Finally went to bed early enough last night that I woke up early enough and with enough energy to do my workout!! Yeah!! Unfortunately I couldn't walk!!! Booooo!!! I think I mentioned in my other post that on Saturday we went to Patrick's studio to workout. I didn't know that we needed to bring a pair of indoor trainers so I worked out and did all my jump ropes barefooted. The workout part was fine but jumping barefooted hurt so I think I jumped more on my tiptoes which resulted in tremendous pain in my calves. I was hoping it would be better by the time I got home so I could at least do a brisk walk, but when I was having to take the steps at the train station one at a time on the way home I knew it wasn't going happen. I popped some Aleve and did the rest of the day 11 workout but skipped the cardio (jumping portion). I am pretty disappointed and hoping to feel lots better in the morning. I know lots of people on here are trying to shed some fat and become more ripped and some of us have more fat to burn than others. I am def one of the ones with quite a bit of fat to burn so I really need to be able to get my cardio in each and every day.
The day was pretty long so I don't exactly remember but I know breakfast was an Easter Egg (light green), raw carrot, milk and a little jasmine rice left over from stuffing the peppers yesterday. Morning snack was a banana. Lunch was the same as yesterday (shrimp and veggie toast minus the avocado).Afternoon snack I think was an apple and dinner was the same as yesterday as well...stuffed bell pepper (stuffed with turkey, grilled veggies and jasmine rice).
Off to bed and hoping for better calves tomorrow.
Hey Lori - try some stretching for your calves. It works a breeze once you've done it for a while. Keep it up - you're doing brilliantly.
