INSIDE THE MIND OF BOSSCHIK247

OMG! I am so hurting.  I have been trying to keep the intensity level up in my training which means I am do little rest between set of various exercises.  I have done two workouts like this so far and I can tell you it’s like I haven’t even been working out for the last couple of years.  I like this type of training though, but until I get use to it I may need to schedule more rest days I feel drained.  The muscle pain did not start to hit me until 10 AM this morning and I just know that it will be getting worse as the day progresses.  But for the most part I can’t wait to get back in the gym tonight to hit those legs hard.

I ain’t even gonna lie.  I cheated last night!  Fridays are my usual cheat days, but yesterday I just couldn’t resist the chicken wings, various varieties.  Now nothing is wrong with a little cheat now and then, but I can tell you after eating really clean and drinking a ton of water for the last three weeks a  I know that humans are not made to thrive on junk food. You just can not constantly eat like that and think you are going to be "da shit"  I have finally found that out.  So I was throughly enjoying my cluck clucks when I realized that my diet has to always be in the forfront of my mind.  I must remain mindful or else it can all go downhill fast.  So I finish the wings, no doubt I also had the regualar ranch and bluecheese to go with them, I proceed to mess with the cookie dough I bought earlier for my daughter.  That’s when  the stomach started hurting and I knew I had to stop.  At that point I was like "O.K you messed up just a little bit more than you anticipated-STOP IT NOW!"  So I did.  I drank water the rest of the night.  I vowed to pack my lunch for work and just keep it pimpin…So I am happy to report I am back on track.  Protein shake this morning. Apple for my snack, Sandwich on wheat, tuna pack, two more protein shakes and some chicken or fish this evening.  I just can’t let go of the progress that is starting to happen at a fairly rapid pace.  I can’t wait.  I am hitting the gym tonight to work it all out.  Those wings will there (until next time) but those damn cookies have got to go.  Do I hear a protein shake calling my name….

Peace.

So I have set two mini goals for this week.  I am looking to turn them more into habits than anything.  First is to drink at least 1 gallon of water a day.  I am hoping the extra water will facilitate in the weight loss.  I have started off good so far. I am on #4 of the 6.4 20oz bottles I have to drink.  My second goal is to get at least 8 hours of sleep these next 5 days.  I must say I am getting pretty gung ho about getting my shit together.  Everything that I have been trying to implement over the last couple of weeks are turning out to be not so demanding after all.  Yes, sometimes I cheat, but it is usually on a specified day and I don’t go overboard becuase I don’t want to undo everything that I have trained for. 

Ohh!  I also started taking a creatine mix for pre-workout (it is on my supplements used area on Bodyspace).  I got the mix becuase I figure I can get the carbs and creatine in all at once.  I am looking forward to seeing how this affects my training stamina.  I think I will also get the pure creatine monohydrate and stop the mix until I can saturate my muscles.  I am begining to become a supplement junky!  Usally I am looking at shoes, but now its like "What kind of supplement should I be taking!"  I have ran out of whey protien until I get paid this week. Damn three days without-what’s a girl to do?

So just an update on the progress…..My diet has been on point for the last week.  I plan out for the day what I will eat, so it is easy to resist the donuts @ work. I don’t eat after 8 unless I am really hungry and then its just a 1/2 cup of oatmeal.  I have been getting to the gym consistenly and have convinced my co-worker to rejoin our gym-she wants to be fabulous too!  I am basically getting use to the fact that tihis is how a human is suppose to eat, not to fill yourself with crap allday and night.  Went to Walmart the other day and I really wanted some Cheezits. I prayed for the strenght to resist and it worked.  I just find that I have a new found excitement for what is to come.  I wake up  feeling just a little bit lighter  which is a good thing.  I knew this was not going to be easy and I am slowly adjusting to the diet requirements, but I have set many goals for myself and this should be no different, taking it day by day, somedays will be bad I know, but at least it won’t be a habit of filling myself with food that does nothing but add ”spread”.  Eventually I’ll incorporate a cheat day just don’t know when yet.  I don’t feel like I need it at this point.  It will be my secret weapon when things get rough in the resistence department.

Then my crazy azz friend signed my up for a 10K(apx. 6 miles) in November-WHAT! I am still trying to convince myself that it can be done. Give it a week, we’ll see.;) How do you go from not running to runing a 10K.  That is what I am having a problem with. But I always wanted to learn how to do a sustained run.  No doubt that I am not going to run the whole thing straight through but this may be a good way to drop some pounds while training for this.

Went to the gym tonight. Very Good workout. I probably won’t be sore in the next couple of days, but one of those are coming. Maybe Friday so I can recover by Monday and start all over again.  I need to start  adding some ab training in. I was doing Tae bo and that would break my azz down, but we’ll see if I go back to that.

So my short term goals for now is to keep my diet clean, continue to make my workouts consistent, start a running program and just focus.  This is something that I really want. I can lose this weight and get back to where I feel reallly fabulous about myself and life in general. I can do this!
