LOL!! Not much to report here....

Yesterday was an all day red neck workout! I pulled about 7 large bushes (dead) from garden beds and raked and weeded and cut lawn and did another burn. Nothing quite like these sorts of days. The pulling of the bushes whipped my ass as good as any gym workout I have down. I also emptied the big water troughs that the horses use. I had to do a deadlift type lift to tip it. I got into my stance, took several deep breaths and then grunted and groaned as I strained against the heavy water. It was so cool when it finally started to lift and the water started to pour out. I felt like I had just PR'd.

Tonight I rushed home from work and took the Schnauzer on another 1 hour long run. He is totally cashed out beside me right now. I just got back. Tonight I used my HR monitor and kept my HR at 135-145. It took me nearly 10 more minutes to run the loop. Sherman likes the new pace.

This afternoon for my break at work I took a one hour walk. I walked past the place where the bees where but they were no longer there. Perhaps it was the case that a queen was out that day too? I looked for carnage but didn't see any so I don't believe they were killed. The past 2 weeks have been "bald eagle" weeks for me. The first one flew over me on my run last week and yesterday as I was working in the yard, a young one flew overhead. He was so close I could hear his wings flap. He looked hard and long at Sherman before settling in a nearby tree. I put poor Sherman in the house.

Today the scale did not move at all. I am stalled... I keep you guys posted on this not because it bothers me so much as for the record. This so that in 6 weeks when I am trending way downward and getting closer to my goal, we can all look back and say, "Hey look." "Karla did not lose any weight or BF for days or weeks on end either" And then it will be just one more confirmation that weight and bf are lost to those who stay the course and not like we expect or want.

Tomorrow I see the trainer again. He was in NY last week so I have been on my own. It will be interesting to see what he has in store for me.

My that was wordy... I guess I did have something to report...
