A little more fabric used this week but still a long way to go to reach my goal for the year. I am getting close to a couple of finishes so borders and backings will get the total going up.
Fabric used 3/4 metre
Fabric used to date 17 3/4 metres
Goal for 2010 Use 100 metres.
Tuesday morning in the gym for a weights session and I finally felt like I was getting through my slump.
Wednesday lunchtime was a session with Dave. He called it cardio weights. I called it hell. My heart rate was certainly pumping by the end.
Thursday and a new summer top for me. I tried it on in one size and it was too big for me! Down a size and I could probably have gone down another but I like loose tops in summer. What this showed me was despite the small weight loss so far my body shape is definitely changing.
Thursday afternoon and 35 minutes on the treadmill for 3.21kms. My toe is still causing me grief but I just have to push through the pain.
Friday afternoon after the wedding I hit the treadmill again.One of those days when it felt like I was about to die even though I wasn't doing anything out of the norm. 2.69 kms in 30 minutes.
Saturday morning was treadmill again and went alright. 2.85kms in 30 minutes.
Sunday morning I did the cardio weights session again. Lets just say I sweated a lot!
Monday night and 35 minutes on the treadmill for 3.35kms. I finally feel like I'm getting my mojo back.

How wonderful to be losing clothing sizes. Congratulations! I know it's really difficult.
Good reminder not to be so critical of oneself.
Good for you keeping up with the exercise!!
One of my biggest quilt life questions is why are we all so super critical of our work. I think that's why there are supposedly no "quilt police". We do a bang up job all by ourselves.
Keep up the great exercise work! And cut yourself some slack on your quilt blocks... It's supposed to be fun!
Lovely top Brenda - and its excellent its a smaller size.
Yes, both hexagons do look fine. I'm sure that they will look great in a quilt. I don't know why we are so critical on ourselves. Congrats on the weight loss.
Both blocks look great to me!
You truly are an inspiration . . . I cannot believe that your toe is still giving you grief - it's almost been 2 months, are they sure you didn't crush something? Love the hex's and did I read correctly that they're 1.5 inches? WOW!
