Woke up :)

Worked out last night, Sculpt 3-4 and woke this morning and did Sweat 3-4.
Drinking my well earned coffee and feeling rather pleased that I woke up. A little sore, but doing all right.

Hooray :) Now I just have to make sure I keep doing it...

Oh, had that same chicken again last night, cut chicken in half to put more spices... SO GOOD <3

so very tired

I haven't gotten to work out since Monday evening. I've been in an almost perpetual state of exhaustion. I've been sleeping instead of waking up early to work out in hopes of not being tired, but it isn't working. The stress from everything is weighing down on me :(
I'm going to work out and meet my goals. I really am. However, I also need to make sure I don't hurt myself in the process.
So frustrating

Seriously

I am working out when I get home today. No matter how tired I am or what plans I may be invited to join in on. They can all wait 30-40 minutes.

I was planning on working out this morning before work, but I decided sleep for more than 4 hours was a better plan. However, I think from here on out I will be making myself do morning workouts. Even if it means less sleep. It's too easy to lose motivation throughout the work day, or to get tired and bogged down by work stress.





















EDIT AT 7:51 PM
WORKED OUT

Sleep vs. Working out

That is a hard debate I make every night, or some time in the early hours of the morning.
Some of these debates are me being lazy, others are me weighing the benefits from working out vs the benefits of getting some more sleep. Last night sleep won out, once more. I hope to do two workouts tomorrow to make up for all my missed workouts. However, we shall see what happens.
I do want to get in shape, to be healthier, to achieve my goals. I need to figure out how to get enough sleep and achieve my goals while still getting to maintain my hobbies.
I've made promises I plan on keeping. And I am determined. I'll fix things that need fixing and I'll achieve my goals.

Motivation lagging

How do you convince your half asleep mind at 5am that not only should it stop sleeping, it should workout, even though it's tired?
I'm hoping I can workout tonight after work, maybe do both yesterday and today's workout. We'll see. But it is only 10am and I'm already longing to curl up in bed and sleep.
Last night's dinner was really tasty though. And relaxing was nice. I love that the ac is working nice and cold again, makes my kitten super snuggly ^_^

Make sure to eat and sleep

Postponed workout til after work because we played D&D last night and I would have only got 3-5 hours of sleep if I worked out.
I need to make sure I'm getting enough sleep and eating well. Not to mention drinking enough water. I hope to make a lot of chicken tonight or sometime this weekend that I can slowly work on eating throughout the week.
It looks nasty out but I'm going to keep up my motivation and workout when I get home! Then hopefully I'll get to play test different variations of my Tempered Steel deck to get it ready for FNM tomorrow.

(Tempered Steel is a deck played in Magic the Gathering, FNM is Friday Night Magic-a weekly MtG tournament)
