so I realize there was no blog post Friday...I suck at life sometimes ya'll. I was house/dog sitting in Canton for the weekend. What an exciting life I lead.
Anyways, last week was kinda somewhat a little bit of a shit show. Wednesday was horrific and I don't even want to begin to talk about it, and I definitely should have called off my workout but I didn't. Friday was way better, wayyyyyy better. I was a lot happier, and more mouthy. Which is my specialty. Ask my mom. She can tell you. I don't know what anyone expects when we're doing push ups, all we do is push ups. Just kidding. If you haven't seen the "shit women say to personal trainers" video, I will direct you to youtube at this time. Friday we did a lot of stuff, and by a lot I mean a lot. Like push ups, planks, shoulder presses, chest slams, step ups, 45 degree pulls and seated rows. Also I will note instead of the 10lb medicine ball we used the 12 and did 30 instead of 12. Movin on up in the world. Except I would have been just as happy with the 10lbs and 12 rep situation haha.
I'm also back using myfitnesspal. Long story short I was thinking about when I lost the most weight and was actually feeling I won't say good... But better than normal...when was that, and what was I doing? that was January, and I was running myself ragged doing crossfit classes, working out with Darin, classes at the Y and c25k and eating 1500 calories or more a day...sooo when I got up this morning I decided to log my weight (insert not so happy face here) and then MFP decided to change my calories and macros. Apparently I can now have 1830 calories. I'm sorry what was that? am I training to be a sumo wrestler by next week? well, the answer is no, and that was precisely what I squealed when I saw that number. I do GOOD to hit 1300 calories a day, so let's be clear. 1800 is not a number I will be acquainted with. Except weirdly enough, Darin said that wasn't out of the question. Which. again I say what?! that really does seem like a lot. Like I feel like all I've done today is eat and I barely broke 1500. My appetite still isn't back to normal but I feel like not eating isn't really doing me any favors. After today's workout I ate not one, but two of my kashi honey almond flax seed bars, but I really like those, so that wasn't super hard to do. Then I found myself at subway....I got a subway club on wheat bread because when I order food at places I get nervous and that's the first thing that came out of my mouth. Their bread tastes like dirt, but it is what it is. I've also not had anything but water to drink today and let's be clear, I have a headache and there isn't much I wouldn't do for a mountain dew. #ihaveaproblem also I'm thinking about trying insanity or p90x mostly because I make poor choices but I'd like to see what the fuss is about. Though Rebecca said just watching insanity made her tired, but she's a lazy pig sometimes and a snitch, so I don't know that I fully trust her assessment. Hmm. We'll see.
Which brings us to today's workout which feels a lot like just what I did between meals today. Cause all I do is eat. insert pig emoji here. Anyways, there were a few more squats than I would like, but I mean. I guess after 10 months, I should be used to it. But yet here I am bitching. Surprise. Just kidding, no one here is surprised I'm bitching (at all) or specifically about squats. they're just so stupid. of course I would choose stuff like squats and push ups that are like "the best" exercises (the best to who, is yet to be determined) to hate. I freakin would. and we did (and by we I think we all know I mean me) did what his sneaky ass tried to call a "cable push press" which was a cable squat and press. I know a squat when I see one! I may not be able to do math or really know what coast I'm on, but I know when my lower body is about to take a beating. I did a 3 point row today with like 35lbs and I'm beginning to hate those too. It's fine when it's easy, but I don't like it when 6 reps is rough and I don't know how the hell this happened but my left side is a lot weaker than my right. I haven't had a stroke that I'm aware of. Nor did I ever go to the gym and just do exercises on one side. I'm basically the 8th wonder of the world. Everything on my posterior chain hurts and all I really want to do is go lay down, which, is all I ever really want to do if we're being honest. In an ideal world, I would lay in my bed all day, read books and eat poptarts.
Anyways, that's what I've been doing the last 7 days. Here's to hoping operation "eat ALL the food" actually sends the scale in the right direction.
