Rest.... urgg

Man Im irritated. My knee is now bothering me when I drive, and last night i spend the night icing and elevating my knee. Also my hips are aching rather badly. According to the PA, i have tendonitis. So like every other thing in the army, motrin, ice and rest. So I am going to stay out of the gym until after the next rest day. Man that sucks.

When I told her about my fitness regime she said I sounded like a crossfit commercial. LOL. She told me that I couldn't work out. I said that I have been working on upper body. She pointed out that rest meant, not bending down to get my weights set, climbing on the box for pull-ups, all this stuff was aggravating my knee. Right now its tendonitis, but if I don't rest I can continue to aggravate it and it will tear. So I will TRY to be a good girl and listen.

So I won't be back in till friday, thats ok though. Since its not the same without Dymphna.

AD all day!!!

I have had a great day. It started out rocky, my hubby woke up grouchy this morning. But I "talked" him out of it, to our mutual benefit. We had a good breakfast, dennis made eggs and bacon. We took our boys to the gym and they kicked butt! Drew went crazy with shoulder press. He actually went to his failure, and got a 27lb shoulder press PR.

Dennis and I had a great workout. We both worked on power cleans. I got a new PR. It was only one pound. But its still a PR. I got #87. Dennis set his power clean PR at 185. Which is awesome considering he has been broken for a month. (Don't tell him I said that. LOL)

After the cleans, I worked on Double unders and got a PR. 10 in a row. And michelle came in and got one. Yeah michelle!!!

We came home and swam in the pool, even the baby came in and had some fun in the water. Next Dennis and I went shopping for the boys' camping packing list. Then we rushed home and took them to see Hellboy. It wasn't bad. Then we got the boys camp stuff out and realized that their suitcases weren't large enough. So at 1130 we went back out to walmart to buy suitcases. Which is why, now at 1AM I am finally blogging cause we just finished packing all the boys stuff.

Busy, productive, and great day. I love spending time with my boys. Even the big one!! LOL

Oh, and if the title of this post doesn't give it away... I FINALLY had my first good diet day. I followed AD and didnt cheat once. Its so weird, I didn't even crave carbs once. Yet the past three weeks I couldn't make it not one day. Go figure.

I am so excited about the rest day. See ya Monday!!

Foooooood!!!

Man, I have been totally struggling with diet since I have come back from Vegas. I can't seem to make 24 hours without eating crap!! And now I have gained a total of 6 pounds since before vacation. I can't do this! I won't let all my hard work hit the toilet!!! Today is my last day of eating like I don't have a brain.

So in about 20 min I am going to the movies with Dymphna, Nat, and my lover. And I am going to have movie theatre popcorn and a slushie. Yummy, yummy. Then I will come home and rub my swollen belly and try to sleep. LOL

Then when I get up, I am going to start over. Saturday morning will be day one. I am going to go back on AD. I am going to crossfit. I am going to do some extra cardio (probably jump rope). And I am going to have D measure me. So all my fat will be weighed and measured. Then I will have a record of where I don't want to go back to.

Well, dennis is calling for me to put my shoes on to go see Xfiles. So I am going to go enjoy my movie theater popcorn. And I'll wake up chanting my mantra:

Nothing tastes as good as being thin feels!!!
