Woohoo… Workouts Done! (3 Days Left)
As much as I like working out, I can not tell you how happy I was to pull the last rep of the last exercise yesterday! I had to put my hands up in victory and give Shaun ‘Muscles’ Campbell a big HIGH FIVE!!!! It felt so awesome to complete the last workout of this 21 week journey. I know I’ll have to pick it right up next week for the June 9th show, but something about it being the last workout before the May 26th show meant something.
So, now it’s all about rest and relaxation as well as getting me all ready for the show from a presentation point of view. All appointments are scheduled and tomorrow I will pack my bag for Saturday. Tonight I’ll prep my Friday and Saturday meals.
I am actually very tired. The low carb diet is beginning to take its toll. However, I get through it by thinking about the WIN I am going to pull this coming weekend.
This morning, when the alarm went off at 4:45 AM – that’s one whole hour later than usual … I had to ask myself how on earth I was doing 3:45 AM. My hubby gave me the best answer ever … ‘you set your alarm for 3:45 AM’. I thought that was cute.
I felt very dizzy this morning. My last meal yesterday was around 7:00 PM, and I’d not had any real carbs since 6:30 AM yesterday morning … so I guess no wonder. I felt much better after meal #1.
The diuretic that ‘Muscles’ suggested seems to be working well. It is called ‘Watertight’ and only sold in certain stores. I was initial going to go with just Dandelion Root, but since I wanted to ensure I came in as tight as I could considering what my body had gone through with the pregnancy I opted to give this product a shot and I’m not the least bit disappointed. I feel that it is much more effective. It claims to have 20% more Taraxacum from Dandelion and is used as a natural diuretic. It also contains potassium which helps prevent electrolyte imbalance commonly associated with pharmaceutical diuretics. Which is good for me, because I believe the last time I completed I had issue with my electrolyte balance.
I have another one on one this morning with one of my Managers so I better get going and get prepped. Have a great day and see you back here tomorrow for my last blog before my show!
Cheers,
Nke
