Can you say “exhausted?”

I don’t think I know the true meaning of exhausted because I don’t have kids, but today I can say that I am very tired. Since sleep is a HUGE part of weight loss, I will be going to bed early tonight (and I’m locking our kittens out of the room!)

I still managaged to get up and go to our Red Shift Fitness Bootcamp this morning. The workout was awesome and definitely helped to wake me up. I didn’t get any video of it, and it’s going to be tough to explain all the things we did, so I’ll keep it simple.

Today, after we warmed up, Kat kept us moving without a break for 40 minutes straight. We did longer, less intense sets (like 3 minute jog or side shuffles) mixed with powerful bursts for 30seconds to 1 minute (like jump squats, jump rope, plyo box jumps, and stairs). This type of workout burns insane amount of calories and touches on all the different energy systems of the body, from aerobic, to anaerobic, to glycolosis.

Not much to share today. After the killer bootcamp workout and then training a few clients, I went home and have been sitting on my butt working all day and night. (it’s 10:44pm and I’m finally deciding to call it a day) Sitting for so long makes me feel like a bum….how do people do it?

Food:

Pre/Post workout: Muscle Milk

Breakfast: Same ole’ same ole’…why does it have to taste so damn good?

Lunch: Same big ole’ salad from yesterday with a ton of veggies and chicken.

Dinner: Salmon, broccoli/cauliflower with a little assiago cheese, bowl of veggie soup

Right now: Now I’ve stayed up too late, it’s 11pm, and I need a little something to eat before I go to bed. hmmm…I think I’ll have a little bit of cottage cheese.

Pretty boring today…but tomorrow will be a whole different story! Miguel and I are heading up to San Francisco for his company party and staying the weekend. I know for sure I’m going to enjoy a glass of wine…not sure about dessert. What do you think? Should I choose one or the other?
