What a vicious cycle. Everybody slept so well in Vermont and we come home to nobody sleeping. Is there something wrong with my house? Kid 1 up at 2 a.m. and into our bed due to a bad dream. I was not going to fight it. Kid 2 up at 3 a.m. with a belly ache. While #1 has his foot up my butt and I cannot sleep too well, Kid 3 gets up just because. I mean really! Then our kittens decide to join in on the fun and terrorize us while we try to fall back to sleep. My husband and I woke up exhausted and I still am.
WOD - Tabata (:20 work/:10 rest) knee push-ups, squats, situps and burpees 8X's each. My chest would barely work and the push-ups were awful. They were even knee push-ups and I had problems. By the time we did our burpees my heart rate was around 170. That is really high for me. In the :20 of work I could only sneak in 4 burpees. I could not do much more. After all that fun stuff I had to ride on the bike; 1 mile followed by 1 minute rest 12X's. I was in a time crunch so after the 6th mile I just rode the remaining 6 miles straight through. It wasn't too bad of a ride but my knot in my left butt cheek was very miserable. I need to get that damn thing out!
Food - It's that "time" so my food intake was not too good today. Started off really well but after my workout I was famished. I had some almonds and as I was heading to the grocery store with kids in tow, I was still hungry. I bought a protein bar to nibble on while I shopped but for some reason that didn't cut it either. By the time I got home I didn't want to unload groceries yet so I just fished around in the fridge and ate whatever I could. Leftover chicken fingers with carrots and hummus. Poor meal! In the afternoon I grazed on some ice cream to fulfill my "I want" attitude. I barely had a serving but it was enough to make me happy yet upset at the same time because I had no will power. Damn mint chocolate chip. The rest of the day was okay because time just clearly ran out on me. I nibbled on a couple of fruit snacks and some goldfish while I started preparing for supper. Dinner was delicious but I'm hungry again. I just think I need to eat more. I haven't been satisfied all day!
Got my first "have you lost weight" comment today? That made me feel really good however I have no clue if I've lost weight or not. Still have that nice bulge going on.
Let's hope there are no more school cancelations for the remainder of the year. The kids are killing me!
I think summer school sounds good for the kids! Great job Bendz, you got through a tough WOD. Proud of ya buddy
