Britt and I both went to the gym this morning.. YAY US! We had to tag team since Elijah is home. Britt went first and when he got home, I went for my turn. We are doing the circuit training program at Powerhouse. The workout takes about 30 minutes. You do a machine, then do 30 seconds of cardio (stepping on the low step for us beginners!!). You do the cardio between each machine. It's an amazing program. They have pictures up all over the circuit training room of people who have done the program - it shows their before and after and has written on the picture how much weight they lost.. It's very inspirational. I will hurt tomorrow. My arms already feel wobbly! I didn't do the leg press because my ortho doc said that's not great for my knees. My PT had me do that, but on a low weight and with partially deflated rubber ball between my knees.. Other than that, I did everything else. My goal is to do the circuit training at least three times per week then do cardio (treadmill) for 30 minutes twice a week. We shall see. That is my goal to start out though. Britt and I will start going in the morning on Monday when Hannah is here to stay with Elijah. We ate well this morning and will eat sensibly for lunch. We are going to a crawfish boil this afternoon, so I don't know how good our eating will be there!!!
Prayers for today: health for my kids - not too much pain from my first work out in ages - and a restful weekend
