First Day

Sheesh! Lame excuse for not exercizing....It used to go the other way 'round - you were too busy cavorting around to get your assignments done!

Very cool chicken pic, by the way.

Today started badly, aches and pains, much groaning on the long way downstairs for my first cuppa, but I resolved to do something good for myself in spite of it all. (I don't want to get called names by a fellow blogger). So, after an hour with a Pilates DVD I actually felt great! Was it the Pilates, the stretching I did do, the stretching I didn't do, the "vitamin I" I took with my other vitamins first thing, or a combination of all of the above?

And I still feel well, long after the vit. i should have worn off, so...draw your own conclusions.

Since I am also trying to loose weight, I will include my calorie count for the day: 809 plus dinner which will be homemade turkey soup. Not so easy to quantify, but likely to be in the neighborhood of 250 Kcal.

Didn't do anything good for ME today, so I will be a critic of your day instead...

Actually, I know nothing about Pilates. Maybe you have some resources for me? Good to read that your day started with aches and pains, instead of ended with them!

Sounds like between the 'profen and Pilates, you struck a good combo.

I hate to flog this dead horse, but my quadriceps are still killing me today. I dosed on my own vitamin I this morning, even did a couple stretches, but taking some stairs on campus today still made me feel as I my thighs had lost a golf club fight.

I WILL get to the gym tomorrow!

Oh yeah, and what is "Kcal?"
