The norm this summer has been to be at the lake Thursday, therefore waking up at camp on Friday morning. Not today. Today I'm finishing packing the camper to head out...hopefully by noonish. It's definitely more relaxing to be sitting at camp set up during a summer rain shower than trying to get it loaded while trying to make a minimal mess. Pretty much ready to rock at this point, but I am going to get my workout and a shower in before we leave, which brings me to part II of what I'll call "Funky Friday."
Yesterday was one of my best nutritional days in a week, but I went to bed feeling crummy and woke up feeling like a lead balloon, which is so not the case typically after a "good" day. BUT my week...not my weekend...was not very pretty. My trend has been kick ass during the week, feel awesome going in to the weekend, and then be right back where I started the previous week by the end of the weekend. Which I guess is what we'd call maintenance, and is my bare minimum goal for this summer and lake season, but it's still a vicious cycle...maybe if our boat wasn't name "Pour decisions" I'd have better luck...(that's a lame excuse, I know!)
But going back to how I feel this morning...the Insanity workouts are down right TOUGH and I'm sure (hoping) causing extra inflammation and swelling in my body. I'm trying to push through this little funk today with positive thoughts though. I've replaying Shaun T's commentary on my head from a podcast I listened to last week about how everyone's results are different and males tend to see quicker results than females. He went on to say that with the female test group participants, some of them were getting so frustrated throughout the process, but then in the last two weeks of the program they dropped anywhere from 10-25 lbs, so he was begging all of the listeners to STICK WITH IT. And that's what I'm going to do. My body is getting firmer, my muscles are getting stronger, and I'm feeling rejuvenated mentally as well!
Whatever you may be doing, or thinking about doing, remember the results aren't going to happen overnight, and your body may actually respond "negatively" before the magic starts to happen.
AND NUTRITION. I have no doubt I'd be kickin' tail if I really dialed in my nutrition and followed the meal plan that came with the program...but I'm going to go enjoy another weekend of "pour decisions" and then work my booty off again next week!
Have a great weekend friends!!
