September 2009 Run Down

It's hard to believe that October is already here!! Just around the corner is Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and OH MY 2010!!! HOLY COW where did this year go??? This got me to thinking about the last month - how its just flown by and how I did with my goals? 

So how did September go for me?

RESULTS:
Total Pounds Lost = 4.....
I'm pretty stoked about this. Everyone keeps telling me how the last 10-15 are going to be really hard to lose and probably take the longest so I'll take it!

Total Calories Burned = 9,767......
My goal was to burn 15,000 so I fell short, but considering I took a 10 day hiatus from the gym due to a nasty cold I feel pretty good about how many calories I ended up burning.  My goal was to work out 22 days out of 30, even though I only made it 14 days to the gym that still gives me a pretty good average of 700 calories burned per work out woo hoo!.

Total Calories Consumed = 45,739..... My daily goal range is 1200-1550 calories.  I'm actually pretty surprised I stayed with in my monthly goal of 36,000-46,500 calories with the weekend splurges, but I'm still happy I was able to stay with in the goal over all.  If you average it out my daily calories consumed was 1525 (on my high end but still with in my goal)!
September Highlights:  
I purchased my first ever pair of size 4 Jeans

































For the first time since I was a child I made it to the top of Squaw Peak

































I shifted my focus from cardio to serious strength training starting photos





















I went to my first NFL game & Tail Gating Experience

































We added another furry member to the family - Onyx the Guinea Pig

I'm ecstatic to report both boys are doing fabulous in school, working hard for those A's!!!
