Wow, so I have been MIA on this site for a while.
And yeah- I have been too scared to step on the scale for a while. Not going to do the "wah wah, whine, whine, poor me" BS. Today is a new day and I just need to get back in the saddle.
This is my thoughts about the past week or so- it happened so I am not going to beat myself up about.
I am also going to wait until Friday to step on the scale.
For the first time ever, I got sick while running. There is a decent possibility that I was actually fighting something- but I think it is more likely that I finally got so stressed that my body didn't know what else to do. That was on Friday and it was awful. I don't carry a cellphone with me when I am on my runs, and I was over a mile away from home when I realized I was in trouble. Adding insult to injury, the bathrooms where I run were out of order because of a new paint job so I wasn't able to use them either.
Needless to say, I was too terrified to run on Saturday. And I was still sick for most of the day.
Yesterday I went on a run, but I was still scared that I was going to get sick again so I only ran about 2.5 miles. But, I didn't get sick- I did cramp up a little and I was feeling "off" but it didn't get worse and I was able to run most of the way. My time was 8 minutes 39 seconds per mile.
It felt so good to finally get to the point in my running where I was able to run a little over three miles without stopping. After getting over how happy I was to be able to run without getting sick I was sad I have regressed. Oh well, I may have still been getting over whatever my body was doing.
At any rate- I am back on board with my health starting this morning.
Actually, does last night count? I don't eat in my sleep so technically I haven't eaten anything bad for me since last night.
To save my sanity I will wait until Friday to step on the scale. It won't be pretty. Stress makes me bloat (my feet barely even fit into most of my shoes right now) and that does translate on the scale.
This is me- Friday morning. Be warned.
I won't even be able to go for a run today, the heat index is suppose to reach 111 and that is just too hot for me to be running. I will do some weight lifting, and do some of the
Brazilian Butt Workoutto help with the jiggly-butt problem, LOL!!!
This will be me- but most likely with Mob Wives on in the background and Marlow trying to play with me.
Things I am happy about:
- playing cards with hubby
- AC in our apartment
- workout options
- coffee, coffee, coffee (can not stress this one enough)
- skirts, it is way too warm for pants today
