Day 4 - Doing better

I was sad this morning, but I have done really well with my diet & exercise today, so I feel better. I just hope I can see some results on the scale tomorrow! Even if it is just a pound or two!

I went to the gym this morning. Arrived about 7:15am. I went upstairs to the cinema to watch (and workout!) what I thought was going to be the movie "Red", but it turned out not to be. The name of the movie that I watched was called "Armored". I only saw 30 minutes of it, but I am not sure that it will be one that I will rent. I was disappointed that "Red" was not playing.

Anyway.... here are my workout totals for today's gym visit.

Treadmill - I walked for 15 mins at level 3 on an incline of 2.0, then I bumped it up to 2.5. I burned 78 calories and walked for .73 miles. My heart rate was 114, although.... I am not sure that this was right.
Elliptical Machine - I worked out on level 2 for 10 mins. I burned 82 calories and my heart rate was 137, which was good.
Abdominal - I did 2 sets of 10 reps at 50 lbs, then lowered the weight to 45 and did one more set of 10. I lowered the weight to see if it would give me better results. I am not sure if I am using this weight machine the right way.
Back Extension - I did 1 set of 15 reps at 65 lbs, then bumped up the weight to 70 lbs for another set of 15, and then bumped it up again to 75 lbs for another set of 15. I could have kept going on this machine! I really like it! I am hoping that it is helping me with my abs, as well as my back.
Torso Rotation - I did 3 sets of 15, (each side --- right & left) starting at a weight of 50 and bumping to 55 and then 60.

At 8:05, I checked my pedometer. It read that I had walked 3245 steps, 2749 aerobic steps, burned 99 calories, and walked 1.22 miles. 

For breakfast, I had Kashi ceral with 2% milk (I prefer 1%, but this was the bottle that was open)
After the gym, I drank a Gatorade "Recovery" drink. I like these!
At snack time, at school, I ate a Fiber One bar.
After work, I ate another Fiber One bar.
When I got home from work, I had a container of Yoplait Light yogurt.

At 2:00pm, my pedometer read that I had walked 6743 steps, (aerobic stayed the same), burned 204 cals, and walked 2.55 miles.

Like I said before, David has jumped on the "get fit" bandwagon and asked me to go bike riding with him. So... I went. I was tired, but I am glad that I went, now.

When we got back, I checked my pedometer... which isn't supposed to count "bicyling" as "steps"... but, it looks like it did! My steps changed to 8516, (aeorbic stayed the same), burned 269 cals, and have walked 3.22 miles. (This is, of course, for the whole day)

I might just make it to 10,000 steps again!

Now, if those darn numbers on that scale will just go DOWN!!!!!!
