♥ SMART Quest ♥ Thurs. Feb. 24, 2011

My SMART Quest for today is:  Try to stay focused.  I find myself craving chocolate for some reason.  Not sure why!  Gotta try to stay on track.  I am considering not counting my calories, and trying not to weigh myself, but I don't know if I can do it!

Went to bed late.  Had a hard time getting up. Slept well though!

Awoke: 5:00 am - 5 1/2  hours sleep!
Warm up: 5:25 am
Push ups x 8
Squats x 12
Spiderman Climbs x 10 total
Jumping Jacks x 20
Completed 2 rounds

My legs and core were really exhausted after this workout.  I would have liked to do a bit more when it was done, but I had to carpool so I ran out of time.
