Reboot Day 2

I did not want to get out of bed this morning for aquatics.  And I almost didn't.  When I mentioned not going to Joe he said, "But you love it and it's awesome."  To which I replied, "I love this bed...it's awesome."  A minute later I dragged my butt out of bed and got ready for class.

I'd love to tell you it was so worth it and the class was amazing, but in reality the class was way crowded!  14 people showed up today (normally there are 3-5 people).  Exercising in that kind of traffic isn't great, but I got a good work out in.  When it was over, I was happy I went and got my 45 minute exercise out of the way for the day.

At home, I had my cucumber juice and it went down much easier today.  I had my bowl of strawberries and grapes on hand in case the taste got to me.  I like the taste of cucumbers and I like the smell, but like I said yesterday, my mind hasn't quite gotten behind the idea of drinking the cucumber.  So I took it slow and before I knew it, the juice was gone.

I then made a big lunch for Joe and I because he is working the evening shift today, so I like to make my 'dinner' for 'lunch' and then have 'lunch' for 'dinner' because I will be eating that alone.  It's nice to have dinner in the afternoon.  It probably even makes sense digestive-ly so I don't have a big meal to digest right before bed.  This way, I have half a day to digest and will have a small sandwich and salad for my evening meal.

Now, I haven't done my lower body strength yet, but I need to get some work done right now and plan to take a break to do my LBS while I work.  I still feel more tired today and have less energy than I did yesterday, but Day Two is on track.  Come on day three...I'm ready.

  2. That's my thought every morning when my alarm goes off. "I love this bed...it's awesome." I'm proud of you for trying to drink cucumber juice, I don't really think I could do it. I do love to eat a cucumber though!! I've been having a really hard time with getting in my strength training. As in, I haven't been doing any strength training. I did some leg exercises in the pool earlier this week. I can tell a difference without the strength training but that doesn't make it any easier to fit it into the schedule!
