Buffy Buffington gets Buffer

Wednesday, I did hams/glutes/calves, and, I gotta be honest, I’m seriously disappointed in Buffy Buffington!  First, I just felt disconnected from the entire workout.  Second, I have zero, zilch, nada DOMS (except in my calves)!!  Here’s a breakdown of my workout:

Wednesday, 4/22:

ATG BB Squats - 3 x 12

SLDL - 3 x 12

1-leg DL w/ med ball - 3 x 10

Ham curl on stability ball - 3 x 12

Weighted Hyperextension to kneel - 3 x 10

Standing calf raise - 3 x 12, 10, 10

My diet on Wednesday was great.  Mood was "eh".  Just could not get into my workout.  Didn’t work up much of a sweat and could not get my mind in the muscle.  Not sure what the dealio was. 

Today, 4/23, took off because I had an early DDS appointment, which ended up being a bust.  I was supposed to get a root canal, but come to find out, I don’t need a root canal at all!  Instead, it appears that the last time a root canal was performed, a teensy-weensy piece of an instrument broke off inside my gum and that’s what is causing me the occasional infections!  Now, I have to have my gums cut open and the endo has to root around in there to find that lil sucker.  Too bad the statute of limitations has run.  I’m not litigious, but c’mon!!  I have had 4 years of monthly pain and infection!!

My diet today has been right on, except I’m under on my calories.  I need a snack!

Tomorrow, 4/24, I’m hitting my legs again!  Let’s call it "All Lunges All The Time"!  DOMS fo’ sho’!!  Then, it’s party time.  My husband was laid off about a month ago, but he has just accepted a fantastic offer with a new company - he starts May 4! 

Oh, and I’m officially down a size in jeans/pants!  Not "in between sizes" anymore!  That, my friends, puts a chick in a GREAT mood!
