Day 6 and the in-between.

Wow, WHAT a busy weekend! I love how my one week off of school was spent running around and tending to my little man ;) Things never work out the way you anticipate, and I would be one of the first to scream "hallelujah" to that shit.
My motivation declined over the weekend in regard to my diet and workout. I was at my buddy's house overnight on Friday night (Day 3), and didn't get back home until Saturday evening (she graduated :); Day 4 ) While I did have a great time, I was feeling gloriously guilty at the same time. I NEED to stay on track with this diet, and I NEED to put my "all" into the gym workouts. Mother's Day (Day 5) was spent cleaning like a wild woman, and rushing to WalMart last minute because, yes, this girl totally waited until the last plausible moment to purchase her mother's gift. She loved it, though!
While I didn't eat a horrendous amount of food, nor did I clog my arteries with a bunch of trans fats, I didn't adhere to a "healthy" meal plan or work on my fitness. Today (Day 6) was MUCH, MUCH better start :) I reclaimed all of the lost motivation. Today, I ate a bagel with fat-free strawberry cream cheese for breakfast, a special K bar in between my hectic class schedule, a pear before my workout, and a plate of spaghetti for din din. I also managed to guzzle quite a bit of water, AND I worked out in the gym for an hour. I ran a mile straight without stopping, did 5 minutes on the elliptical (which WHOOPED my ass), and then concentrated on weight-training my legs and arms. Spent about five minutes in the sauna afterwards, and I was a happy camper at the end of it all.
Kind of felt like I didn't get much of a workout, though. This past Wednesday killed me. That trainer murdered my muscle fibers lol. I seriously didn't feel better until Sunday, anyway; I could hardly move without looking like a cripple (it was sad :( )
My sister-in-law is coming into town on Thursday, so I am hoping to keep up with the gym while she is here. Just a little tidbit; gotta run!
