Every moment of my day, I am either being a wise woman building my house or I am being a foolish woman, tearing it down with my own hands. There is no in between. My desire is to be wise. To build my house, my family...but far to often I see that my attitude, my decisions, my selfishness displays my folly. I do not want to tear my house down...and certainly not with my own hands. What a danger there is in foolishness. This blog is to give me a place to share my journey from foolishness into wisdom, from house destroyer into house builder.

Exercise...Week 2

I'm a little bummed out and discouraged.  I have worked really hard this past week. I've gone to the gym every day I could...and I've gained 2 lbs. Weird.  However, everyone kept saying today that this was normal.  It makes me want to quit...but, I won't.  However, now I am way behind in my goals.  Now, I have to loose 7 pounds by the end of the month! haha....that won't happen I don't think.  Maybe if I can just end up where I started...maybe that will be "good enough" for the Christmas season.

I did 2 spinning classes.  One I really liked, and the other I thought I liked...until I went to the "other" one.  I'll keep going.  I have to learn to "visualize" the ride.  Something that is really hard for me.  You basically "map out" the ride you want to go on and you pedal to the music and push yourself to finish. 

I've really been enjoying a circuit training group class.  This class includes "core" work along with rotating through the gym using different equipment, weights, balls and resistance.  I feel like I'm getting a good work out.  I've done a few other classes here and there as well as just spent one day in the gym running and lifting weights alone. 

Here's hoping I have better results Next week!
