What a great way to spend a Friday night! The gym, In-Shape: Victorville North, that I have been going to since Oct, finally fully opened today with all it's amazing amenities. I loved doing laps on the 2nd level walking/running track and then had a blast playing racquetball. It was my first time in about 25 years but it's like riding a bike...you never forget....The great thing is my fitness level is way better in my 50's than it was in my 30's. And oh did I love swimming laps in the Olympic-sized pool.
And what really was the best of all was soaking in the hot tub and doing stretching exercises. I've worked out really hard the past 5 days doing things way of my comfort zone so a little fun was in order tonight. And oh how festive...I thought the place would be empty on a Friday night, but I swear half the Victor Valley was there.
Already down almost 3 lbs since Monday but going to take my time releasing the rest of the weight I gained during my numerous vacations this summer. Can't afford to lose any more muscle. My personal trainer wants me to limit my cardio (treadmill, walking) to no more than an hour a day. I am definitely going to give it my best to embrace other activities.
I am excited to be starting new Diet Bets again next week and also be hosting another game. I entered and successfully won 45 Diet Bets last year...I wonder how many I will do this year.
The new round of It's No Sin 2 Be Thin - Aug/Sept starts on Aug. 12. Weigh ins are Aug. 10 and 11.
