artisticallyChaotic's Strife Log

[artisticallyChaotic]

Been a few days since I posted anything. Mainly because I've been kinda busy at home helping out the folks ^^; Now to get down to business!

 

I have a few links to share (though I'll also put them in my signature as well). So feel free to stalk them

This one is to my workout log: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1QbSxvj_MMOpWjm4mDyA4rn2DU0UAMCEH2yDMyKaKhcQ/edit?usp=sharing

And the other one is to my MFP food diary: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/food/diary/turntechBiologist

 

Monday was an excellent day when I first started the Academy's Recruit workout! Though I was only able to complete 2 rounds of it and that was it. And I'm still a bit sore from it, but I'm okay with that. I did my warm-ups and cool-downs like I was supposed to, so I excepted to still be kinda sore. I'm not comfortable with the walking DVD program I do now. I used to be fine with it, but now I'm not. And it'll seem a bit dumb, but I'm not comfortable walking around the park near my house anymore. Too many shady cars parking  on the side street near it, plus I've had some issues there when I've tried walking around the entire park, mostly when it comes to stray dogs. So I don't want to deal with that. I can't walk around my backyard because it's just one short straight path and back (I should take a picture so show what I have to deal with XD). Plus, we have dogs roaming around, and I don't want them jumping around on me when I'm trying to exercise. So I guess it's just walking back and forth in the house? I don't know, I'll have to find a park I can go to with no problems. I ate pretty good on Monday I believe.

 

Tuesday was just completely boring (and feeling very sore). I didn't get to go for a 30 minute walk like I wanted to because I had to find some nice clothes for Friday (my graduation ). So I was on my feet, but it was still really boring. Especially when I thought we were only going to one (or two) stores and that was it, but then we went to another one (augh!).It's just really uncomfortable going into a store with clothes you already know won't fit you :/ But I won't let that discourage me! I was just really bored, so I called up a friend to help me keep my sanity. I ate very well Tuesday except for dinner. We had Taco Bell for dinner, but I'm not letting that get me off track!

 

I may post about Wednesday either later on or tomorrow

Today was awesome! Doing the customized warm-up from NFA, I was able to tolerate the 15-minute walk DVD more than I normally do So that made me really happy! The "warm-up" on the DVD never helped, and always made my calves feel like they were gonna explode. Anyways, then I moved onto the recruit workout again. I always forgot how awesome it felt afterwards once I finished and did my stretch routine. I ate really good as well. I had a little more self-control than I did the previous week.

 

October 2nd, 2014

Did an experimental thing where I did the NFA warm-up and then did the 15-minute walk DVD, and I was able to tolerate it still. I just had a minor interruption from my school calling me about graduation, but I finished strong! Did my stretches (and they make me feel like $1,000,000) and had to whip together something to eat because I was STARVING! Ate pretty good today, but didn't have meat because we didn't have anything meaty, plus I felt too lazy to cook I still have time so maybe I could try cooking something now.
