140.8 this morning after THREE days stuck at exactly the same weight, 141.6, heh. I’m going to chug water like a hydroelectric plant today and try to get back down to my real weight by tomorrow morning. Workouts have been good, but I *need* to tighten up the food in meal 6. Maybe I should make the kitchen a No Entry zone at night?

Yesterday’s outdoor walk turned out to be my only outside time, but today I will be hitting the pavement again during lunch and maybe enjoying my meal outdoors as well.

I do sort of want to hit Target to take a look at those cute pink and black Igloo coolers that are on sale this week, though.

Workouts this morning were great–legs, shoulders, and abs with Ashlee, followed by TTfW Phase 4 Workout A and intervals on the stationary bike on my own. I’m going to avoid machine leg curls for a while, however, since my left leg twinged AGAIN today even at the lighter weights of 105 and 90 lbs.

I bumped up my BB front squats 30 lbs from 75 to 105 lbs. The Olympic bar and rack at the gym is WAY easier to use for that move than my Powerblock BB at home. Having mirrors around to check my form was helpful, too. I did wind up with some red marks from broken capillaries near the surface of my skin on my left shoulder, but they should fade in a day or two. This exercise is still a bit new and tricky for me. My right hand/wrist was really feeling the two days ago after the last round of front squats.

:ouch:

Check out these two cute (girly!) soft-sided Igloo coolers on sale at Target this week for $6.99! Proceeds from the sales will go towards breast cancer research programs, too. Methinks that I may have to motor over to the store during my lunch break for an upgrade to my red cooler.

And really, now that he is trying to eat better, Chris could really use an oversized, hand-me-down lunch bag, too.

:slappy:

Update: I picked up the $6.99 boxy one on the left during lunch. There were actually quite a few different styles available ranging in price from $3.59-$11.59. All of their Igloo soft-sided coolers were on sale, not just the pink ones.

(Prices do not necessarily line up with nearest cooler in this photo since I moved some down to fit in one frame. Mine is the one in the lower left.)
