There is no better way to describe the last couple days than the title of this post. Sunday was a day off, which was very much needed. Sunday night was my work's Christmas party. Which was nice and I enjoyed myself, however maybe a little too much. Seconds of ham and turkey and mashed potatoes. I even told myself I was an idiot going for that second round, but you know what it happened, nothing I can do about it now.
Monday, well Monday was crap. Sleep was nearly nonexistent the night before and getting up at 4:30 was just not happening. Lucky for me, work was slow but that allowed me to get a lot of work done around the store. Redressing brides, rearranging the run, redoing bridesmaid dresses. So I never really sat down.
Last night was a bad night of sleep as well. Waking up at 4:30 was also not going to happen. So we woke up later, and headed to the gym. Both feeling mildly grumpy. But the good news is that the work out was great. I did my whole circuit and pushed myself very hard, using 20lbs instead of the 12 that I am used to. After one circuit I ran two laps around the track and went back for a second circuit. I didn't make it through the entire circuit the second time around mostly because my legs were killing me. But you have to start somewhere right? So after getting to the point of pain, we walked the track several times and then headed out to have some lunch.
I have the day off so today it is all about cleaning and getting little things done around my house that I don't have a ton of time to do normally. Salmon is marinating in the fridge, green beans will be cut soon and then some rice is already ready to go. After some random house cleaning, maybe just maybe I will lay down on the couch and crash for a little bit. Knowing myself, I won't but the idea sound appealing.
Anyway, back on topic of fitness. As far as my eating is going, I really do well with breakfast and most of the time dinner. Lunch is probably hardest for me. I really need to figure out my ideal carb, protein, fat and caloric intake to get to the my desired weight. As far as working out go, I'll continue on the path I am until I finish the book's program. And continue running until around March. At that time I will probably take around three months off and focus on training only. Then after the three months if I feel ready to the do the competition I will go back to adding in running to get down to the best shape with training before the show. Either way I need to trick my body right now into confusion. Which let's be honest I am doing currently by even working out. :)
Anyway, cleaning time it is. Thanks for stopping by if anyone does. (Shout out to my cuz Kelli, since I know for a fact that she reads this! <3 nbsp="" p="">
