I spent much of today getting my two photography blogs up and running, with tags and keywords and content and photos and links and OMG. I was so drained by 4pm that I could barely keep my eyes open. Managed to cook Charlie some dinner, chat with the BFF for a few minutes, make plans for the weekend and then had to head out to my 8:15pm hair appointment.
As soon as I got there, I was graced with 5 minutes of free time before she was ready to get started. BAM! 25 push-ups. She finally finished wrapping up with her previous client, started my foils, and then about 3/4 of the way through, she had to leave and go mix another small batch of color. BAM! 25 push-ups.
She finished the foil and then headed out to make a few phone calls while my "highlights" processed. BAM! 25 push-ups. She came back in a few minutes later to check the color. "Two more minutes," she says. Guess what... BAM! You guessed it... 25 more push-ups.
Now, if my calculations are correct, that would be a total of 100 push-ups.
BAM! (Or as my 7yr old would say: "IN YO' FACE")
The only problem is, because I was so preoccupied with getting my push-ups in, my stylist and I had some sort of miscommunication and now I'm a brunette. Oh well. I'm down another pound. Still just a total of 7 because of my shenanigans last weekend.
7 lbs in 60 days, not dieting, just eating smart proportions 85% of the time, and eating chocolate cake and ice cream the other 15%. WINNING!!!

Today I vow to take back the 20 minutes a day that I need to keep my sanity and waistline in check.
that IS winning!!!! good job for living right 85% of the time :)
ReplyDeleteThis one was a great post, we truly can find anywhere to get it done... just small things we can do. I started my Day 1 and this is my accountability. Nothing fancy but 20 min on treadmill at brisk pace and bicep/tricep curls rotating for 3 sets.
ReplyDeleteI am also needing to cut out white carbs, Dr's orders. Plus if I am starting new my last cigarette was just over 24 hrs ago. Thanks for finding me a way to be accountable. ;)
Love it, Patti!!! Don't set your standards too high in the beginning, and don't get down on yourself if you miss a day or two. I tried "planning" my "Days of Rest" but I've found that I use those for the days when I just can't make it happen!
