Yes, I know I have been MIA for a bit. And there is an explanation... I won't promise it's a good one, but I will tell the truth. So here goes:
I did the Cardio Circuit on Thursday like I was supposed to do. On Friday, with company in the house visiting from San Francisco, I began the Cardio Power and Resistance workout, and then about halfway though I felt his stabbing pain just behind my shinbone.... SHINSPLINTS! OW!!!!!!! Unbelievable pain! So needless to say I had to stop and recover.... trouble is when I recover from an injury like this, I tend to get down on myself for not being careful. And when I get down on myself for not being careful, I get HUNGRY! And thus, any resolves I had fror eating sanely went out the window. Now I didn't overeat, but let's just say I got the "screw-it's" about snacks and what not. Alas, I most likely undid whatever I had lost in the way of weight and stamina to keep going, but I still got back on the horse today. Went a little easier so as not to jar my leg again and cause myself to exacerbate an already painful injury. The good news is that I made it through without pain in my shin. Of course being out of practice means I lost my rhythm during the workout, but I think I did pretty good all things considered. I went straight through the whole thing and though it still eats up more energy than I think I currently have, I dug as deep as I could and went all the way through.
And that's the story. No big drama. I'm back on the horse today!
Will start logging meals again tomorrow.
