THEFATCHICK's CalorieKing blog
Tuesday, Feb 24 2015 - Back in the saddle
View THEFATCHICK's food & exercise for this day
I am happy to say that I went to the gym last night, did my bike, got my a$$ kicked by Elle in training and although it hurts to breathe today (cause she's that good at what she does) I feel alive and energized. I'm back in the saddle and ready to finish out the trail to a life of health and fitness.
She changed the routine...honestly I hate that word, cause there is nothing "routine" about it , the circuits are hard, physically or endurance demanding, depending on the move. I'm always moving and always working with the exception of a water break and even then if I take them to close together I have to walk in place while I drink. Yesterday was great, I burned 700 cal and it was awesome!
This morning my upper abs feel like they are pulled through to my back, they feel so tight! We did a lot of legs and added weighted pliés for the inner thigh along with bicep hammer curls and tricep kickbacks. Thursday will be mostly chest, back abs, hams and glutes I'm sure. She said she really wants to help me get where I want to be by my trip in June...neither of us expect for me to be at my goal just to be comfortable wearing shorts by the June trip. The rest will happen when my body is ready for it as long as I work at it.
I did notice I was up a pound this morning but I think it's water because I didn't really drink as much as I usually do and had fish for dinner so we'll see what tomorrow brings.
And thank you to everyone who sent well wishes on my blog and privately for my God daughter, she was released from the hospital last night and is home resting. At this point they could not find anything that would have caused the bleeding and said it is probably a bug that has to work through her system because every test came up negative. So while it's crazy to think they sent her home without knowing why she was so sick, they do know what's not causing it and she seems to be a little better than she was a few days ago. Thank goodness and thank you all for your prayers.
On this note I have to scadaddle....stay healthy and strong!
