the gym was packed today... so much so that I almost didn't get a treadmill to do my workout on. Even though I do hope that everyone that signed up for a gym membership for the new year sticks with it... I don't understand why they had to all be at the gym when I want to go. :) We will see how busy it is tomorrow at 6 AM. I'm not looking forward to having to get up so early to go to the gym but it's what I need to do to get my workout in for the next week. The only thing that is making it somewhat easier is knowing that if I want to take a nap during the day I can. :)
So today at the gym I jumped on the treadmill first since I was unsure I would be able to get one otherwise... then I did the elliptical... that didn't go so well. I did 60 minutes on the treadmill at speed 3.5. Then I jumped on the elliptical... I was only able to do 5 minutes at level 15-17. My legs felt as if they were on fire and I nearly passed out. I got sicker after that... my head started pounding and I was really lightheaded. I felt as if I was going to throw up. This feeling didn't pass until about 1 hour and a 1/2 after my workout. I was able to keep down a banana and some almonds... that helped me start to feel normal again. I'm getting tired of getting sick after every workout. I think I will need to start eating before I do my cardio.
I have tap class tonight that should be fun. I'm looking forward to it. I don't know if I will start taking 2 tap classes a week... unsure if I will be ready to join the more advance class or even if I will be able to perform at the recital. For now I will just focus on getting the extra workout in.
Today I have once again given into my cravings... chocolate covered almonds, caramel corn and Shrimp Alfredo. It was so good. I don't feel guilty at all for eating that stuff. Tomorrow I plan on getting back on track with eating healthy. I have drank my 1/2 gallon of water and am on track to reach a gallon today... just 2 1/2 more water bottles left. That is much better then yesterday when I just barely reached my 1/2 gallon mark.
So I found out this weekend that the wedding that I was going to wear that blue and black dress to in June has been cancelled... don't worry they are already married this was just a bigger wedding for friends and extended family. Now I will have to just focus on getting into a cute Halloween costume in October. That gives me more time! :) Maybe this summer I will feel comfortable enough to wear tank tops and shorts. I have never felt comfortable in shorts and only mildly comfortable in tank tops. I have a long way to go until I reach that point but I'm ready for the challenge.
Let the lbs melt!!!
