I made it through another work out tonight. My legs are so sore today (from bootcamp yesterday) that I can barely sit down. I'm using the handicapped stall in the bathroom at work so that I can use the bar for assistance (LOL). Its kind of embarassing when you go into your boss's office to talk about a work issue and you have to fling yourself down into his chair because your legs are way to sore to sit gracefully. :)
So, when the trainer had me do lunges tonight, I thought my legs were going to fall off --- no wait, I was wishing they would fall off so that I wouldn't have to feel the pain anymore.
I know I'm bitching, but surprisingly, it helps.
And about those damn shakes. I had 3 shakes today (480 calories) and I broke down and had a cup of coffee, a handful of granola and 2 slices of turkey meat. For a grand total of about 730 calories - and according to my heart rate monitor, I burned 599 in my workout. What does this mean - Im tired, sore and cranky. But, I think this will be worth it when I weigh in on Thurday. Guess we will see.
Some other interesting things, I was getting pretty bad headaches in the afternoons, from caffeine withdrawal (stopped drinking soda) - but the headaches aren't so bad anymore.

About this blog
I am a 30 something year old woman looking to lose weight and get back in shape. I hope that this blog will provide inspiration to me and to others. I am much more motivated to workout when I can make it funny and glean some humorous stories out of it - these will mostly be self-deprecating. Please, I beg of you, post comments with your own funny stories or success stories or complaints about exercising or whatever. Just FYI, I work-out at a great gym in Anthem, Arizona called SWEAT.
