Well, holy hell, I am back haha! And what a mess I am (physically)!
A brief update on life. I started a new job two weeks ago that is going fabulous. I have an awesome work schedule, working Mon-Thurs 730am-530pm. And I am making WAY more money than I used to. Plus I am just happy to be back to grooming again. It's really the perfect job for me, it just took some time off from it for me to realize it.
An update on the health front. I found out that I have psoriasis after battling with yucky skin issues for the past couple of years. I go tanning twice a week and it has helped MAJORLY, my skin is almost completely cleared up and I'm not scratching nonstop anymore. I'm still waiting on my next doctors appointment on April 25 to get some other stuff sorted out. I had an abnormal pap back in January so I get to go in and get some biopsies and other non-fun things done in a couple weeks.
Ok, so onto the physical stuff...
HUGE WORD OF ADVICE: Do NOT go from working out really hard and eating extremely clean and then switch straight to doing nothing and eating whatever you feel like. I learned a huge hard lesson. In the past two months I gained 19 pounds and am now sitting at 149, eek. Major EEK!
So! Got together with Rich today to kick things back off and did a little leg workout. It was rough, I was a mess. The combo of not eating soon enough before working out and not having worked out in 2 months really hit me hard and I was dizzy and felt like puking pretty much the whole time. So, he took it easy on me, though I still can feel I'm going to be sore the next couple of days.
Today we did:
A1 High stance leg press
A2 Step ups
Sumo squats
Walking lunges
Lying leg curls
Standing calf raises
A little bit of ab work (was feeling awful at the end)
New workout plan for getting back into it:
Sunday: Off
Monday: Back/Chest
Tuesday: Cardio
Wednesday: Shoulders/Arms
Thursday: Cardio
Friday: Legs/Calves/Abs
Saturday: Cardio
