Sore throat

I woke up with a sore throat this morning and just generally feeling horrible. I may have to give in and start on allergy shots. This allergy forecast is horrible for today and even worse on Wednesday!!

How quickly we forget

My leg was already sore and right this morning after the Sat work out still before I even started my Dynamic Core. Now my legs are still sore - especially my knees as I drive. I guess my body just doesn't remember and bounce back like before. Need to remind myself of 'no pain, no gain'.

Almost there

Getting there - step by step. I pushed play this morning and got in Dynamic Core and also drank my shake. One day at a time. Must focus on the end goal and endure.

Minimalist Mantra

Found this on Pinterest and Facebook.



Will print and post this up. Some of it will be so hard (basically all the stuff up top) but some will be really good to start (the stuff in the middle).

Got a good start by sorting a large amount of donations this weekend and actually dropping it off. Looking forward to letting go of the non-essential.

Reboot

The hardest part of any workout I think is pressing play after too many breaks. So much easier when you get in a habit and remember your goals. Between work, being sick, running around with daily life and a quick trip to NYC, I have not been so good about daily workouts. I've been trying to do more such as walking with the kids to places and some t25 but I don't think the results have been the same.

Just finished Rip't Circuit and I'm half way through beta week 5. I need to figure out how to bottle this endorphin high I get from working out now as motivation to push play for the next workout. A friend asked me just last night how do I free my mind and get it to shut down from the daily mental to-do list running through it without meds and alcohol?  Maybe I just found drug of choice and it is my t-25?

A little post workout selfie.

Back at it

I'm getting back into the routine my friends! Been off my game lately and are like a pig in NYC. I guess it was good that I got a stomach virus the first night and basically retained nothing I gorged on that day?!?!? Had more self restraint the following days since I was still feeling awful but did enjoy a lot still. Actually only about 1 pound heavier than when I left so not bad!

Starting anew

Yesterday was the first day of my new role at work. I'm excited about having the new opportunity. Unfortunately, my day ended with a giant migraine. I ended up sleeping for almost 11 hours so that felt good. I'm tired of all the snow and cold here and am super ready for warm weather!!!!

Lazy but did it

Did not find time to workout this morning even though I had my workout gear on. I had to take our kids to Chinese school and was exhausted by the time I got home. My husband has been doing fixes around the house and was tired and about to relax on the couch. I dragged him downstairs to workout with me. We got our Speed 2.0 finished. It was great once i got into it and am glad we did it. Nearing the end of Week 9.

Can't wait for this round to end, check my results, and do it all over again. :)
