What I'm Reading This Week #13
Friday is finally here! Can I get a woot woot?! (Cheers to those who actually did it.) The week felt long to start but then before we knew it...blam! Friday. We had the countertop dude out to measure and template Tuesday. The lady who made the appointment said it would be 2-3 weeks after so I'm hoping for sooner than later so I can FINALLY reveal the bathroom to you guys! Kind of stinks though because we were told they would take the sink/faucet with them and that was a big fat no. We were looking forward to getting that big azz box out of the house. Soon enough I guess. You may have noticed a little zhuzh to the site (probably more for those on laptops) but I figured it was time and I think they retired my previous theme anyway. So it's a little minimalistic but there wasn't a ton to choose from on the free side so I took what I could get. Enjoy. 😄 I sat down and did a spreadsheet of my seeds, when they were...
Oh crap! I never updated my HRM with my age or my new weight. Son of a buttface. I'm screwed.
ReplyDeleteI don't have a HRM. Hubby got a wrist one, but it was wildly inaccurate (at least I hope it was or I am totally screwed). My mom is going to loan me hers to try out before I buy a new one but I haven't gotten it from her yet.
ReplyDeleteI have noticed though that as I get into better shape it gets harder and harder to reach my target zone (based on a pulse check). I don't know that age has anything to do with it though. Based on pulse check charts I've seen, I thought the target zone actually went down as you got older.
I hear you, another layer. The more fit I get the harder I have to work to get winded or "feel the burn".
ReplyDeleteI don't bother with the whole "zone heart rate" thing just because it's too technical for my personality (and I've read conflicting info on whether "the zone" is really that important--so I don't want to spend money on an HRM just to be annoyed by numbers and having to wear the damn thing).
I really want a hrm....
ReplyDeleteHowever I am worried what it might saw when I am shoving cookies down my throat.
The older I get and especially the more fit I get, the harder I have to work, so you are not alone.
ReplyDeleteSince I hit 40 this year, I'm struggling more than ever! It's like my body is in protest and the things that worked the past two years no longer do. Supposedly I'm supposed to cut 100 calories from my daily diet just because I'm 40--I'm at the minimum now as it is! As for workouts, I definitely have to work harder to get any results. Necessary, but very irritating.
ReplyDeletesigh, I totally have to work harder, which I still think is not fair - I should lose weight EASIER - I have more experience at it now

Hiya!! I guess I better not comment. I seem to get there pretty easy. But the calories don't seem to burn off. Maybe my body is screwed up!!
