I’m feeling much better after my downtime last week. Back to 100% and adding back in my daily runs or elliptical bursts. I usually try to do about 10 extra minutes. It definitely makes the back of my legs look better. They were starting to suffer.

Jer and I are having a dual birthday party on Saturday. The food will be fresh mex so I can definitely keep the calories under control there, but maybe not so much with the planned Red Velvet cupcakes and the cocktails mmm. I’m trying to balance it out by being light this week. Then next week is Thanksgiving. Ugh it really seems pointless this time of year. Be really good and then trash it with pie. Kill me now. It’s much easier to maintain during the holidays than try to lose anything. I should’ve started a few months sooner!

This whole thing would be much easier if Jer were in on it too. He’s just so busy on his own projects, he won’t use the treadmill or elliptical very much. I think its fun to double team, me use the elliptical, while he runs — usually while watching The Daily Show. Then I can smack his bum while he runs too. I think going to the gym is more appealing to him. I like the gym, but I HATE fighting for machines, or having a 20 minute limit. I also like to nap after work, and the gyms nearby close to early and are $$. A workout buddy would be nice.
