Days 22 and 23

I didn't post yesterday, but I did sweat both yesterday and today. I have been good by following my dietary restrictions, but cramming way too much junk in my mouth that's not on the list, like cookies, and desserts, and lots of juice since I can't drink soda. I think it's all just so much more accessible this time of the year. I may need to add some more restrictions if I keep this up. I'll keep you posted.

Yesterday and today my workouts have consisted of upper body only, both days. Push-ups seem to be my exercise of choice when I don't have time for anything else. They make me feel so good, because they pump up my chest and my arms. A great all around exercise. Yesterday was bicep curls (40 pounds bar), and today was push-ups. I know I need to be doing more, though. I hope to workout in the mornings during this time off, and get back into squats, sit-ups, more runs, and more biceps.

A little Christmas verse for you:

"O Israel, put your hope in the Lord,
for with the Lord is unfailing love
and with him is full redemption.
He himself will redeem Israel
from all their sins."
Psalm 130:7-8
