Monday I began my new workout routine thanks to the Nerd Fitness Academy. Yesterday, I felt pretty good. I woke up with no pain and no soreness, which is always a plus. I spent the day building legos with my son and relaxing.
Later in the evening, Matt and I began renovating our daughters room. I was fine in the beginning. Half way through we took a break for dinner. That is when I began feeling the soreness. After dinner, I went back to work on the rest of the room. That is when I began to feel the pain. I finally finished and got the kids into bed. I decided to lay in bed while I waited for my friend to show up (I was babysitting her daughter). I attempted to crawl into bed and could barely do it. My entire body hurt. Once I got into bed, I couldn't even move to get comfortable without hurting. Even the slightest movement hurt like all craziness.
This morning, I felt a little better. I was still sore but definitely not as bad as last night. I had my morning coffee and then began my workout. It was a little tougher today but I made it through. Afterwards, I took a shower and got dressed. Today it wasn't sweats or pajamas. I put on my jeans and a nice shirt. It made me realize something. I feel so much better mentally. I may not have seen any physical results yet but I just feel better about myself. So, despite the pain, I feel great to be working out again. Here is to Friday's workout *raises water bottle*.
The hardest part of this whole thing is the food. I want to indulge in all of the things that I shouldn't eat. I want donuts, cake, cookies, chocolate, ice-cream, all of those "not so healthy for you" foods. But even more so, I want to live a long and healthy life for my kids. I want to see them grow up. I want to be in their lives and see what kind of adults they will be. I want to meet my grand children and see them grow as well.
I know there is still plenty of time for that kind of talk. ;)
