Today I woke up around 11, bummed around in bed until noon. Did the normal routine of taking the puppy out and feeding him. I honestly was not in the mood for a shake, like at all. Thinking of one made me want to vomit. So I made scrambled eggs with a couple pieces of bacon and a banana. I don't know if it was the banana but I was stuffed after that.
I can't believe this but for once, I had a real day off! No homework imminently due, and no work. So we stayed in and relaxed all day until it was time for me to head to the gym. I was so excited about Strongman! While I was waiting for 5:30 to come around I watched Biggest Loser and some Deadliest Catch.
I swear I'm truly not destined to get to this class. Class was scheduled to start at 6. I left the house at 5:30 on the dot. Due to a couple snowflakes on the ground and rush hour, needless to say I didn't make it. I am so mad. So I called the gym and told them I wouldn't be there and would register for a class tomorrow. Came right home and registered for the 9:15 class tomorrow, the earliest I've worked out in I can't even remember how long. So it's going to be an early night for me.
After coming home, I realized I was A) hungry and B) searching for something to do. I solved the hunger by making sauteed shrimp, steamed broccoli and a small salad (which was essentially just lettuce and a cut up tomato). Seems like a lot but I only had a couple small broccoli florets, so the salad wasn't like a game changer. Also had a small glass of wine with dinner.
Once that was done, I made the decision that my "workout" for the night was going to be cleaning my room and bathroom. Needless to say, both are spic and span and I can now make another dog from the amount of fur that was vacuumed. I think I'm just going to continue the trend and clean the rest of the apartment tomorrow after the gym.
So today I decided to take some measurements, for S's & G's. Before I left for the gym I shaved my legs and as I was standing up I looked in the mirror and I don't know if it was the pants I was wearing or what but I was just like Holy God J. Lo booty! I haven't decided if I'm going to embrace it yet or not. So I took some measurements because I actually am curious about where the weight is coming off of. I realize that 26 pounds later is kind of inaccurate, but hey better late than never.
I'm not incredibly proud of any of this but at least I'm doing it while I know I'm improving:
Right calf - 18"
Right thigh - 27"
Hips - 47.5" (damn you J. Lo)
Waist - 38"
Bust - 37"
Right arm - 16"
I'm kind of on the fence about these numbers. The ones like my bust, calf and hips, I really couldn't care less about what they are as long as they're toned. I know squats are only going to accentuate my bubble butt so I'm not worried about its size as much as I'm worried about getting it toned up. Same goes for my calves. My biggest points of contention are my thighs, waist, and arms. If there have ever been body parts that make me hate myself, it's those 3, and I know it's the 3 that the fat is going to come off of the slowest. So incredibly aggravating. I won't be taking measurements again until the final day. I feel like if I take them more often than that I'll just end up driving myself nuts. I got my days mixed up and tomorrow is really weigh-in day. It's looking like I'm going to be the same exact weight as last week, and that's ok, it was just a bad week, but I definitely will be pushing it right up until the end.
Hope everyone had a good hump day!
