Since Valentine's Day fell on a Monday it didn't go over so well at our house. I'm not sure what happened, but everyone had a hard time yesterday. So, I decided to try again today, hoping that my efforts would warm the hearts of my family. We still had some bumps along the road, but in the end, we had a lovely day. I was thrilled to see the children's faces as they decorated and made valentines for each other.

After a yummy dinner of baked buffalo chicken and a large garden salad, my hubby and I decided to get in a workout together for our date night. We were both so tired, but figured we'd push to get it in before relaxing together.  Let me tell you, we both got smoked with that workout! Add these factors together:

No workout in over 2 weeks + First workout of Phase 2 in the 9 week challenge + a 28 minute workout with 53% of it working the lower body = 200 calories burned and my legs are already hurting!!

Note to self: You WILL have to start over building muscle if you let that much time lapse between workouts. DO NOT do that again!!
