Getting back to it

This past weekend was a blur so I will try and recap. Thursday, I did cardio recovery, so lots of stretching and holding stretches (think yoga) for long periods of time. Friday, I did cardio resistance. I think that is my favorite (can you have a favorite torture?) one so far. I like it because it works some muscle as well as cardio. Saturday I had all good intentions on working out but I just wasn't feeling it AT ALL! I was still really sleepy when I woke up despite having a good night and I had to do lots of errands, i.e. yard work, for Colt's party on Sunday. By the time I finished that and the kids were taking a nap, I too wanted to take one....so I did. I decided that I would probably do more harm than good if I tried to half-ass a workout so I took the day off. Sunday was Colt's party and we had a blast. So much fun with all the kids and family. This was my cheat day and boy did I! I had rotel dip and chips and cake and diet Dr. Pepper and fried chicken. Man! it was delicious! But.......I paid for it today. We got back in our routine today and did cardio plyo and it kicked me in the butt like it was day one all over again. It seemed like I couldn't go hard for longer than about 20 seconds. So frustrating! I think I got a pretty good workout in but man, I struggled. I ate better today: cereal, fruit, yogurt, salad with chicken and fat-free dressing, nuts, raisins, and smoothie. I did have a lean pocket for dinner but it is low cal so it's ok :). Til next time, keep striving!
