Tuesday - I appear to have the plague...spent all day sleeping...no working out...not much eating either at least, so I should still be ok on calories...

Wednesday - feeling much better, did 15 min of combat in the morning and sweat way too much, way out of proportion to the amount of effort I was putting in...walked at lunch, planned to just do 2.5 miles, but was feeling very peppy so did the full 3.1 I normally do...by evening I was a bit tired, so I didn't do any additional workouts, just went to bed early.

Thursday - no morning workout, too tired, walked on a break and during ballet, then completed ab ripper and started weights that evening but was suddenly overcome with exhaustion during weights...normally I might try to push through, but since I'm still getting over the plague I figured it was better to listen to my body and stop...some working out is better than none and I don't want to stress my recovering immune system...so at least I feel like I'm starting to get back to normal...by next week I'm sure I'll be back up to speed!!!

Friday was pretty good - walked on my breaks, walked during ballet, completed leg weights (light weights so as not to overdo it), and got some hogwarts work done. Food was not on plan, way too many carbs and ice cream for dinner, delicious, but not exactly nutritious! Tomorrow I will focus more on quality food!

Monday - what a great way to start the week...combat in the morning...walking on breaks and at lunch...weights in the evening...according to my food diary I didn't eat enough, but I actually splurged and had some chocolate and FELT like I was super full most of the day...I am a bit overly hungry today, so good thing I packed extra lunch...

we have a gingerbread house contest at work, so last night I started decorating that.

Oh, and today is my birthday so I'm having a home cooked meal courtesy of my mother, and I'm delighted not to be the one who has to cook it!!!

Tuesday - overslept a bit and didn't have time for my 30 min workout, but did 10 min of hogwarts work...only managed one break and cut my lunch walk a bit short, it was raining and I had to walk indoors and it was way too crowded once lunchtime got into full swing...hit costco for groceries on the way home, not exactly fun in the rain, then had a great birthday dinner with my family...and managed to get in some stretching when I got home...all in all a super day and so happy to be feeling back to normal though I still have a bit of residual cough.

Thursday - started off right, ab ripper in the morning, walking on breaks and lunches, however then I ended up on the phone for 3 hours reminiscing with a friend...the holidays are tough when you are missing loved ones...didn't get to bed until after midnight, but it was worth it.

Thanks Cari!!!

Let's see, I didn't check in at all this weekend...

Friday - day was good, walking on breaks, walking during ballet, and legs that evening...I did skip the split leg deadlifts since my lower back was already totally aggravated from shark week and that one always stresses my lower back even on a good day.

Saturday - crazy busy, running everywhere all day long and didn't eat anything except half an avocado all day until finally got home at like 9:30pm...walked during ballet, got some hogwarts work done, and then did some combat, I was up really late getting the workouts in, but I was totally wired from having such a late dinner anyway so it was good.

Sunday - still a busy day, but I actually sat around when I had a chance instead of keeping moving like I probably should have...did make deviled eggs and had a salad for dinner, plus managed to fit in CVX (cardio + weights) one of the more fun workouts, but way hard, panting and sweating like crazy the whole time...plus, shark week is done, the best part of every month, when that mess is over!

Tuesday - did awesome on my workouts, morning, noon, and evening, just as scheduled...BUT...pulled something in my lower back doing beast cardio, so I'm a little big crippled today...luckily today is a stretching day anyway...and so far it's just sore and a little twingey...
