I haven't been to the gym in awhile, but I did complete day 9 :-) so I'm going to count that as a win!

Did day 8 of 30DS...only 2 more and I have to decide if I'm going to move up to level 2....

4.3 miles in 60 min - not too bad. just need to get up around the 5/5.5 mile pace (and be able to keep going!)

Too bad cycle 9 started today - BOO! Celebrated that with lunch and TGI Friday's and a bloody mary (don't forget lots and lots of oreos)

Finished day 7 of 30 day shred! YAY! I even made it through the first set of each exercise before needing to rest. Still need to work on the arm stuff (press and lateral raise).

I'm feeling positive about it right now, so I'm thinking I may move to levle 2 after the 10th day on level 1. I was going to wait until level 1 was "easy", but I can stay at level2 longer if I need to.

Well , today there was a little happiness with the scale :-) The number was still higher than I liked, but it was closer to what I was at. I also did the Shred tonight and was happy that I only had to stop and rest my arms during a couple exercises! (YAY!)
Should have probably tried going to the gym though - oh well.

10DPO today and I broke my pledge of not testing early (BFN anyway), but I'm not sure I'm counting it since I used a dip strip that I got as a freebie. Maybe I'll be stronger next cycle.

Half way through level one! I finished day 5 today :-) but still need some work so I can complete all the reps of all the exercises. There are some that I think I could switch to 5 lb weights for, so I think I might try that next time. That is, of course, assuming I can find my 5 lb weights.

On another note, I think I've convinced myself that I had implantation spotting yesterday. How's that for not getting my hopes up this cycle? That combined with this being the only cycle so far that FF has given me solid crosshairs...and it is cycle 8 in 08/08? This has to be it, right?

Why do I do this to myself? I really need something that keeps me from obsessing in the 2ww.

Completed my day 4 of the Shred, but have to admit the last couple days I've been eating like crap! Made it through the first set of pushups (slowly), but still took a rest during the squat/arms and lunges (stationary and side ).
