The last two days have been pretty rough. I have had some kind of stomach virus or bug or something. We have all had it. Fred, Little Fred and I have all had this bug. I managed to drag myself to the gym yesterday morning, but I was only able to do the stationary bike for thirty minutes. After that, I went back home to prepare for the day. With much effort, I was able to visit all of my clients, but I was unable to eat until, later that night. Believe you me, I was able to eat enough from the time I got home until the time I went to bed. I made up for lost time.
Today was a little better, my stomach was still a little upset today. I made it through the day. I managed to complete 28 minutes on the elliptical and three miles on the treadmill.
I have been having pains and aches after my runs. My ankles swell, my knees hurt and some times my muscles are sore. I often would grip about the pain to my husband, but I guess after six months of gripping, my husband has had enough. He told me that aches and pain are a part of the game. He pointed out how athletes sit with ice on their knees during games...so in other words...he was telling me to get it together and realize that if I am going to run and lift weights that I am going to have a little pain from using my muscles in a way that I really have never done to this extreme before. I took his advise and had a great workout this morning. Thank God for such a great husband.
Yesterdays weight in put me back at the weight that I was before Thanksgiving. I over ate for three days and it took me three weeks to get the weight off. What a lesson! A moment on the lips, a lifetime on the hips.
