Recovery Week

We made it through the first half of the Insanity Challenge better than I thought we would, ok better than I thought I would. Shhh. The Recovery Week workout is still bringing a sweat but definitely nothing compared to the usual routines, which, I think are about to get the intensity pumped up on next week....

I thought we'd both been watching our calories, "refueling" properly, and working hard....but I think I gained a few pounds or am the same as when I began. What the heck is that about?! Guessing I'm gaining some muscle - probably upper body - where I was lacking before? I don't know but it was not a good start to my day when I stepped on the scale. Granted I don't NEED to lose any weight but I do have a goal in mind. I know I'm probably stronger and we're both getting in better shape but you know us ladies....we always want more. Never satisfied. I'm not noticing any major changes but we'll see in the end. Perhaps gradual....

Renewed sense of dedication. Time for a healthy dinner but there will not be smoothies in this house as I was deeply hurt and offended when my husband would not drink the smoothie that I made last night. He has been the only smoothie maker since we made our thrilling blender purchase from BBB. The story involves berry stains on sweatshirts and a bent blade on the blender, both of which I maintain were not my fault!
