The Fat Girl Roll–That’s How You Start Your Week
So, okay it has probably happened to us all, whether we are big girls or small girls. For a year, I’ve been avoiding these little jump things that Dani does onto a step. I lowered the step (you know for us short people) and decided after a year, I should try it.
Well, today was proof that some exercises some people are not going to be able to do. I just couldn’t get my foot up over the step when doing a jump. So, what happens? Yes, the inevitable. My foot caught the front of the step and I went flying forward. Now, luckily for me a fell forward enough to miss the rest of the stupid step (that would have been horrible on my elbows. Instead I landed on the mats and did some sort of tuck and roll. Probably something to do with going into survival mode.
I know everyone wanted to laugh. Frankly, I don’t blame them. Dani asked if I was okay and gave me props for my tuck and roll. She said if I couldn’t do it, it was okay to modify, because she rather I do that than to hurt myself.
So, I got up, brushed myself off (surprised I wasn’t more disoriented) and finished the workout for the day. Now, with any luck I’ll be back for more torture on Wednesday!
I suppose this is how I would sum it up.
Fine Tuning
So, yesterday I had a little bump in the road and the scale showed it. But, I woke up today and worked on fine tuning my breakfast. Added a few carbs to helps with energy issues during my workout, but didn’t forget my protein since my morning workout has some heavy muscle work.
1 large egg, 1 slice turkey deli meat, 1 large orange, 2 cups of water
Thinking about moving to an energy drink either during or after my workouts.
Wish me luck. I’m off to boot camp……
Always A Work In Progress
Still working on it…..it’s always a work in progress and while I went over on my goal calories today, I’m not going to dwell on it. I’m going to concentrate on making better choices tomorrow. But, darned Pad Thai noodles. They really should be assigned less calories. To boot, I didn’t even eat them all. The serving they gave me was way too big and ended up giving half of it to the kids. Imagine if I had ate them all!
I’m really glad that I’m within reaching distance of my recommended goals. I realize these are just guidelines, but I’m glad that I’m paying enough attention to have them be within reach.
