At the Home Gym

At my home gym this morning I have done my elliptical, program 5, which was great. Then I used my dumb bells for about 45 minutes to do four sets of exercises. I am really hungry now. So I will go fix me some wonderful egg whites and a piece of whole grain toast - dry. Then I will have a piece of fruit. Or maybe some cauliflower. I think cauliflower.

Yesterday was a great day. My son came down from Houston and while he was sleeping early in the morning I discovered that there was a place in the poor excuse for a fence on my property line where there is brush and trees some cow or cows had gotten into my yard. My place is a large yard. No farm animals allowed! The ground is very wet because this winter we have had a lot of rain so this stray cow have make huge hoof prints all over my yard and in my garden area. I don't have anything planted in the garden yet. I was livid over the whole thing. But, my son, Joshua, took it real calmly and put up some fence over the place the cow was getting in with some wire fencing I had in my storage shed. Then he took down a temporary fence I had in the yard that needed taking down. So we had a nice bit of outside work yesterday. It is always motivating to have someone else to work with you on a outside project. When you live in the country there is always some challenge. I guess when you live in a house or don't live in a house there are some challenges. Sometimes I let the challenges get me down and it is nice to have someone to be clam and just solve the problem for you.

All together I have lost 22 pounds!!!! I am thrilled. I had a little down spot week before last and the beginning of last week during the week I hit it pretty hard with my exercise and watching my food intake and then by Thursday I could feel some changes taking place. I still havene't lost enough weight for people to say, "Hey, have you lost some weight?" I just can't wait for that to happen. I just feel so much better in my clothes that were tight before and I have so much more energy.

Gotta go. I am on Spring, ha, break this next week and have a little trip to take to Austin, Texas today. See you soon.
