Checking in
Jul. 26th, 2010 11:45 amHad a rest day yesterday, so didn't post a check in. But the rest day was filled with shopping, so I did a little walking, I suppose.
Today was much more productive. I did some balance ball crunches - about 40 or so. I also managed my hula dancing (Island Girl videos aka Kili will kill your arms and knees) which is a 40 minute or so set. I was going to tackle the other cardio hula (aka 'uwehe and kawelu hell) I have but I am still babying this shoulder injury. I am so impatient with it at times. How long should it take to heal?? Of course it would affect the arm I use the most...I am right handed.
I weighed in today - it seems I have lost two pounds. Huzzah! My current goal is to be under a BMI of 38 (235 lbs). And I am so close!! But we'll see how my weight fluctuates throughout the week...as it tends to do. I aim for small goals because that way, I am almost guaranteed to reach them whereas a large goal leaves me feeling a bit depressed if I don't reach it soon enough.
I have also noticed that I may need to find a tailor for my clothes when I am in Japan - all the articles of clothing I bought for the winter months might have to be taken in if I keep this up!
But today, I got nice and sweaty! Tomorrow I hope to incorporate both hula dances into my workout like I used to before the shoulder problem.
