Day 06 Chuck the Chunk

Another day of Chuck the Chunk… Well, I worked out hard this am, and went for a 2-hour mountain hike in the afternoon. I only have hurting-pain in my knees, legs, and back. The rest of me feels like a rockstar. I came in under my calorie count today, by about 210. (Maybe a late night 1/4 cup of dried …

Day 05 Chuck the Chunk

Just a quick check in–for Chuck the Chunk–as I’m getting ready to head out of town for a few days.

I started Day 2 with two sets of 50, and …

Well, I am pretty sure I lost 1/32  of a pound during my workout today, which means  CHAMPIONSHIP! It’s another day in the Chuck the Chunk challenge! Today, just my back, legs and arms hurt–as opposed to yesterday, when everything but my hair hurt. I also included some 2.5-year-old boy up/downs  (pick-him-up, set-him-down, up-the-stairs to get T-Rex, and down-the-stairs–as he forgot …

Day 02 Chuck the Chunk

Well I made it out… Day 2 of Chuck the Chunk! Sort of, as I am very sore in places I wasn’t aware were muscles. On a good note, straws are my friend, as arms are not wanting to bend without reminding me that I am old, fat and extremely out of shape. The workout went pretty well. I was …

Stop, you’re growing too fast

“O sweet, delusive Noon, Which the morning climbs to find, O moment sped too soon, And morning left behind.” – Helen Hunt Jackson Where has the time gone?
