...over did it again.
Well, once again I totally over did it at the gym today. I got so sick that I couldn't get ready afterwards so Matt and I could go out on the town. Instead we drove around while I laid back until I felt well enough to eat and stand up.
This sickness has got to stop! I don't normally over do it as much as I did today, but I always feel somewhat sick afterwards. I am really under the idealism that you don't have to push yourself that much to get results. But I was trained for months by personal trainers to work this hard.
So Matt and I made a new rule today: no grimacing. If you are grimacing while lifting weights, you are working too hard.
I know part of the reason I over did it today is because I haven't worked out at all this week and I was trying to make up for it. I haven't been feeling well the last couple of weeks. I've really allowed my emotional stress get the best of me. But I've been really even on my diet and that's great.
Here are the positive things I've done this week:
-Drank only one soda (I've been substituting with green tea or jasmine green tea, which is my new favorite tea)
-Making sure I eat a lot of fruit during the day
-Didn't eat any delicious sweets at our company picnic
-Didn't get a free small popcorn at the movies
My goals next week are to workout 4 times and loose 2 pounds.

Personal trainers are a crock...they never know how to train regular people...they train you to work out like you're already in shape and have been doing it for years...stay away from them...
