Yesterday, I was tired and worked late, so instead of going to Krav late, I skipped it and gave my body some time to rest. I was really struggling in class on Wednesday night, so I think I needed it. I did walk at lunch again, though, so I wasn't a total bum.
This morning's nekkid weight: 202.5
Today, I walked again at lunch and went to Krav tonight. I pushed through the exercises as best I could, though I still couldn't keep pace with the rest of the class. I just worked as best I could on the exercises and the actual Krav. After class, my instructor pulled me aside and said "I'm really proud you." He said that I did a really good job today and that my technique is getting good. I can't express how much I appreciate that. Just when I feel like I'm getting nowhere. I really needed that. I told him that I'm praying that someday soon I'll be able to get through one of his classes without having to stop. He just kinda laughed and said "it'll come". I hope it does. I'll just keep doing the best I can in the mean time.
Tonight, I went for a leisurely walk after my dinner/snack (just some slightly heated fresh veggies). The hunger is starting to kick in. It'll be interesting to see how my body handles the next few days. Remember: Sunday through Tuesday is supposed to be shakes only. Shakes. Whoever thought to call them that had a cruel sense of irony.
I'm really proud of you. This is really tough all around but you are handling it beautifully. Some people would be cranky all the time and prone to giving in, but you aren't. And we'll forgive anything on those shake-only days... ;) Just take care of yourself, rest and keep at it. You have shown a tremendous commitment to yourself through all of this. I'm just so happy you are finally starting to see some results. It won't be long before you are noticing your clothes becoming loose. First new pair of pants on me! :-)
ReplyDeleteYou will totally kick butt Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday!
