Today is June 13, 2016 and I just found this draft that I never posted. A lot has changed since this day, including the fact that I have started Crossfit at Emancipation Crossfit. I want to see more results but I can’t express how much better I feel!! I am so happy that Jason helped push me and paid for my first month. Thank you honey.
So here is the old post, not even sure when it was written.
A recap of day 7…
Went to church at Immaculate Heart in Somerton because Kira had to hand out bulletins at mass. It was different, but nice. The priest had a fun sense of humor and that was fun.
Lunch at Applebees since it was only Jason, Kira, and I. That was nice too. I wasn’t feeling really well so I came home and immediately took some Ibuprofen and laid down for a nap. I think it had something to do with my body being on a schedule to wake up early to work out and I messed with it this morning by not waking until 730.
After the motrin kicked in I was up and at em and did some more work in the yard. I finished listening to my audio book and felt like a bad ass with my electric saw cutting tree branches. I also decided not to do a dump run with all of the extra leaves and small branches. Instead I fired up the fire pit and burned all of the outside trash as I was sawing up the larger branches to pile up for firewood. I like it when I can look at a final product and feel accomplished. We still have to chop down some more dead branches but we will need to do that together and we will need a chainsaw to out the larger tree trunks.
Finally I was in a position to do my work out. I did the PIYO Sweat today. Kira was my work out partner and it was fun having her do the video with me. I felt much better today. I didn’t have to do as many modifications and I even did a couple of the burpees. I can’t believe I have completed one week!
So…goals for next week
- Complete the PIYO regimen for the week, Push harder to be able to do less modifications
- Complete the mile walking each day
- Complete the week of squat challenge
- Find a better, more challenging ab challenge and get started with that.
- TRY (I mean really try!!!) to hit the paleo regimen. stop with the carbs Loke! You can do it.
- Get good rest.
This next week is challenging and has a lot going on. Next weekend is the Silver Spur Rodeo and I have volunteered to help Peggy with the VIP tent so I will need to be prepared to meet my goals and still be on my game for the rodeo. Plus, there are appointments I have, and a class I have to attend, and some nursing duties that I need to complete for the clinic. Time to get moving.
Aloha….Loke
