24 Reloaded - Days 6-10

I have been really lax in blogging lately... it's not easy to fit into a busy schedule, especially when  you add the Olympics into the mix :)

but here is what i accomplished days 6-10.......

i have lost a few more pounds... decided i will not share my totals, or before/after pics until i am on day 25 ... i know.. the anticipation is torture :)

i went over 20 miles on my Elliptical... i have actually found that watching a show like "So you think you can dance" is a good one to elliptical to.. while they are dancing, i tend to go faster :)

i have started on a new project... removing old wood flooring to put down tile instead... but i swear, whoever it was that installed this flooring must have simply dumped an entire bucket of glue on the concrete slab and put the wood on top of that... i am having to use a WHOLE lot of elbow grease, a pry bar, a chisel and a hammer to get it up.... and even worse is there was so much glue, it's still wet and tacky.. so that will be a lot of fun to remove...
but the thing i am thankful for is that i am able to do it at all...
because of this challenge, and the energy these products give me, i am able to do somethign like this.

in the last 2 months i have demo'd and replaced my stairs to have them recarpeted... i have built a wall... yes, an entire wall.. insulation and all... in my garage to create a new storage room... i have begin building a new patio area in the back yard... so far it is just the gravel... but money is what is keeping me from completing it, not lack of energy (rock, sand and paving stones are a LOT more expendive than i budgeted for).. and now i am demo'ing my old wood flooring to replace it with tile... never would i have thought even 6 months ago that i would have been able to get all of this done... i never would have had the energy.

as for this round of my 24 day challenge.... i have completed the Cleanse phase, and moved on to the MNS phase.  read about that in the next blog :)
