Best of luck with the challenge! Remember, 30 days is not a long time!
ReplyDeleteSo I did not post on Day 1 because I stumbled quite a bit. Both physically and mentally. Doing my first workout mid-day had it's challenges. It was very hard to complete. I also realized that I had not packed enough food for the day and found myself wanting a diet soda or candy to increase my energy. I'm proud to say that I did not give in to either temptation. Dax was definitely right about withdrawals...I felt like an addict. Instead of indulging, I got up from my desk, took a walk, drank some water and finished out my workday. Got home and started the next workout and realized I did not have enough energy to complete it.
ReplyDeleteInitially, I felt disappointed in myself. I was ready to send Dax and email letting him know I couldn't do it. Then I looked at myself in the mirror and decided I was worth it. I made this commitment to myself and I didn't want to let myself down. I knew that if I did not complete this 30 days, it would just be more of the same. I am ready to change. I went to bed at 9 pm so I would feel refreshed for the next day.
Here I am on Day 2 and my day started like this:
5:00 am alarm went off and I hit the snooze button
5:15 am alarm goes off and I slide out of bed, turned on my I-POD with my eyes half shut
You all know what comes next...First Meltdown begins in 5...4...3...2...1
I focused and I completed my 4X4
By the end of the workout, I had already drank a Liter of water.
5:40 took a shower
6:00 Had breakfast: Scrambled Eggs, Steamed Spinach, 1 banana
8:30 Arrive at my desk for work eating carrots and drinking water
My density for day 2 is:
Pushups 31
Squats 43
Shoulder Press 48
Stepback Lunge 26
Spiderman 18
Step Through Lunge 28
Curl 50
Press Squat 43
More to come.....
