Pleasant Surprise

I woke up this morning very early (3:30am) and could not fall back asleep. After watching a few episodes of Family Matters (Don't judge me lol), I decided the time could be better spent at the gym, so I went. I had been telling myself since the beginning of the challenge that I was gonna hit the gym in the mornings, but I never managed to make it. I don't know what came over me this morning, but I went in and did cardio for 45 min. It was a pleasant surprise and I'm happy with myself. I am, however, worried that I'll be sore for my workout with David this evening... yikes!

I saw Tori (http://tori-ellis.blogspot.com) at the gym this morning and she was happy as usual. I swear Jamie (http://jamiebatten.blogspot.com) and Tori are the happiest people I know lol. I'm not really a group person, but those two are so positive and encouraging, it's hard to be reclusive. I weighed myself when I got to the gym today and was SHOCKED to find that I'm 3 lbs heavier than I was Monday. WTH!!! I'm not sure what happened there, but it was a definite motivator for me to push harder this morning.

I finally went to Smoothie King and got some protein mix, a multi-vitamin and some kind of recovery mix that's supposed to help your body recover more quickly after workouts. I'm excited about all 3 and I will let you know how they work. Tom owns the Smoothie King from which I purchased those items, and he knows A LOT. He gave me some great advice and I'm glad i have him as another resource.

Well, it's time to get my day started. Until next time....

Love more, Laugh a lot, Live healthily.
