Two twelve hour days at work, made the 7:30 AM workout this morning considerably harder to attend. The two hour workout that followed made walking considerably harder as well. I seriously considered crawling out of the gym on my hands and knees, but thinking of the sweat soaked floor I decided against it. I actually had to stop Mac today and tell him that I had to go to work. He still wanted me to log a half hour on the treadmill! I think he's taking advantage of my "I dare you to break me" attitude, and in hindsight perhaps that wasn't the smartest approach for me. LOL I mean, I didn't actually say that to him, but everything he's given me so far, I've sort of acted like it was easy. So, today, I started telling the truth. Maybe the workout was punishment for being dishonest...probably not, but it sure felt like it.
I saw someone from church at the gym today, and it was a little strange. Have you ever noticed when you see someone out of their normal surroundings, you suddenly don't know what to say? It's like you're mind goes blank. The person I ran into was a man and his son, Bob and Bob Jr. I said "Hey Bro. Bob!," and then I just smiled at the person standing next to him because I literally could not remember his name! After some awkward small talk, they went on their way, and it came to me. "Bob!" Wow! The two guy's names were the same, and I couldn't even get that out. I'm trying to blame it on gym brain, but I think it has a little something to do with all that's going on this week.
Well, eating is going well I think. Still haven't started my official program yet, but I think I've got a good handle on eating smaller meals more often. So at least that's a start. I have another workout after work today, and again with Mac at 7:30 tomorrow morning. As much as I don't want to cut any of them out, Kristi told me I have to be realistic about this week being abnormal, and having a lot of extra stuff to do. If I miss one workout, I've still accomplished a lot this week to be proud of. I'm trying to believe that. I just hate having to alter my plans this early on. I guess overall it was a bad week to change my life, and that was my choice, but as Mac said, if I can make it through this week, then I can make it through anything! Thanks for all your support friends!! Much Love!
