I was going too often and was too exhausted to lift weights. I would go in the morning and then in the afternoon with my daughters. I took a couple days off and felt much better. Now I&#8217;m only go once on the days I take my daughters to the gym. My daughter&#8217;s schedule is making it harder for both of them to get to the gym but this is just temporary, end of the school year busyness. Hopefully they&#8217;ll be able to go more often in the coming weeks.<br \/>\nI gained another 4 pounds but lost it again the next day, so for the week I was at a zero for weight loss. I decided to cut out ice cream until I lose 10 pounds, let&#8217;s see if I can stick to it \ud83d\ude42 I think that may help. I also added walnuts to my oatmeal in the morning hoping to make my breakfast last a little longer in the morning. Yesterday it worked, today I was ready for lunch at 10:30 \ud83d\ude42<br \/>\nI&#8217;ve been able to get my heart rate up to the level of a twenty year old (high intensity cardio) on the treadmill and even to the level of a ten year old but had to slow down because I thought I would get a nose bleed. So, I&#8217;m pretty pleased with my cardio workout and plan to do it 6 days a week (taking Sunday off). Weight lifting isn&#8217;t going as well and I&#8217;ll have to work on that but I decided to concentrate on the cardio first and not worry about weightlifting until I get used to the left on intensity, though I&#8217;m pretty pleased with my ab exercises.<br \/>\nSo, how are you doing?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So, the exercise program hit a snag last week.
