Monday - got up, did 20 minutes eliptical, level 8
Went to chiropractor - lots of good news (my bones are beautiful, thick and healthy, my lungs look really good...) a little bad news - some arthritic changes in my neck..and my lumbar/sacral area is jacked up...oh, and I have a lovely s-curve in my upper back. At least my midback looks great :)
The Chiro says she thinks we can fix most of the issues, get my nerves functioning and transmitting better - which translates to better workout performance and recovery and growth :) She also said to add back in Yoga and pilates for the deep core work and breathing.
Had a good adjustment and went to workout :)

Well, I start a new workout journal tomorrow...that is the second one I have filled so far without really getting side tracked for more than a few days :)
My weight is up a little from vacation, but has dropped a few pounds every day, so I am thinking by Saturday I will be rid of the excess water and back where I should be...
Feeling pretty good today!
