Zumba!

Today was the first day of the new session at our YMCA.  I decided to try a different class and signed up for Zumba (M&W nights) and Aqua Fit (Sat morning).  Zumba was great!  It was a lot of fun!  We had a wide range of ages (teen through retirees) and ability levels, but we were all moving the entire class (50 min). No one had to be carried out! hehe ;)  While I was getting ready for my shower, I decided to check my glucose (about 1.5-2 hrs postprandial).  I was surprised that it was 150, so I checked again after my shower and it was 154. Hmmm, liver dump?  I went ahead and ate my snack (Kashi bar) and headed home.  My legs are sore and I know I'm going to hurt in the morning.  My plan is to walk on the treadmill for a bit tomorrow morning and try to work any stiffness. 

An hour after my Kashi bar, I joined my family for ice cream, chocolate chip cookie, and a little Nutella on top.  *sigh*  Two hours later I'm at 160.  I need to make better choices with my snacks.  I need to remember the stash of nuts I have in the cabinet or the Jell-o Mousse Temptations that are leftover from my get-together last weekend.

Today's BEST:  Sore legs after a great workout!
