This morning I burned approximately 750 calories at the gym. Woohoo! I completed the water aerobics class, but I left the Zumba class 20 minutes early. I went to the gym on an empty stomach so I stopped in the cafe to have breakfast. I had a smoothie before water aerobics, and I bought a protein bar for between classes. Well, I ate the protein bar before I went to Zumba and I don't think it agreed with me. My stomach was all sorts of swishy during class and there were a few times I had to pause and linger over my water to let my stomach settle back down. I was also developing a massive headache, which didn't help. I tried to stick it out but Zumba was getting too jumpy for me. So I used the time at the Member Services desk to finish adding Hubs to my account. Then I went to Caribou to pick up some real food (since I don't really have any at home) and coffee to help both my head and my stomach. Even though I left Zumba early, I am proud of myself for making it to the class in the first place. During water aerobics I just wanted to leave, but I kept thinking to myself that I HAD to go otherwise I would be disappointed with myself.
I also had a successful weigh in, down 1.2 pounds from October 20th. I am annoyed that I forgot to weigh myself last week to get an actual number of pounds lost in one week. But ... I guess down is down, right? So, woohoo for me again.
I did feel good about being at the gym on a Saturday morning and burning calories during a time I would usually be lying in bed or just lounging in my house. Maybe I'll add Saturdays to my routine too, but let's take it one at a time, shall we?
