Wow - So much has happened since I last posted.
Finally!! I am on a "normal" schedule! I love my new position at work, even though it is still a work in progress, but the hours are 8-5 Mon-Fri. It's crazy how much being on a normal schedule can really effect everything you do.
So - I made a promise to myself that since I had pretty much blamed not working out, eating right, etc on my work schedule that once it changed I would never let work get in the way of me being healthy.
Last week was my official start date, but I was in Austin for training for 3 of those days.
I decided that I would be too tired after work to go to the gym, Kyle would be home and ready to eat dinner.....so I would have to go BEFORE work. In order to do that I knew I needed to include that as part of my new work schedule.
I am actually very proud of myself - starting last Monday, I've been getting up at 0515 and going to the gym before work!
Now so far I've only managed to get 20mins in on the treadmill, but I'm focusing more on the act of getting to the gym and working out at this point. I progress to getting more quality time in once the schedule is a "routine".
So Mon, Tues, Weds I was at the gym every morning. THEN on top of that, I met up with a girlfriend to walk the 2.5 mile trail after work on Weds!! That's right, not only excercised once, but twice in one day.
What I wasn't going to mention, was OMG how bad my leg muscles were burning trying to keep up with her (she's been walking like that for quite awhile and has a couple of races under her belt!) I really didn't think I was going to make it, legs burning, then my feet were tingly, ugh. I have a LOT of catching up to do.
So I did sleep in this morning and decided not to go this morning....but I'll be up bright and early tomorrow!!!
Feels Great!!
