The bike is great to keep me moving while I work.. but I need a better cardio low impact routine. Walking is ok, but due to my bad leg it is actually more hurtful than beneficial as a sole cardio routine. I have a Pilates DVD, but really I would like to start going to class. I love Pilates classes vs at home. Once I perfect my moves I will start going back to the Y. I recently bought the Beachbody Tai Cheng series, which I plan to start the 90 day challenge in a week or so. But again need good cardio.. I've always preferred the GYM, so I guess it's time to get back to the Y and get on the elliptical. I need to reach out to my old trainer to see if she would be willing to work with me maybe 2x a month for right now. Sounds like a plan.. :)

Sat Feb 15 - Day 4 post Reset
Demon day - lost another few ounces today.. grand total lost since Dec 1 ... 45.6 lbs.. YEA BABEEE!! 11 pounds to my first BIG goal.. Not far now... Today I went and got my first mammogram. TMI ALERT - but that is how I roll :) - Due to the size of my breasts, she took 3 pics a piece flat, then 2 a piece at a 45 degree angle. It wasn't bad, but just uncomfortable standing still so she could get the breast muscle. They will send me the results, or I'll get a call from my Dr to have a consultation.. Not worried as there is no breast cancer in the immediate family. The genes passed on to me are - the Fat, Thyroid and probably Heart gene defects.. Thanks Mom and Dad!! Heee.. :)
Walked up to Fresh Market again today to get dinner.. Sea Bass and Scallops, I also decided that I wanted to get some goat cheese and a small wedge of herb brie. Didn't have it today, but when I am ready I wanted to have some on hand.
PSYCHED -- the Kombucha SCOBY kit and Kefir grains arrived.. Brewed up 2 batches of Kombucha Tea (KT) and 1 batch on Kefir. The KT won't be ready for min 7 days, but the Kefir may only take 24-48 hrs. I can't wait to have my own pro-biotics growing vs spending a fortune on either the bottled or pills. Here's to clean eating and drinking without breaking the bank!!
