Another frigid week goes into the books. Despite feeling the need to hunker down and hibernate, I made it to most of my workouts. It wasn't easy, though. There were days when I really had to push myself to leave the house. Sunday was the hardest. I wasn't able to get to the gym. I had to hit the driveway instead. Eighty three minutes and eight hundred fifty nine calories later, I had it cleared. I definitely felt the effects of my snow shovel workout in Monday's Kickboxing Cardio workout. I didn't work the kinks out until midway through the class.
The diet went okay for the week, but it was a bit of a struggle. The cold had me craving mass quantities. I didn't go over my calorie goals, but I ate back more of my exercise calories than I'd planned. This week started out on the same note. Breakfast has been the hardest meal to control. I know that I'm consuming way too many carbs during breakfast. So, I know what I need to do, I just have to make myself do it.
Now, about those sleeves. I've been noticing that the sleeves on some of my dress and sports shirts seem shorter, stopping above my wrist. I know that my arms aren't growing. I've had these shirts for a while and they've been washed several times, so I don't think that they've shrunk. I think that my shoulders have gotten larger, which makes the sleeves sit higher. I have mixed feelings about this. One the one hand, I'm glad that the resistance training appears to be showing results. On the other hand, I'm a little annoyed that I'll need to buy more shirts!
Reps and steps!
