My Personal Best Today.....

Just back from the gym and I am so proud of myself.  No trainer today, just me on my own.  I decided to hop on the treadmill, which I hate and stay there for 30 minutes.  I ended up really getting into it and did the whole 30 minutes and just over 2 miles.  A personal best for me.  For each song I did something different - I either walked at an incline of 12 and a speed of 3.4 or I ran at an incline of 1.5 and a speed alternating between 5.7 and 6.3 depending on the song.  A great workout because my heart rate was all over the place.  I have my playlist set and its always the same songs and I have to have those songs or I can't do it.  My songs are:
Numb - JayZ/Linkin Park
Uprising - Muse
Wataya Want from Me - Adam Lambert
Just like Paradise - David Lee Roth
Welcome to the Black Parade - My Chemical Romance
Lose Yourself - Eminem
Papi - Jennifer Lopez
Starships - Nicki Minaj
Its Time - Imagine Dragons
Lots more but you get the idea.

So I'm sitting here freshly showered and still sweating - ewwww...takes a while for my core temp to go down.  Todays breakfast was my usual morning shake.  Lunch is going to be my leftover chicken noodle soup with a few whole wheat crackers and swiss cheese, not sure about snack yet but likely an apple and nuts as I take the kids to swimming lessons and tonight Tom isn't home for supper so I will be having my salad plate with chicken and egg whites.

I am doing a weigh in with Rita tomorrow but I can't imagine I will be at my goal after the weekend in Vegas - too much alcohol.

I'm on my computer for the day booking travel and organizing.  Picking up the kids by 415p and then to swimming lessons.
