I'm not sure if I'm starting this right, but I am going to start tracking my workouts here. I was doing it in My Plan, but it doesn't give options for notes.

Here is MyPlan workout log so far:

Before I started logging my exercises, I wasn't doing low carb and I would get really hungry, so I basically ate what I wanted thinking since I was exercising, I would be fine. I definitely notice a difference when low carb and exercising. I have a lot more energy and don't get that hungry.

I've noticed that I have a drive now to want to exercise like every day. I've done low carb before in 2004 and lost about 40 pounds, but I didn't exercise except for a walk to the bus stop and climbing stairs to the parking garage.

I feel much more stronger now and clothes are fitting nicer. Weight isn't really moving that much, but I'm waiting for my whoosh!

weight lifting class is the Les Mills Body Pump routines.

Yoga really strengthens my core and legs and makes me more flexible

I think Pilates is getting too easy for me, and I need to try the more advanced moves.

Step is my favorite class and I wish they offered more classes besides 3 times a week. Oh, but I could do more, since I have my online workout videos. They have all my favorite workouts. It's just different working out alone.

I notice when I first started exercising, I had to eat something before (I chose a banana) or I wouldn't make it through class without resting. I'm not finding that anymore. Also, I don't get as sore as the first week I started. It was bad, I could barely move without being in pain. I guess that's what you get for not exercising for so long.

cheers
