EXERCISE: I rode my stationary bike, Sally 2.8 miles. I burned 163.2 kcal, riding for 11 minutes. I am focusing on maintaining a faster “resting” pace, 15 mph instead of 12 mph. This is helping me burn more calories over the course of the ride. Plus up-ing my speed during the sprints. DIET: Breakfast: A… Continue reading Ride, Sally, Ride

The Tattoo Incentive
EXERCISE: I rode my bike today for 10 minutes. I burned 147.8 kcal, and rode 2.5 miles. Then, because I had some time, I inflated all my Yamuna balls and used the black ball on my hamstrings. On the docket for this evening is picking out an Elevate Athens Yamuna routine with Michelle for tomorrow.… Continue reading The Tattoo Incentive
3 day streak!
EXERCISE: I rode my bike, Sally, again this morning. I just did 10 minutes, burning 145.2 kcal, and riding 2.5 miles. I didn’t roll out my hamstrings like I have it down to do, and which would benefit my plantar fascia. I need to work that in. Part of the issue is that I need… Continue reading 3 day streak!
Staying on track
EXERCISE: I rode Sally, my bike, before breakfast again today. I biked 2.7 miles, burning 157.3 kcal, in 12 minutes.

Summer Yin is taught by… Continue reading Staying on track
External to Internal
What do I need to change externally to change internally? I also feel more relaxed in the afternoons after I eat lunch. Plus I rise up earlier when my alarm goes off in order to ride Sally before breakfast. Eating healthier foods impacts how I feel within too, boosting my moods. So as I work… Continue reading External to Internal

Disappointed
WEIGH-IN: I did my second weigh-in today. I fully expected to loose another 3 pounds. To my dismay I have only lost 1.1 pounds this week. At least things are still moving in the right direction. Overall I have lost 4.2 pounds. Not enough to earn a reward from my friend–for that I have to… Continue reading Disappointed
Staying on the bike
EXERCISE: I got on the bike again before breakfast today. I burned 124.9 kcal, biked 2.1 miles, all in 10 minutes! The best part though was that I dreamt I was hanging out with Five Eight, then my phone played a favorite tune of theirs while I was biking! DIET: I’m going to keep the… Continue reading Staying on the bike
Back on the bike

Food is a habit, exercise not so much
I am realizing that food is a habit for me, a routine that I rarely skip. My body will let me know if I need to eat and I listen, more often than not. These days I’m eating 3 meals a day plus a snack. I know the snack is off diet but it helps… Continue reading Food is a habit, exercise not so much
