Day 1 {02-17}: Unfortunately, I missed out on the first day! Boo for being tired and lazy! I guess I'll have to make it a 41 day challenge!
Day 2 {02-18}: Walked on treadmill at 3.5 mph for 21:53 minutes for a total of 1.25 miles. Bare-minimum, but got it done at 10:00 p.m.! read more about it here .
Day 3 {02-19}: Walked on treadmill at 3.6-3.7 mph for 20:51 for 1.25 miles.
Day 4 {02-20}:Walked on treadmill at 3.5-3.6 mph for 20:51 for 1.25 miles. New plan for tomorrow!
Day 5 {02-21}: Started the Making the Cut program. Day 1 circuit training approx. 50 minutes. Kicked my bootie!
Day 6 {02-22}: Day 2 of MTC Circuits. Approx. 50 minutes. Not as hard, but I'm very sore today. Not sure if I'll be able to walk by this evening!
Day 7 {02-23}: Extremely sore today! Dinner out with family, so a late night walk on the treadmill. 20 minutes at 3.0 mph {I am seriously sore people!} 1 mile.

Day 8 {02-24}: Day 4 of MTC Circuits. Approx. 50 minutes. Getting better. Not as sore!
Day 9 {02-25}: Day 5 of MTC Circuits. Approx. 45 minutes. I really focused today on only resting the 30 seconds Jillian recommends between circuits. I think I'm starting to see results! Oh, but I have official crowned lunges as the bane of my existence! I know they are doing great things, but man I hate them!
Day 10 {02-26}: Went for a walk with the hubby. A little chilly, but great to get some fresh air. 20 minutes. Approx 1 mile.
Day 11 {02-27}: This one is admittedly cheating, but we went to the Homes Show and walked around for a couple of hours. I am counting that for my 20 minutes of moving today, because I'm exhausted from it!
Day 12 {02-28}: Day 8 of MTC Circuits. Two sets of each circuit! {woo-hoo!} Seriously, the hardest workout I've had since high school sports. Bring on the changes!
Day 13 {03-01}: Okay, I totally flaked today. Went straight from work to a social function, and didn't get home til nearly 9:30. :( Couldn't bring myself to workout that late!
Day 14 {03-02}: Day 9 of MTC Circuits. {yes, I'm should really be on Day 10, but I had to shuffle some days around to accommodate some social events this week.} This workout was not my friend today. I was just having one of those really rough days where nothing was going how it should. Rough. 45 minutes of circuits. One rotation.
Day 15 {03-03}: No exercise today...went straight to watch the KU/K-State game. My blood was pumping though! Rock Chalk!
Day 16 {03-04}: I'm not even going to make excuses...it just didn't happen today.
Day 17 {03-05}: Nada...
Day 18 {03-06}: Zilch...this is bad
Day 19 {03-07}: Nothing.
Day 20 {03-08}: Back on the horse! Since I got off track last week, I'm starting back with Week 2 of Making the Cut. Day 8 Circuits. One Set. Approx. 45 minutes. I was able to do the push ups this week! I'm making progress! hooray!
Day 21 {03-09}: This was a great workout! I feel like I'm finally getting in the groove. Still being challenged, but I feel like it's controlled now! Also, I'm seeing major improvements in my strength and ability to perform some of these moves! Hooray! One set of Day 9 Circuits, approx. 45 minutes PLUS 15 minutes of running, for a total of 1.55 miles.
Day 22 {03-10}: Walked one mile over lunch. I should have worn some better shoes , but it was good to get out in the fresh air! After work I did one set of Day 11 circuits, approx. 45 minutes. Still amazed at the progress of my strength!
Day 23 {03-11}: Day 12 circuits.
Day 24 {03-12}: Rest.
Day 25 {03-13}: Rest.
Day 26 {03-14}: Day 15 Circuit. 1x
Day 27 {03-15}: Day 16 Circuit. 2x. I harnessed getting mad and really working it hard! I'm tired of not liking my body, and am determined to get to where I want to be. My new mantra: "Embrace the pain of change." --Dave Ramsey . It works for finances and workouts!
Day 28 {03-16}: Rest
Day 29 {03-17}: Day 18 Circuit. 1x and 1.4 mile run. It was beautiful outside, and I feel strongly that cardio is what's missing from my routine!
Day 30 {03-18}: Day 19 Circuit. 1x plus 2.5 miles {1.4 run, 1.1 walk} Another beautiful day outside!
