Officially a Les Mills Snob

Well, it's happened. I am officially a snob. A Les  Mills snob, that is. I went to class tonight, first Turbo Kick Boxing, then Body Pump. I barely broke a sweat in TKB. It just is  NOT Body Combat. I went through the entire class knowing I was only there to get some cardio in, but it wasn't really worth it. I need to find something else to do for cardio but I love classes. Getting on a treadmill or elliptical just doesn't work for me either. I want to be running but with it getting dark early, I am not willing to run alone in the dark. So I need to think about this.

On the bright side, I am increasing my weights overall for each track and am noticing a difference. Today for squats I lifted 66 pounds!!! My heaviest ever. At least that's what I think I did since the weights are not in pounds. I did 2 large and 1 medium on each side. I almost thought I would not be able to get it back off my neck when I was done but I was able to squat with it. Yippee!!

I was told not to post this on FB so I am putting it here.......tonight we are watching the finale of the Biggest Loser and as the women were weighing in and not bringing huge numbers or looking real fit, Alexander says to me "Mom, you make those women look BAD!" That brought me to tears and I had to get up and hug him, which of course he complained about. I love my son!

Thanks to PH, IT, RVB, SG and AK for your responses to my blog last night. I haven't had time to email you all back but your support means the world to me and really did make me feel better about the whole situation. Love you all!
