Hid the Scale

Well, I didn't HIDE it. I just put it out of reach so it wasn't so easy to just step up on it.

As a result, there is a weight off my shoulders that may or may not show up on the scale. Still, I won't look. Besides, Mr. W. is taking my measurements again on Wednesday (I just have to remind him- that's why we haven't done so yet).

And this morning I had a really great workout. Instead of just trying to go 25-30 minutes on the treadmill, I did interval training and the time flew by. Plus I felt energized after. Which is what I'd really like to feel after a good cardio workout. After warming up for five minutes (which I never do anymore except in Mr. W's studio), I alternated between 2 minutes of slower running (5.3-5.5) with two minutes of a faster pace (5.8-6.2). Finishing up with about 3 minutes of walking and then 5.4 with periodic bursts of 6.2-7.0 for a total of 30 minutes. It felt great. So, remember THAT when you're all bleh, trudging along at some consistent pace.

I felt so good, I jumped rope for a few minutes before Hitting the Showers.

Still, I don't like getting up so early to do it.

In other news, I hope the temperatures won't hover around 100 the WHOLE summer. I'm gonna have to leave Texas.
