I see you're drinking 1%. Is that 'cause you think you're fat? 'Cause you're not. You could be drinking whole if you wanted to. - Napoleon Dynamite

I was sitting in my living room chair with a big glass of milk and a half eaten box of girl scout cookies, watching something funny on TV….and then I wake up. It was a dream, a great dream – but back to reality…

Well, it’s been a few days since I’ve sat down at my computer so I guess it’s time for an update. Day 5 was legs and back – this was a pretty hard workout but I liked it just fine. A lot of lunges squats and wall sits. Oh my, the wall sits! They were awful. About half way through the second round of wall sits I was having a flashback to volleyball with Coach Vessels – who frequently made us do wall sits. About the time our legs were on fire she would make us sing the Oscar Mayer song – I never quite understood why. Anyway, I had an overwhelming urge to break out into song (which I did of course) and it made the wall sits a little more bearable. So, great workout and I’m not feeling as sore so things are starting to feel normal again.

Day 6 – Kempo (kickboxing) – This was the best DVD so far! Mind you, I’m not flexible enough to kick like Tony does but I really like pretending like I’m either punching or kicking an attacker. After feeling great about my workout (like I could take on any attacker, any time) Kyle and I decided if I was ever to be attacked my best form of action would be a swift kick between the legs and make a run for it. Not that I’m ever likely to be attacked, but one should always be prepared – Unagi – ha! Well, I didn’t mean to get on a self defense tangent because this was kempo not self defense. It was a very fun DVD – cardio, legs, arms, and core – everything working at once! My kind of work out.

We’re about to start week 2 and we’re still going strong! I made it through the weekend while still maintaining my diet – even when we ate out. We even ate at Ruby Tequilas and I didn’t touch a single chip! Go me!
So I week down, about 12 to go
Bring it on!
