Back to the old grind.

Eating wasn't thaaaat bad, but I did eat a bit more than I normally would. We went to the gym on Saturday and I ran for 6 miles on the treadmill and my ankle didn't hurt that much. I didn't do another work out until today. I did 1 hour on the elliptical and it was a bit hard, since I'm feeling kind of achy, tired, sleepy, and my throat hurts a bit. It was a long rough weekend, with lots of fun, drinking, eating, working (unfortunately) and good chilling out time. I always have a good time with Z :).

We're planning a hike to Mt. Aix soon, so I'm going to have to keep the workouts pretty regular. I need to get good shoes and some other stuff, but Z will help me out with that. I can't wait. I never been on an over night hiking trip before, so I'm looking forward to it. I want to see how prepared I can get my body before we go. I want to hold my own weight and enjoy the trip as well, so I better make sure I keep the intensity high, but try not to injure myself before the hike. So excited!

This week is short. 3 days to survive before the weekend. I need to make sure I get my water in, eat clean, and workout for a minimum of an hour per day. I'm going to keep the goals easy so that I set myself up for success this week. I probably won't weigh myself until Saturday morning, since most of this week has been shot as far as watching my intake and what not. I don't want to discourage myself. I'll weighin first thing Saturday morning.

Z gave me a wonderful full body rubdown with lotion last night that was supremely heavenly. I've never experienced that before. He is so spoiling me but I love every minute of it tee hee. I love that man. How can I not? He also took care of packing everything up in the car while he let me sleep off 3 allergy tablets (taken all at the same time). They were knocking me on my kiester (sp?), because stupid me should have only taken 1, but I wasn't listening and I was so itchy, nose was running and raw and I was miserable and wanted it to stop. I slept for a while in the car as well. He's so wonderful to me. I hope I deserve all of this. I'm sure he wouldn't be doing it if he didn't think so, right ;)?

Keep on keeping on...
