Major accomplishments this week!

Day... IDK?

I stopped counting after 3 days, lol. 

But this week has been an amazing week for me in regards to the gym!

Last week I made it to the gym twice. It had been almost 3 weeks from the last time I had been. 

As of today, March 5th, I've made it to the gym 4 days in a row. 

And I'm damn proud of myself for that!

Adding to that is the fact that I've been able to embrace the elliptical,  and that's no small feat either.  

Today, the elliptical machine recorded that I did 17.43 minutes, and went 1.08 miles. 

The screenshot says it all. 🔥

I actually woke up late this morning. 

Rather, I had a difficult time getting up this morning. No lie.

That meant I got to the gym late, like almost 6am late. Ideally I'd be there by 5:20 am. I didn't so I spent less time. 
My typical treadmill time is 30 min. 18 is better than zero though! ;) 

Although Fitbit only recorded 16 min? That's strange. 

Overall, I've managed to hit 11,000 steps or more every day this week. We'll see what tomorrow brings, as I'm nursing a migraine, so going to bed early!

TWO NSV's today!!!

NSV's are OUT OF THIS WORLD!!!

I mean, loosing weight and inches is an amazing feeling, but non scale victories, aka NSV's, are the best ever.

So, NSV #1:
This morning I made it into the gym about 10 minutes earlier than I did yesterday.

I went straight to the elliptical.

Last time I *tried* I lasted a whole 6 minutes.

OUCH

I couldn't breathe...

I couldn't walk steadily afterwards...

And that was ONLY 6 minutes.

TODAY however...

I MANAGED almost 13 MINUTES!!!

Ok, so my FitBit recorded 14, but I'll take it.


NSV #2:
I've been averaging 21-23 minutes on the treadmill to get one mile of walking done.

Today, I managed to hit one mile in UNDER 20 MINUTES!!!

That's walking a 3.2 speed at a 3.0 incline!




Overall, today was an amazing day. Not only did I manage to last longer on the elliptical AND walk a mile on the treadmill in under 20 minutes, but I also SURPASSED my daily step goal of 9,500 by 1,973 steps. ;)

I need to go to bed now so I can wake up and do it all again tomorrow! ;)  And tomorrow I'm hoping to complete the circles on each of those 4 bottom areas. We'll see if I can!
