Non Scale Victories This Week

During last night's LIIFT 4 Shoulders workout, I saw an improvement over last weeks shoulder presses.  I was unable to do the 2nd and 3rd sets last week overhead after about 3-4 presses.  My left shoulder would literally fall like I'd lost all muscle control with 10 lb weights.  Yesterday I used the same 10 lbs and it wasn't until the 7th rep on the second set that I started to feel bad fatigue but pushed through.  On the third set my shoulders were shot but I was still able to push overhead even if slower.  I pushed to fatigue but didn't have that dangerous muscle drop I had before. The zinnias I grew from seed are mostly in full bloom and I took some pics before cutting some to put in a little vase.

  2. Another week of awesome articles! I'm right there with the hair too - it was coming out in clumps when I was on Jenny Craig. I was so panicked, but now things are ok and it's pretty thick again. But it is very scary to lose so much hair. Good luck to the Mr on his test!! Have a great weekend - it's supposed to be 50 degrees here so we're happy!

  3. Definitely sending good vibes for the Mr. on his test although since he's been studying for weeks and otherwise seems quite competent, I'm not sure he needs them ;)

    Have a good weekend! I'm just trying not to slip further these days although I signed up for a step challenge at work that I'm hoping keeps my butt moving better on the weekend. It's a lot easier to get steps in when you are circling the floor of an office building as opposed to my home kitchen!!
