Long Overdue Fitness Update

I haven't posted a fitness update since 2/28. Sadly, I don't remember what we did from 3/1-3/14 because we erased it off our whiteboard (yeah, we have a whiteboard on which we keep track of workouts & also dinners). But I'll try. We (well, I) sorta fell off the exercise wagon this month... It's always hard when you go somewhere/have visitors over weekends bc you end up losing your 2 good leisurely days of exercise. And then during the weekdays you end up catching up on stuff you didn't do over the weekend, and work out less.

BUT. All this exercise & the healthy eating are FINALLY starting to pay off! My pants are way looser, and on Friday I totally wore these gray pants I've never worn bc they've been too tight! Hooray for results!!

So without further adieu, this month's fitness update:
Week of 3/1-3/7: I'm pretty sure we ran outside at least twice, did Pilates once, and maybe went to the gym once and did arms or something. Probably worked out about 4 times.

Week of 3/8-3/14: This was the week when I got that really awful GI sickness. I was sick as a dawg. I didn't do any regimented workouts at all, but I wasn't sedentary--I walked to school 3 times, and that weekend, we went to DC and walked probably 4-5 miles a day. Eric was really good and ran outside like 4 times. I also didn't eat for like 5 days.

For the next 2 weeks, I walked to school every day (~3/wk) in addition to exercising. We also counted the zoo & the outlets as exercise bc seriously, it's a lot of walking!
Sun 3/15: Walked ~3 miles in DC
Tues 3/17: Ran 4mi, Arm workout #2
Wed 3/18: Ran 4mi, insane legs
Mon 3/24: Ran 4mi, Arm workout #1

Fri 3/27: went to the zoo!
Sat 3/28: Ran 4mi
Sun 3/29: 50min Pilates
