Been slackin’…
…I was going to take today off, but decided not to since my eating as of late has been a little less than clean…nothing too bad, just enough to make me not see results, so I needed this cardio day…and it turned out being a really good one…I ran 5 miles…then walked for about 5 mins, then ran another mile…(without superpump!, which reminds me, it should be here by now, I ordered some on Wednesday….grrr)…
I haven’t been running nearly as much as I used to, I started using the treadmill more and it does work up a good sweat, but I have started noticing a slight pain in my knees…I have never had a knee injury or any knee pain prior to this, so I think it is the treadmill…but it could also be because I upped legs to 2 times a week…I have gone up in weight each week in squats, but never had pain when doing them…and I have also been doing more walking lunges…hmmm I wonder what is up with the knees…I am a little worried about actually causing injury to them, but tomorrow is leg day…I gotta do it
…I have skipped some cardio the last couple weeks that I needed, and I feel a little stuck…not much progress being made…but I have a PLAN…I am gonna try to change things up and work different parts together, like tomorrow I’m gonna do legs/biceps…never tried that combo before, but hopefully I can get "growing" again by surprising my body with different workout combos that it has never experienced before…I have been kinda set in what areas I work together up to this point, but I do change the order of the actual exercises I do, and which ones I do…hopefully this will get things going again…and I plan to add in more running, less treadmill…
..The first timeframe I gave myself to reach my goal was in Feb, and that didn’t end up happening, so it was pushed to March 31, but that’s not happening either, so I am a little disappointed in myself, I have to admit…
…I thought these last 20 lbs would be gone by now, but clearly I have lacked the motivation to get there…mostly it has been diet..and it’s so annoying because it’s not like I am eating out constantly or having pizza and hamburgers every day, or having dessert, or anything that would make it WORTH not making goal, but my slipups have been due to not watching total calories I’m taking in daily…and overdoing it by just enough to keep me the same…I haven’t gained weight, but I haven’t lost it either…
