Something is better then Nothing

Quick recap. No post yesterday as I was fighting a pesty head cold. Still lingering a bit, but I'm claiming complete healing. =)

 Busy...Busy....Busy....

Let's face it we are (or can be) pretty busy people. I know I am. I work every evening starting Sun - Thurs til 11pm. I'm exhausted sometimes but still have to maintain a healthy life, family, house, work, bills, social life.........Whew!!!

So we shall all agree that doing some form of Exercise, (not the sit up it takes to get out of bed) is better then saying we are too busy to work out at all.

While some experts say you should eat a good breakfast before working out I have found this doesn't work for me. It may work for some though so whatever you find works best..
My kids have to be on the bus by 7:40. When I get back home (when the weather is nice we walk down the block to catch the bus) I start my workout. My routine, while simple I suppose seems to be working (not in the sense of the celeb diets who lose like 30lbs in a month) but I have noticed subtle changes that I'm happy with.
I begin by doing sit ups followed by mostly several other strength exercises and stretches. The Plank is also a good one for your core muscles.
I have started adding my cardio I originally thought of doing cardio 3 times a week, Mon., Wed., Fri, however with my work schedule it fit better to do it on the days I go in later in the event I would pull something. 
So Weight Gain in the Challenge: For some there may be no change in weight this week or you may have seen a slight increase, despite working out and eating right. This is okay, because you are building Muscle Weight which weighs more then fat. Whew!!!

Changes: 
Have you noticed any changes over the past week and a half? 
Food:
Weight:
Energy:

I have noticed the changes and while again they are not huge, they are there so I will keep plodding on.
Oh I discovered that I actually like to dance on the treadmill. lol Well not jump about but I had a great song on today and I just couldn't help but dance along (being careful not to fall off of course) 
So I will be setting up my Treadmill Playlist later today. =)
