Keep Moving!

Well, I dragged my booty back to the gym today to keep working on the workout that Sharon gave me now that I actually have control of my limbs again and I don't limp with pain. This time I didn't get to the point of vomiting, so I guess I'm improving. It was a good workout although I felt some discomfort in my right pec, so I eased up on those exercises. I had a little diet breakdown yesterday and had Mac and Cheese for dinner and a Hershey bar after with some nuts. Not totally bad, but I just needed to chew on food rather than sucking it through a straw and I just needed a sweet fix. Hopefully it doesn't set me too far back; it shouldn't.

Swimming was good yesterday. Working on the distance still. Trish says Thursday we'll start doing some sprinting and timing with 50 yards. Should be challenging. I will probably only work out 2 more days this week, which is cutting it one short for me. I had my first of two A+ certification tests on Monday and then next tomorrow. I passed on Monday with flying colors, and I have my fingers crossed for tomorrow. I've been jammin' away at my new job as well, learning a new software. This, of course, required a total schedule change in my life. I am really committed to working out though, and getting up at 5:30 to make it to the gym doesn't seem unreasonable to me at all. All the extra studying and demands on my time in conjunction with the new, challenging workout are just zapping me. But, if I take one more day off this week, I should be able to be back up to normal speed next week. Ahhh, next week, can't wait to get there and things calm down a bit...

On the last note, Dave O at Zap120 has had some really inspiring things going on in his podcasts lately, as well as Scott with Motivation to Move. Thank you both for what you do. And if you, dear reader, need some motivation and inspiration, check these two out. Cheers!
