Finally slowed down enough to have my daughter walk me through blogging. Yes, I am technologically challenged! Missed my first week of the program as I was at girl's camp. I guess the walking up hills all day and the fact that we had a mega-healthy cook (quinoa and kidney bean taco salad) worked out ok because I ended up losing a couple of pounds. Have met with my trainer, John, a few times. Monday's workout was awesome! Tuesday I felt every muscle I worked and today I'm ready to meet with him again tomorrow. I've actually been able to make it to the wellness center for a 1/2 hr workout before my 12 hr shift starts at 6 for a few days now. Didn't lose any weight last week, but I feel so much better! Had salad and low carb foods for breakfast and lunch so I could have birthday cake for my birthday tonight! It was a small piece, but I was able to stay within my limits!
