Everything Hurts & I'm Dying

This is my side blog: follow from Maes-Mama: Aspiring fitblr making through the day without having a heart attack. I'm doing it for my baby because I need to be there for her when she grows up. I'm doing it for me because I don't want to live in this skin anymore. So, here we go!

Nope

I did not do well today. Father's Day is a tough one for me because Mae's dad treats me like dirt but I smile and allow them time together. I did not eat enough and what I did eat was very very bad. I did not go to the gym, I had every intention but it just didn't happen. I'm also not even close to my water intake mark. I'm not giving up but today was a day that I just needed to get through. It's bed time so at least I'll get enough rest. Tomorrow is another day.

A chat with my husband (a professional sports coach) about my weight loss frustrations

Me: I was SO GOOD this month! Ate clean, kept my calorie count low, worked out 5 or 6 days a week, balanced out cardio with lifting, and I only lost half a pound after two months of plateaus!

Husband: I know! I've paid attention! It looks like you've lost more than that, though. You look great and I can tell your energy is way up!

Me: Thanks hon... It's just frustrating to work so hard toward a goal weight and make so little progress.

Husband: You've been doing this for about a year and a half, right? And how much weight have you lost?

Me: 22 lbs

Husband: Ok, so, that's about 1.5 lbs a month, yes?

Me: Yeah, sometimes more than that, sometimes nothing, but on average, yeah.

Husband: Do you like working out at the gym?

Me: Yeah, I do! It's my me time!

Husband: And all that running you do to train for that marathon, are you enjoying that?

Me: Oh you bet!

Husband: Are you planning to quit eating clean or were you just doing it temporarily?

Me: I don't feel like I need to ever go back to eating junk. I've found a good groove!

Husband: So how many pounds do you think you need to lose to get to your goal weight?

Me: 22, I'm halfway there.

Husband: So let's say your metabolism is slowing a bit and a half pound a month is about the average of what you can expect. That means it could take 4 more years to get there.

Me: Oh no! Oh my god! That's too long!

Husband: Oh so all this effort was just temporary? You were planning to give up after a while? Stop exercising at some point? Eat junk again someday?

Me: Of course not!

Husband: Well, do you see yourself enjoying running, getting your "me time" at the gym, and eating clean foods for another four more years?

Me: Sure do!

Husband: So what's the problem then? You're having a blast, you look GREAT, you're feeling better than ever, you're making progress... What's four more years?

Me: I see now why you're such a great coach 😊

Sexiness

The people at my gym are so nice. I almost don’t believe how helpful and encouraging the people I’ve come into contact with have been, but I’m in the middle of it so it’s true.

Today I worked in with Clark and Danny. It was arm and chest day. I had already done one of those in the weekend but they were using different equipment so I figured why not.

Again, they’ve been nothing but encouraging so when I started to struggle during the last set of reps they were saying things like “you got it girl” and “look how strong you are” and “you can do it”. Great! This is what I need.

Then Clark yelled out “c'mon girl, don’t you want to be sexy?” and I was really taken back.

DON’T YOU WANT TO BE SEXY? I could tell that he noticed my lack of enthusiasm for that particular comment and he didn’t say it again.

Why am I killing it at the gym 4 days a week?

I want to be healthy. I want to be happy. I want to be strong. I want to be around for my daughter.

Sexy? Please. I AM sexy.

Update:Arms-Chest-Back

They hurt. My gosh do they hurt. But in a good way. There's a muscle in the small of your back (did you know that?) that is throbbing right now. Sitting on this bus and trying to drive it is not so easy either. I need more water. I'm also going through a bit of withdrawal. Haven't had sugar in almost 36 hours. Hopefully just a few days of this and my body will turn into a fat burning machine.

[mmlosesit]

Why do I always feel like passing out and sleeping after a work out? When am I going to get that refreshed, I want to take on the world feeling after exercising?? When does that come???

[maes-mama]

Arms-Chest-Back

I did it and my gosh my arms are done like dinner.

3 sets of 15 army push ups 3 sets of 15 Lat pull downs at 50 lbs 3 sets of 15 chest press at 50 lbs 3 sets of 15 of this thing that works your back (dunno what it’s called but my new gym buddy, Danny, does) at 35 lbs 3 sets of tricep curls each arm at 15lbs

And 45 minutes of cardio, stationary bike

I don’t know what I was thinking because I drive a bus and my arms are going to be toast in the morning.

[mmlosesit]

But how???

I am really struggling with kicking this sugar. I want to do it, I really do. But how? I eat oatmeal for breakfast. Wrong. I have a veggie wrap for lunch. Wrong. Dinner and snacks I'm ok. It's the first 2 meals of the day that I'm messing up. 😭

Dumbbell exercises to master by Greatist

Leg day

It was yesterday. Yesterday morning to be exact, 10am-11am.

Someone explain to me why I can’t even sit down without whimpering 36 hours later?

Warm up bike sprints (because my ankles are broken) 45 sec lvl 20, 1 min rest lvl 5 for 25 minutes. My legs were burning after this alone.

4 x 17 squats 4 x 15 step ups (each leg) 4 x 15 lunges (each leg)

I’m not doing anything with weights yet, I’m not ready.

Missed cardio today, I seriously couldn’t do it. I’ll go back tomorrow. We’ll just call today my rest day.

I'm not going to be able to yoga this week which makes me sad. Today (Monday) is a holiday so daycare is closed. Class is from 12-1 and I have charters from 12-1 tomorrow, Thursday and Friday. Wednesday is a day with my trainer and then this weekend I don't have childcare. Really hope I'm able to at least hit the gym 3 or 4 times this week. Can't stop, won't stop.

[mmlosesit]

I don't really understand how side blogs work. Everyone I've followed apparently has been from my main. Not a big deal, I guess. Just that I really don't talk a lot about my goals there. Oh well.
