Ahhhhhhh...this week was kind of a bust. I'm quite upset with myself over it; last week went so well after I recommitted myself to my fitness routine and this week just sucked. I can blame Valentine's Day, but honestly, I hate making excuses. But here's my recap anyway...
Saturday - no exercise. Unless you count bridesmaid dress shopping as exercise, lol.
Sunday - again, nothing. I can't even remember what I did last Sunday...I'm too young to be having memory loss (read: I'm starting to freak out about my Birthday being next Thursday)
Monday - ate a ton but forced myself to do Week 2 Day 1 of the Hundred Push Up Program. It was hard. Week 2 makes week 1 look easy.
Tuesday - no exercise, and we ate out again...can you see where this week is headed?
Wednesday - went out to eat again (we shouldn't even being going out this much, we have a wedding to pay for!) but I did get myself to do Week 2 Day 2 of the Hundred Push Up Program. Honestly if it keeps getting this much progressively harder each time, I don't think I'll be able to complete it in 6 weeks.
Thursday - I did not go out to eat (cooked a Weight Watchers recipe for Chili - it was delicious) and I worked out. I did all 5 segments of "10 Minute Solutions: 5 Day Get Fit Mix". Honestly, if you like workout DVDs, buy this one. I love the 10 Minute Solutions set-up, and Amy Bento is awesome. I also find kickboxing (there's a Cardio Kickboxing segment) to be quite therapeutic. I was pretty pissed at myself for having such a horrible week eating/exercising wise and I found myself taking my anger out during the kickboxing segment. It was like with every jab, cross, elbow, and upper-cut I was releasing frustration with myself for having such a bad week, and vowing to not let myself get lazy. When I have a week this bad, I can see the difference in my body (although I may be hallucinating) and I can definitely feel the difference; I feel like crap! But Amy Bento and I kickboxed away that anger and then relaxed with some power yoga (I love Sun Salutations).
Tonight I will do Week 2 Day 3 of the Hundred Push Up Program. I can't not do it.
Did you have a better week then I did, or did Valentine's Day bring you down as well?
My life is CRAZY...I'm working full time, planning a wedding, trying to become the healthiest me I can be, mother to 3 lovely dogs and 2 adorable cats, the list goes on and on. It is definitely hectic, and can be super stressful at times, but I wouldn't have it any other way!
