Tyyger’s BodyBlog

Okay, So I am on here today and I’m looking thru body blogs and bodyspaces, trying to get motivated.  Trying to get back to the place I was 3 months ago.  I had awesome drive, my motivation level was so high.  But I have had trouble getting back to that point.  Laziness, sluggishness(is that a word??), procrastination have all been my friend as of late.  And I know the bottom line is…..IT"S MY OWN FAULT!!  I joined this site to hopefully keep that motivation and I haven’t been on here to even get my daily serviing.  I would get on and put my workouts on the tracker and track my progress.  But even that has gone to the sh!TTer!!  (excuse my french)!!  But I am starting to get really angry with myself and really discouraged.  It should be a cinch since I live with a bodybuilder.  And If I could just rub his arm and get a tiny bit of his determination.  I wouldn’t be having this conversation with myself.  But alas, I cannot do that.  It’s about me and what I need to do.  I wish it were so easy, but it’s not.  I was looking at a particulate bodyspace page and this lady’s body is awesome…. It looks as thought she has no body fat at all, but I’m sure she does, I’m not expert.  But to get halfway to where she is… would be a real accomplishment for me.  I don’t want to be 125lbs, I just want to lose some weight and tone myself up.  I’ve started the process, I just need add on and continue the fight. 

Okay so I’ve been loafing now for about amonth.  Going to the gym here and there.  My eating hasn’t been too bad, but not as well it should be.  So I’m like okay, got this new product I wanted to try called Melt down… so I’m psyched for the week.  Went to the gym on Tuesday and tried this circuit training a friend told me about.  It’s with weights, and you work about 3-4 body parts in a circuit.  It’s truly like cardio.  A sista was breathing hard!!! LOL!!  After this, I focused on my legs.  Did some squats and leg presses.  Then switched to my hammies.  Then on to Calves.  Well I thought since I’m toughing it out I might as well go for the stairs.  It’s an excercise where I do calf raises on the stairs.  There are about 10 steps and a plaform and then 10 more to get to the cardio machines upstairs.  I only did the first ten and instead of 10 reps, I did 8.  You know, slowly getting myself back into things.  I was cool…. when I left the gym.  I wore my thigh high boots to work on Wednesday…. was looking sharp too….. WHY DID I DO THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I got home wednesday afternoon took off my shoes and could not step down on my foot.  My calf was TIGHT, I literally had to walk on my tippy toes… Oh yeh..I OVERDID IT!!!!!!!!!  I soaked last night in the tub and thought that would help.  Even used icey hot.  Got up this morning and could not walk at all!!!!!!!!!!!!  I had to miss a day out of work because I couldn’t get up and get dressed.  I’m laughing about it now, but earlier today, this was no laughing matter.  I’m still sore and unable to walk fully on my whole foot.  But it’s ALOT better than this morning.  At about 2 am I had to crawl to the bathroom…. a sad commentary on my night!!!!  but I have TRULY learned my lesson……. TRUST… no more days like this for me……………………..:)
