Woo! Done with week 2! What a rush. I now really know I can do this 100%. Last night was the legs and back along with Ab Ripper X. I enjoyed the former again but really pushed myself a bit too hard with the latter. After getting so pumped up with the first part of the workout I got all aggro and didn't want to be a wimp on the abs, so I forced myself to do more than I probably should have. I ended up kind of overheating myself and spent the rest of the evening with a horrible headache. Live and learn, I guess. I won't stop pushing it but I will definitely dial back a bit when I hit the wall.
Then, this morning I had to get up at 4:45 and do Kenpo because I have plans right after work and probably won't be home till fairly late. I wasn't sure I could do it because I am not a morning person by any stretch of the imagination, but I did! It wasn't perfect - there was some slow going and I was a bit wobbly at first because I was still kind of out of it. However, by the end I was super hyper and feeling GREAT. I am totally wide awake right now, and if I crash it won't be till later. The one thing I didn't think of though was how freaking hungry I would be. It makes sense because I hadn't eaten in 12 hours, so I had my usual afternoon snack (this week it's grapes) this morning. Since I will be eating dinner earlier tonight I think I will be ok without my snack, but if I need one I have an apple or more grapes.
I don't have super high hopes for my weight tomorrow. I was worse than I should have been this past weekend and I completely own that. I was 90% good during the week, but I know I was casual at times (damn you Brian and your El Toro Bravo chips!!). Now that I am back on the exercise train, I am hoping I will get back into the super strict eating, even on the weekends. This weekend will be a good test: out with the girls Friday night, bbq Saturday and possibly dinner with friends Sunday. Can I control myself?? We shall see.
