UGH.
So, today I had my High Intensity Interval Training after I worked my upper body and my abs. Working on my upper body was tough and I couldn't finish the number of reps I was supposed to - but I'm mostly basing it off what I can and can't do. So if I can only do fine of a set, I try and do six. If that six turned out to be easier than I thought, I try and do seven.
Now I need to let you know I don't look cool doing this at all. Movies make people pushing their limits look so fierce and exhausted and gorgeous with their sweat sheen in all the right parts of their head but I gotta tell you, I just looked like a wiggly noodle trying to push up ten pounds. It didn't bother me though. I found out something cool working out today - no one cares.
Literally. Go to the gym. No one is actually looking at you. If you work out on a machine where you're forced to face someone, everyone does their best to NOT stare at you because wow is that awkward or what. So if you avoid going to the gym because you think people are going to be staring and thinking, what are they doing here? Ignore it. Trust me they don't look. And if they do, it's probably because your shin makes a really good focal point when working out.
Anyways, so back to me whining. The ab training was tough too. I'd rather do a few right and wobble out then do a whole bunch wrong and make the rep mark. So I did a few right and I'll being paying for it in the morning.
The HIIT was tough as well but I have to tell you how satisfied I was to feel it. It was even satisfying to sweat (but also super super gross I mean ewwwww).
Proper after gym-wear. Slippers!
After the gym I hobbled to my car and went home, begged for some pressure from my mom and then got in the shower and took off to a two hour trip to Walmart because I don't know what healthy foods look like. In hindsight, I probably shouldn't have gone right after a workout because all I wanted was a huge box of cheezits and all of the Bagel Bites the world can carry and wanted nothing to do with spinach but hey. Live and learn right?
How do adult?
After two recommendations, I also bought me a George Foreman and a Brita water filter so I can drink my gallons of water a day and do it with nice water.
Overwhelmed with health.
It's a really nice water thing.
I got home and begged my roomies (who get up as early as I do so we all sleep at about eight-nine) to rise from the ashes and help me carry in my groceries and then...
Sigh.
I purged every bit of food I have that wasn't part of Kristy's approved list. Purging meaning my roomies really made out let me tell you.
Anyways, I am EXHAUSTED and all I want to do is whine about how big of a bill that was but I guess people don't buy George Foreman's every trip they take to Walmart.
Tomorrow, I think, if I'm awake enough, I'll make a list of selfish goals I want. I mean OTHER than the lifestyle change, there are some things I definitely want to get out of this for sole personal pleasure.
Like getting some guns.
If you squint really hard you can pretend there's a bump.
See? No guns.
I guess this is the time when I should be trying my hardest to work on optimism.
Okay let's give it a go.
