Day 54 of 90

I'm sexy and I know it.

Today's Workout: Workout 8

haha I have that song stuck in my head... my kids like to play it and sing it, but I thought it could be appropriate as an inspiration.  We are all different, different shapes, heights, BODIES.  Each one beautiful.

My legs are like jelly today.  A combination of the workouts 7 and 8 as well as my jog of last night.  I still can't believe it... 3.6km without stopping.  What else does the future have in store?

I said goodbye to workout 8 today.  I enjoyed it because I pushed so hard with it.  I never used my 3's, only 5's and 7's.  So Phase 2 actually and for real comes to an end this week.  Tuesday is my last rest day of Phase 2 and Phase 3 begins Wednesday.

I was thinking for my next reward to purchase a good heart rate monitor.  I need to do some research.  I feel it is an invaluable tool for tracking my body's needs beyond online tools and estimations.  Any good suggestions for ones that seemed to be accurate and user-friendly?

I've felt very satisfied in terms of meals today.  I also got to sleep in a bit, thanks be to my husband.  He even took the baby downstairs when he started fussing, and entertained him with a wooden spoon and spatula while I slept a bit longer.

Campfired-Up Sloppy Joe on Whole Wheat Kaiser (410 cals)

Breakfast: Steel cut oatmeal with brown sugar and milk, coffee
AM Snack: Mixed Berry Protein Shake
Lunch: Campfired-Up Sloppy Joe on a whole wheat kaiser
PM Snack: Oatmeal Chocolate Chip muffin and nonfat latte
Dinner: French Beef Bourguignon (in slow-cooker) with linguini and french baguette

It seemed to be a great mix of proteins, flavours and carbs, very satisfying.

So tomorrow is my final day of Cardio 2.  I am a bit nervous about what Cardio 3 holds, and a bit nervous about the next workouts, since I found I still had to modify a bit for Phase 2.

Nighty night,
