Okay, I'm starting a journal because I need to be accountable to me for a while. I'm the worst when I'm sick about skipping exercise and eating whatever crap the DH and kids fix. While I'm getting over this mess of a bacteria, I can't do that. I won't do that! So here is my journal where I have to post my daily calorie breakdown and exercise so I know that it is out there for others to read and I can't just lie to myself by not tracking.

Okay, I had a terrible week of tracking. I did log some thoughts on the videos I did though, so I'm copying it here.
Monday 12/22
Felt like I had been hit by the flu again, so I decided to lay off for the day. I figured my long workout day Sunday entitled me to a rest day.
Tuesday 12/23
Feeling better, so maybe it wasn't the flu, just tired from such a long workout on Sunday. But then I went to take a friend a present and slipped and fell on my knee. It swelled up like a basketball, so I braced it and started using crutches since I couldn't walk on it at all. Skipped the workout because I was on painkillers.
Wednesday 12/24
Still babying my knee so no workout. I did switch from the brace to my athletic tape though because the brace put too much pressure on the patella tendon, which is what I injured. Tape is much better, still offers support but not so much that I'm not using it some too.
Thursday 12/25
Wasn't going to skip my Christmas workout, so I did it all seated in a chair. I couldn't do the kicks or dance moves, but I worked the upper body as hard as possible by exhaggerating the arm movements. I didn't wear my HRM to time any of them though, oops.
Shake (Something Hot About Kids Energy)--This is a kids workout that I did with my DD. She did the whole thing while I just did the arm movements. It is basic aerobics and arms, but great for doing with kids. DD loved it and she is 14, but it would be okay for kids as young as 4-5 I think.
Kickbox Underground--Yeah, I just needed the extra motivation of G today! LOL I couldn't do the kicking, but man I punched the heck out of the air. Something about a hot guy that really motivates me to push myself harder with the video. This is definitely my favorite kickboxing workout.
30 Day Drum Workout--Okay, so this isn't really marketed as an exercise video, but it works the hands and arms in ways no exercise video can. I'm still not a drummer, but it was fun.
Friday 12/26
Winsor Pilates Ab Sculpting--20 minutes; This is one of the original infomercial set. I remember when I first got these I couldn't do a whole one. Wow, I'm amazed at how much stronger I am now! Anyway, this was fun to do while laying in bed. If you've never done pilates in bed, try it! It makes it much harder!
Crunch Fat Burning Pilates--40 minutes; This is a strange mix because it is marketed as a pilates workout, but the first 25 minutes are a light cardio routine. I wasn't up to the dancy stuff, so I sat and did the arm movements, then enjoyed the 15 minutes of mat pilates at the end. Not bad, but not really strenuous either.
Sharon Mann--Bootcamp/Pilates--21 minutes; Sharon Mann is Dr. Jekell and Mr. Hyde! I love her yoga, pilates, and tai chi stuff because she is a great instructor and very relaxing. But give that girl bootcamp or a stability ball or standard aerobics and she goes insane. She's up and down and in a million directions. Luckily, she does have a couple of modifiers so you can do it as low impact if you want, but she is high impact all the way. I did the arms and then the pilates at the end.
Sharon Mann--Hi/Lo/Pilates--21 minutes; What Lo? Sharon is back to her hyper self. Again, did the arms and the pilates at the end.
Saturday 12/27
Caribbean Pilates--3 episodes--63 minutes; These are some I recorded from FitTV. Again with Jen. Not bad, but not Shelley.
Worlds Greatest Spas--Westglow Spa in North Carolina--16 minutes; This is something that I recorded when I lived in North Carolina to give DH a hint for a gift. LOL It isn't a workout, but I loved watching it again. I'm planning a trip in March to visit friends in North Carolina so maybe I need to leave this laying out for DH to see it before we go?
