A Rocky Start...

Well....some of the best intentions...um....never come to fruition.  I had intended to start back on the elliptical the first day of school (this past Monday), but since it was my birthday, I decided to enjoy one last day of "being bad" because..it was MY birthday afterall.  On Tuesday morning, I got up early and took my son to school.  Had to get some coffee in me, so I read while I enjoyed my hot cup o' joe.  I DID make it to the elliptical and got my pedal on for about 50 minutes. Stupid timer reset on me about 32 minutes in, so my real time and calories burned are approximate, but I DID IT!

Riding on that high...and the jelly legs I was recovering from, I decided to go on elliptical vacay again.....and again....and again! Yes, I had been very busy during the week, but I could have made time....I should have made time. I will be back in the swing of things this Monday, as school will be in full swing and my birthday excuse will be long gone.  Maybe to jump start things, I'll do the cleanse for a couple of days to help rid myself of those few extra pounds that started creeping back several weeks ago.
