Day 44: Feeling tired... that's for sure!


Okay.. a little slow moving this morning. I did not want to work out AT ALL. I ate pretty well yesterday during the day until about dinner time. Then I just started stress eating... one of my biggest weaknesses. What am I stressed about? Getting my Masters stuff done for the week and oh, you know... I'm getting married on Saturday!! REALLY excited... yet anxious and nervous so it's throwing my body out of whack.

Workout result for today:

Total time = 50 minutes (45 minutes of TF and 5 minutes of cool down/after burn)

Average heart rate = 159 (a little lower than normal from when I do my 45 class... like I said, I was pushing it about 75% of the time... not really 100% dedication today!)

Burned = 495 calories

I will do a "weigh in" tomorrow to see how much weight I lost since last week - excited! I did the 3-day cleanse so that seems to help!

I noticed my site visit boosted big time! Yay! I wanted to share something that I do also that might help you! Whenever I am training for a half marathon or working on out to TurboFire like I have been for the past 44 days (call me crazy!!!), I always make a calendar. It's another way I hold my own self accountable for what I need to do during that day as far as exercise. The number one thing (myself included) is they start making excuses... "I don't have enough time for that", "It's too hot outside", or "I'll just double up tomorrow!" I took those excuses out of my excuse book ;) Seriously though... the calendar has helped get rid of that! So every day I have it "mapped" out for what workout I have to do for that given day. When I complete it, I highlight it or put smiley faces because I did it!

Here's what I mean:



As Chalene Johnson says, "Know how blessed you are to be able to work this hard!" So true! :) An example... if you can't run a mile, I bet you could run for at least a minute and then you can eventually work your way up to a mile. Stop making excuses! Do something for you!
Tomorrow I will be celebrating another success.... HALF WAY THROUGH MY TURBO FIRE PROGRAM!!!!! I am committed to earning my shirt this time!!!! They don't give these away to anyone... you have to EARN it! :-)

Get movin' ... you'll feel better!
