Day 5/6

Greetings all.  It has been 2 days since my last blog.  However, today is the only day that I have yet to workout (I'm mustering up the energy as I write).  This is when the going gets tough and I remember the obstacles that have slowed me down or brought my efforts to a screeching halt in times passed.  Life by itself, vacation, women days...all the things that contribute to a complete lack of oompf, whether that's how you spell it or not.

Correction: I got my workout in, super duper late, but again 'better late than not at all'.

It's now 11 o'clock on a Friday night and I just finished my workout for the day.  I knew today wasn't worth a miss because I was still alive and well enough to complete it.  Like I said before, I have rested for almost 29 years.  I did workout on Day 5, I just didn't get a chance to video or blog.
Today (Day 6) was the hardest day to get motivated and workout.  I had all the excuses that used to derail me, but this time I also had a response:
Woman days=hefty medication, although accidental
Tired=so what!?
lots of company=go in the un-airconditioned guest room for a sauna workout
nausea=toilet is close by, get over it
lack of motivation= Dee Dee did it, so can you  :-)
I'm really quite proud of myself, and I know some of my biggest supporters are too.  I thank all of you, including Corey and the company who are occupying themselves with the TV in the other room in order to drown out my workout sounds.  Measurements and weigh-in to come in 3-5 days :-)  No need to do so now, as my results will likely be depressing.

I'm ending the day more proud of myself than the day I began this all.  I showed even myself that I am serious and determined.


Highlights: PRIDE; workout
Lowlights: late workout; food choices; motivation
