Lunges, lunges, lunges and yup, more lunges :)

I started out with 10 minutes on the treadmill and then did lunges with a stability ball instead of weights. Basically you move the ball back and forth as you make the lunge. After that I did Bosu push-ups, then Bosu shoulder presses (my balance is failing and I will work on that this week), then tricep lifts and then we did Bosu back lunges with a kick and Bosu jumps.

Then it was crawl out push-ups, fast lunges, and another tricep exercise. Of course after finishing all of that--we did it all again for a second time. Which was not so bad other than the lunges :(

Then it was on to abs. You would think with my big stomach I would be better at those, but I am not. I did the ones where you sit on your butt, lift your legs and throw a medicine ball between your hands. Then the second one had Erin throwing me the medicine ball while I was sitting on the stability ball, I then laid down and put the ball over my head before coming up and throwing it back to her. I did both of these twice before being done.

I have agreed to do the Weight Loss Challenge at the gym starting next Monday for 8 weeks. Not really looking forward to writing down all I eat, but I figure for 8 weeks I can do this :) The prize is $500 and who knows what will happen :)

Over and out for this week. Have a happy and safe holiday weekend :)
