I finally finished moving everything to my new house, I am so happy to be done with that! of course I still have to finish making my new home pretty and put everything away but the big stuff is done. It took me 5 days of moving!!!

I was planning to continue most, if not all of my workouts during the move but my body was completely exhausted from moving big furniture and I was mentally exhausted from the stress. So I did day 1 of week 3 and none of the others after that. So this week I will be repeating week 3 and then moving on to week 4 after that.

My diet wasn't great last week either. It wasn't so much the food I was eating that was bad, but I was drinking all my calories! I wanted caffeine for the sleep deprivation so coffee and soda was my thing. Starbucks was my best friend and worst enemy last week.

Of course I felt disgusting the whole time, like I was gaining a pound per day. I had no energy and I felt so guilty that I wasn't working out. The stress along with the guilt was making me sooo cranky and it was taking a toll on me and my husband (LOL poor thing). I couldn't wait to press play again!

Today was day one of week 3 part 2 :) and it was great! I finally had the t.v. plugged in and I had my dumbells and I was ready to go. I realized that my pullup bar was still at the old house so I did arms and shoulders instead of chest and back, and of course arms and shoulders is my favorite one! I noticed that I did better than I ever have before. I don't know if it's the fact that I wanted to get back into it so bad or if it's the whole "rest week" thing to give your muscles a chance to heal....I don't know...but I felt like I was killing that workout! I wasn't feeling the burn till about rep #16, so I was doing 20+ reps on mostly everything (I think it's time to go up in weight on the dumbells). And with the ARX I got through to scissors without a break, normally I'm already taking a break after bycicles. I was able to do the oblique V thingy with no problem, of course I felt the burn but I did all reps with no modifications! I was so proud of myself!!!

So this stuff really is working :). I'm so happy to be back on track and to be in my new home! I knew this move was happening soon and I knew it was going to interfere with my workouts, I was even expecting to skip a day or two of workouts but I never thought it was going to get in the way of 5 days!!! Moving is a lot tougher than I expected and I don't want to do it again for a long time. Either way, I'm glad it's over and I'm glad I can continue to go forward now. Tomorrow I have a date with Plyos...EEEESH!!!

If you read all this babbling you deserved a nice, fresh out of the oven, chocolate chip cookie! :)
