I went to the gym earlier. My upper body still felt really sore from the first two days. I'm easing back into things so I just stretched out and went on a 45 min stationary bike ride. Love a good sweat, so that was fun.
One thing I will say, though, since we are here anyway: Today was boring and felt tough.
I woke up sore, and it was rainy -- Gloom does not inspire one to workout. I knew this would happen, so I didn't let it stop me, just kind of ignored the old me saying "Bah, sit down, its raining. Fuck that." I knew the initial excitement of the blog, and the decision to do this would wear off and that the realization that I signed up for something really fucking difficult would hit me. I didnt think it would come this quick, though.
I don't think it has, actually. Maybe I am just in a bad mood, maybe my body is adjusting, maybe I just want to be lazy.
Whatever the case, I still did what I had to do. (I got the last 12 minutes in.)
So if anything, there is that.
lol the first thing i thought of when i woke up i was like. it's rainy! i wanna go workout.. no joke. but then i didn't cause i didn't want to walk through the rain. :P keep at it!!! but don't totally deprive yourself.. you'll give up waaay faster that way. i found that buying food in single portions is helpful to me. and i only buy one.. so I'm forced to walk to the store next time i want it or starve. lol
ReplyDeleteAh, great tip! I hear ya about the depriving myself. I am allowing myself a diet coke or a coke zero with meals.
ReplyDeleteI love Coke way too much, so a little of a healthier version for now seems like a good compromise AND a tasty treat.
That reminds me, I need to go buy some fruit!
