B4 Team-The List (a little late)

#1 Post by Bixby17 » Tue Nov 27, 2007 8:28 am

Week 243

What one thing are you doing this week to help with your health and fitness?

Working on these things before the holidays is better than after because then you don't have to deal with the mind and body wreckage that the holidays can bring.





I am struggling with a kink in my back from sleeping wrong. I will work on it and work around it.

The elliptical assembly was completed last night and test driven/walked.

Nice!

Nordic Track 800 -or something. Bought pre-Thanksgiving to capture sales of them trying to clear out this years for next years.

Now to block out the time so I get it when I want and the kids are not on it then.

I am exercising more and eating less! Brilliant! Wonder why nobody ever thought of that one before.

One thing to say it, another to actually do it. I did spend mucho time at the gym on Saturday and especially Sunday. #1 son is in training now for baseball, so I went early in the morning with him, then went back later in the day with the rest of the family. Unfortunately, yesterday was anothing day on the exercise front for me. I hear one or two days of rest a week is good for one, though, so I'll use it as my rest day.

Today I'll put the backup turkey in the roaster when I get home from school, then take the boys to work out, then come home and put dinner on the table.

I have pledged three one-hour workouts a week.

Starting next week.

This week I'll get in one, maybe on Saturday. 15" lifting, 45" cardio.

Stay clam during my two audits this week. Beginning to wonder if I need some of that anti-anxiety drug, between my needless concerns over the SyndieBAM audition test and the, I hope, equally needless ones over these audits, which have been going well all year.

Get more sleep. Extremely tired this AM, which isn't helping the mindset at all.
I just ordered chicken and an egg from Amazon. I'll let you know.

I've been working on the Baby Girl sleep thing, and so far it's been doing wonders for the Mom sleep thing. I actually woke up early today and didn't feel so logy.

I've also developed a Fruit Salad Fetish to get something sweet without eating chocolate. And if you can overdose on vitamin A, I'm on my way, thinking of ways to use up all those 18-cents-a-pound sweet potatoes that seemed like a good idea at the time...

Mr. K--when you say "roaster," do you mean one of those electric ones like a Rival or Hamilton Beach, or just a roasting pan? I've been using one of those electric ones a bunch recently, and the bird cooks faster and are more juicy (but the skin is a tad less crisp from the steaminess). They are great, especially because they free up oven space for the bajillion casseroles people bring at Thanksgiving time.

Et tu, Rexer? :P I actually like The Wiggles, so I won't reach through the screen and strangle you. But I think I watched Racing to the Rainbow 700 times in the last week.....

My girls have "outgrown" the Wiggles, I guess. But once you hear a song about 1000000000000000000000000000000000 times, it kinda gets stuck in your brain. Now it's Hannah Montana and High School Musical 24/7.

I will have a green salad every day.

Once the weather gets cold, I seem to stop thinking of salads.
