Alright, I need to update pretty bad! I feel off the wagon a bit. Over the past week, there have been many moments that I have wanted to blog about, but then when I sat down at the computer, I had to study <-- run-on sentence? I dont' care.
Let me start by saying that I'm at the coffee shop that I've been living at recently and there is this guy that is slapping the crap out of the keys and it's driving me insane. I"m really tempted to ask him to keep it down. He's like the hopped up on 5 espressos, hasn't taken a shower in 3 days and his dissertation is due tomorrow kind of guy... reading the words out loud, moving at an annoyingly jerky, quick pace. Calm down dude. Haha..
So the past week - only got THREE workouts in, and let me tell you... you can see the difference plain and clear. My abs are gone, I got super fluffy, my body hates me. My diet was not right either. I tried.. kinda, well actually I failed. Umm.. what else. I had one day where I had road rage all the way home because I was hungry and traffic really really really really really really really REALLY sucks at rush hour aka always.
I pretty much lost all motivation last week. and it's really not back. In my mind, I've given up. I hope my motivation comes back because the hotel is already booked for Vegas!!
Ummm... let's see. By Wednesday I was crashing from complete exhaustion - mentally and physically. It's just all built up and I severely need some recovery time. Not just like - oh I need a vacation, woe me, I'm tired of working. Like - my body is breaking. I am shutting down, this is necessary to my life kind of recovery time. Yikes. Thank goodness school is completely over next week. I will celebrate by spending 3 days in bed. and not regretting a moment of it haha.
My trainer Mike still has faith in me... he probably wouldn't if he saw my un-progress pics from this week (great English huh?). My other competitor friend, who also trains with Mike posted a quote from him today:
Words of wisdom from my trainer: "SAY IT, PURSUE IT AND ACHIEVE IT. IT'S THAT DAMN SIMPLE." ~ Mike Davies
So yep.
I spend 8 hours straight yesterday typing up an outline of only 5 lectures, which comprise half of the Advanced Exercise Physiology exam. Ugh. I really love the material but come on dudes.. we can't truly learn all that info in that short amoutn of time.
I probably seem like a huge Debbie Downer and complainer and whiner, etc right now.
So something positive - I went to my college roommate's graduation from Baylor Law this past weekend. I can't believe the day finally came!!! I am so proud of her!! It was great to see our group of friends too. We don't get to see each other very often since we're all STILL in school! haha. Students for life. But someday we'll make a lot of money and get to travel a lot. Well, they will because they'll be lawyers and doctors. I'll enjoy the pics on facebook because I'll be a coach haha.
Alright, it's time for me and my double shot Americano to get back to work. At least I got in a workout today!
