So Monday and Tuesday were absolutely grueling, and I realized that the Grim Reaper's alter-ego is actually Rick Cain, or vice versa. The major diet changes that I've made so far have been giving up soda (Coca-Cola, I mourn thee) and re-introducing whole grain substitutes instead of regular bleachy carbohydrates. These types of carbs burn more slowly, thus keeping my blood sugar on an even playing field, which prevents the munchy attacks.
Yesterday I realized that being late to Rick's class, no matter HOW late (3 minutes my watch, 5 his) earns either a locked door or six flights of steps. Seriously, ya'll. I've never been more winded in my life. During the third trip up at the end of our workout when I was seeing the Pearly Gates, Rick was right there with me. This has taught me two valuable lessons: 1. to never, ever, be late again; and 2. that I've really gotta concentrate on the cardio.
Today I didn't have time to get to the class so I went to the riverwalk and ran (jogged) and walked the entire way. I'm really feeling it, and knowing that even on a day when I couldn't make it to class I was still able to get a workout in makes me feel all the more positive.
Post again soon!
