Workout: Rest Day

I was so stinking tired tonight after work that I was in bed by 9. We're calling this a rest day. It probably didn't help my energy that I had 5 points worth of chocolate at work to celebrate the end of 'no sweets' week. I ended up over 16 points today. Still within my weekly points allowance, but more than I wanted to spend.

I have decided only to weigh myself monthly instead of weekly. I figure seeing a (relatively) big drop in weight will be more motivating than seeing it creep down. But I went swimming today and I was hoping my swimshorts (which have been tight tight tight lately) would be noticeably looser- and they were- slightly. Well, that is better than tighter.

Planet Fitness is going in about a mile and a half from my house. My current gym is about 5 miles away (and really out of my way). My current gym also closes at 10, so on nights I go I really have to hustle in order to get there, get changed and have a good hour+ to exercise. And all this will be moot in Nov-Dec when my store is open later! So even though I like my gym (it is clean and the people are friendly) and I am getting a ghetto-vibe from Planet Fitness I decided to switch. It opens this Friday.

At least they have finally straighten the light post in the parking lot that was at a 45 degree angle after someone ran into it.
