Recovery

Wow, this sinus infection kicked my @ss.  When I first started my antibiotics, it didn't really seem like it was working.  It actually seemed like it was getting worse.  The initial on set was just drainage and really bad pain in my ears, but not bad in my sinuses.  After a couple of days, the ears still hurt bad and then my sinuses got more plugged.  It felt like someone punched me repeatedly around the cheek and jaw area. For a couple of days it even hurt to chew!!

I managed to get some workouts in during this time, but it wasn't very much.

1/18 - Speed 2.0
1/22 - Core Cardio
1/25 - Upper Focus
1/28 - Speed 2.0

Now on to the GOOD NEWS.
Well first start with the Bad which is going to be . My highest weight was the day we returned from a vacation to Colorado on 8/28/2013.  I honestly can't remember when I started this blog if I called this 'X' so I may have to re-baseline my number reporting.  Anyway, I joined a T-25 Challenge starting 11/04.  On this day I weighed X - 2.2 which we will now call Y.  So basically my weight fluctuated up and down between September and October.

On 12/05 I weighed X-5.6 (Y-3.4).

On 1/4 I weighed X - 9.2 (Y-7).

Today 1/29 I weighed X - 12.2 (Y-10).

With being sick quite a bit during this workout period and many holidays actually, I'm only through about 8.5 weeks of T25.  Another 1.5 more weeks of the program to go!  I will likely repeat another round though so I'm looking forward to it.
