Starting my morning with some yummy breakfast to give me some energy for the day. Red Delicious apple with peanut butter and a (second) cup of coffee.
OMG, am I out of shape. After 20 minutes of intervals I reprogrammed the machine to manual and put it on zero resistance. After another 10 minutes I had to get off completely. My knees were aching and the arches of my feet were so sore. This morning I woke up to tight quad muscles and achy knees.
I used to be able to crank out 40-50 minutes of interval training on the elliptical and yesterday I could barely complete 30 minutes! It goes to show that even though I have lost a ton of weight, it is super easy to get out of shape.
I feel pretty good about actually making it to the gym though. The real test will come this week and if I can keep going. I'm off from work today, so I have no reason not to go later this afternoon. My goal for today is to do at least 40 minutes of cardio and an ab workout.
The main thing is that you went! You will get back into the swing of things soon :).
