassment

I did Just Dance 0:30:00 || Moderate (+96 pts) , so with zumba being more intense, the video game category may work.

I need to find more time to try it again! I know its fun & it makes you sweat. laugh out loud

Actually, the more I think about it - the more I'd just label it Zumba. I know how much I have to work to get a workout in class, and I can dance to that intensity at home. My heart rate monitor should corroborate and if it's close, I'm good to go!

I've been freaking OBSESSED with this song since I caught the second half of The Thomas Crown Affair one night last week.

Sinnerman [youtube.com]

It plays when my alarm goes off now - gets me right the heck out of bed! Plus it's an awesome way to start the day. AND a really good song.
