One Thing After Another

No, I'm not slacking. Well, not intentionally anyway. First it was 3 weeks of migraine headaches. Now that's getting better and I have a cold.

I'm still studying and doing all the stuff I'm suppose to do but I haven't worked out at all this week due to these ridiculous issues. I'm really not happy about it either. I've never wanted to exercise more in my entire life. My body is screaming at me. It just wants to get up and move and sweat. I find myself day dreaming about going for a run outside or what music I want to listen to while I hang out on the elliptical for an hour or how many reps at what weight I want to lift and how I want to target my ab work a bit more. It's all I can think about. And I'm just so serioulsy frustrated that I'm sick and can't do the stuff right now.

I know it's a good thing. I know it's actually exciting that I've finally reached a point in my fitness where I enjoy and look forward to exercising. It's just still frustrating that I can't do it.

I feel like I'm totally talking to myself right now too. Anyone out there?

Have you had this happen?

Hey I am here! Hang in there you will get better. And it is really neat that you miss exercise now. Take care of your body and it will be back at it in no time and showing you what you can do.

Here!

Sorry to hear you've been ill! I've had a cold this week, too, with congestion in my chest. Today I tackled the Howe Street stairs for 30 minutes. Oh my god, I thought I was gonna die!

Exercise with a migraine, though? How can you? Also, bringing germs to a gym isn't very considerate. Still, it's supposed to be GORGEOUS tomorrow. Maybe you could fit in a walk or light jog depending on your energy level?

Feel better soon!

I've never gotten myself to your level of exercising but I have found myself almost on the verge of tears over not being able to do my super-long walks thanks to the weather & toddler & the need for sleep. Hope you feel better soon!!!
