I spent nearly every free moment I had today cleaning in some form or another and I’m still not done. I just keep telling myself that it’s better than sitting on the couch like a lump.
I am exhausted and it is definitely time for bed. I feel bad because I know that my last couple of posts haven’t exactly been chocked full of riveting material, but I am just so busy and haven’t had time to let any deeper thoughts percolate in my head. I am hoping my schedule will open up after tomorrow so that I will have the opportunity to write something more interesting. But for now, I am simply going to continue checking in to the best of my ability.

Just checking in on the challenge. I weighed in at 177.8 lbs. this morning. I'm not sure I'll reach the goal I set for myself, but hopefully I'll be closer to it!
ReplyDeleteHey girl! The way I look at it, all that cleaning burned a ton of calories and you get a clean house as a bonus!
ReplyDeleteJust keep on keepin' on. You're staying with your program in the midst of a busy life. That's as good as it gets!
ReplyDeleteCleaning totally burns calories!!!
ReplyDeleteLike they said above, cleaning burns calories. Add some music and bust that bootie while you are at it :)
ReplyDeleteI agree with the "cleaning as exercise" brigade!
ReplyDeleteI think your post is perfectly interesting, just the way it is. :o)
Yes, cleaning is hard work! I should do more of that!!! :-) Sometimes our bods are telling us something so don't feel guilty & glad you just rested the mind!
ReplyDeleteLots of cleaning = lots of calories burned! Great job!!!!
ReplyDeleteYou always make me want to up my ab routine.
ReplyDeletegoing to fitness buddy and type in your weight and amount of time of doing your cleaning, I think you will be surprised how much you burn cleaning.
I agree...add a little dancing in while you clean! Great workout!
ReplyDeleteI actually was grooving away to some Christmas tunes for the first little while I was at it. :)
