The Transformation Journals

Weight is up about ten pounds.  I know all of this is not muscle.  Some of it is I am sure.  I also know that the last several weeks my training has not been what I want it to be and my diet has not been as clean as it should be.  School is part of the cause, but I can’t blame it all on that.  I have just been tired and stressed and apathetic.  It is a circle that I am trying to not let become too vicious.  A couple more weeks and then a break.  I will get things back on track then.

More later.  Be well and safe.  ~!~

Yes I get these too…

idee fixe (noun) [ee-day-FEEKS]

A fixed idea that becomes an obsession.

Too much of a good thing?…as usual early morning random ponderings…Be well and safe.  ~!~

I am sure many have seen or heard this one before.

Do not go where the path may lead; go instead where there is no path and leave a trail. ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

Someone put up a Waffle House calendar up in the office.  It talks about healthy lifestyles.  Ummmm?  I just noticed that Waffle House has a job position "Health and Fitness Expert".  Who came up with double order scattered, smothered, covered, chunked, topped, diced, etc…romped on stomped on already chomped on hashbrowns?!?!?

Be well and safe.  ~!~

School is really wreaking havoc with my workouts.  I am really beginning to feel the effects of it.  I am tired and irritable more than I usually am.  The irritablity, along with aggitation, is one of the side affects of a medication I am on (yes it sucks) and it is exacerbated by not getting to the gym.  I have school three nights a week and two online classes.  Work every other weekend and now labs/clinicals on weekends too.  Work is 12 hour shifts.  So, enough whining and no thanks, I’ll pass on the cheese with my whine for now as I am in the middle of a vanilla and rootbeer float flavored shake.  I am trying to get in two workouts a week and for now cardio is more often than not on hold.  I just need to make it until mid May.  I will have a couple weeks off before the next semester starts in June and I am going out of town somewhere. No work, no school, no anything.  School will go to class two nights a week and one online class. Work and clinicals/labs will still be the same but I should be able to get in two a week with cardio and maybe even three a week.  Okay, I feel a little better now.  Thanks for putting up with the venting and the ranting.  More later (hopefully not more venting and ranting).  Be well and safe.  ~!~
