Bad Mood.

I'm not even sure why.  Nothing happened.  Grrr.

Work has been crazy busy lately.  It's possible that's getting on my nerves, but that aint anything new.

Could be PMS.  Could be that I'm just a snot.  Could be.

I have a slight lower back pain that's kind of embarassing, which is why I haven't mentioned it.  It's easing up now.  Maybe that was part of it.

In any case, I was not in the mood to go to Boot Camp tonight.  In fact, I had already made up my mind to skip it & take today as a rest day.

Class started at 7.  At 6:52, I was still on my couch.  In full rage mode. Yeah, proly the stupid PMS.  This is the week for it.

At 6:52, I decided that if I didn't go, I'd feel like a loser slob who spends her time on the couch, regretting that she hadn't gone when she could've gone & gotten it over with.

No one ever regrets getting in a workout.

As usual, I was running late.  As usual, I forgot to bring my HRM with me.  It probably wouldn't have mattered, with how I was feeling.

I was still in no mood.  I got to hit things tonight, which helped a bit.  What didn't help is that I practically tore this poor guy's head off for no reason.  He didn't even say anything out of line, it was just the seed that tipped the scale.

I felt like a jerk immediately after, and I apologized to him.  He was good about it, he's the kind of guy that lets stupid shit slide off his back and then is over it.  I need to be more like that.

I could barely muster a smile.

I'm surprised I even took a pic.  I look like a hot mess.  Or I just smoked something illegal.  Shrug.

More back & upper body today.  My back, bis & tris were already sore from yesterday.  Today will make them want to scream.  Lots of pushups, pull ups, reverse flys, punching bags, and more stuff.

I talked to a good buddy of mine, and he talked me out of my bad mood.  Or down from it, as the case may be.  Thanks, man!

I'll be better tomorrow.  I'm already feeling better as it is.  I just need to get over myself and realize a few things.  Like how a lot of people would kill to be "only" 19 pounds from goal weight.  Or that they would love to be able to workout the way I do.  Or that they would love to have arm muscles and back muscles like mine.

I'm doing pretty good - I just need to remember to keep my eyes on the prize.  It's within shooting distance.  It's right there.

Tomorrow was supposed to be a rest day, but if the weather isn't too bad, I think I'll hit yoga.  I could use the meditation and the calming effect.

Sorry about the Debbie Downer nonsense.  Chin up.

  3. Im so right there with you! I'm only 20ish pounds from goal too. And I didn't want to workout today but force myself. It's like one day I think I can do it and the next I'm ready to give up! Ugh! You're not alone in this battle!

  5. I know exactly the mood you're talking about...and you don't need a reason. They just happen it seems. Haha, I feel like sh*t on those days and am in check at work to keep myself straight. I suppose it's part of the ride. Some days our patience is better than other days. Whatever it is, you're doing great! Keep it honest, not every day is stellar and that's the truth. :) What is stellar is your honesty with yourself and you're willingness to work through it, no matter how ugly. Very proud of you!

  6. Kelly, I'm PMSing in the worst WAY!! I'm NEVER angry. (Hardly ever.) Except for when I'm cranky, tired and late to start. Should have started two days ago, which only aggravates my pain in my lower back. To top if off, I left my lunch and snacks at home today. Oh well, I will fend for myself with the dining hall at work. I'm not working out, but I will walk. That's about all the energy I have on days like this.

  8. Yup. Sounds like PMS to me and exactly how mine is. It will pass. It will. Seems like several of us are on the same timeline. *sigh* Hopefully no one puts us in a room of a-holes or they are all going DOWN! HA! Be kind to yourself and this will pass.
