Working Out

You're probably going to get a lot of exercise/food posts from now on. Because the gym is currently my LIFE. Seriously, I think I spend more money on gym-related stuff than on rent, which is rather painful.

This morning I dragged my tired butt out of bed at 5:30 so I could get to a 6 AM Team Weight Loss class. (I don't like how they call it Team Weight Loss; I wish it were something like Team Getting In Shape, or Team Stop Talking To Me Now, I Have To Breathe.) We did interval cardio on the treadmills, and then we rowed. This was a mere twelve hours after Jason put me through the wringer during our personal training session. And I spent only six of those twelve hours asleep.

So right now I both feel and look approximately like a puddle of something lumpy and cranky. Also, I have a headache. Possibly due to dehydration. I drank 40 ounces of water in three hours this morning, and I'm still thirsty.

My exercise schedule for the rest of the year is as follows:

Monday: Team Weight Loss, 6-7 PM
Tuesday: Yoga/Pilates Fusion, 7-8 PM
Wednesday: Team Weight Loss, 6-7 PM
Thursday: personal training, 6-7 PM
Friday: Team Weight Loss, 6-7 AM
Saturday/Sunday: something new and/or fun, like ice skating or walking in a park or Wii Sports
It's pretty aggressive (for me), but doable. I think. I hope.

In other news, for Karen, some lovely and heart-warming (heart-cooling?) pictures from a book she recently procured:

Pops!

Good luck, Ann. That does sound ambitious. I hope you will give yourself more sleep so that you have the energy for all that exercising. Keep us in the loop.

Hurray, pictures! The book is just lovely. The author is something of a pops lunatic, but she has inspired ideas.
