Post-Flu

I had the stomach flu all weekend, therefore didn't workout, although I did go for a little hike on Saturday. I was feeling 90% better yesterday, but thought that I should give myself one day to make sure that I was really better before I jumped back into the world of fitness. So this morning I popped in my 30DS dvd and started it up. Halfway through the warm up I gave up because I had no motivation, and was already getting tired. I complained to my husband that I just didn't have it in me, and he said that I should do it anyway. I knew that if I didn't do it during N's morning nap, there was no way it was going to happen at any other point today. So I went back downstairs and started it back up. It was TOUGH, but I made it through the whole thing. Not working out for 4 days is bad enough to come back from, but when you've got malnutrition during those 4 days as well, it makes it really hard. But I figure I might as well come back strong instead of taking another week as an excuse of "recovering".

Breakfast: Hot chocolate and whole wheat toast (testing my stomach)
Post workout: Protein Shake
Lunch: Pork chop, rice & black beans
Dinner: chicken fajitas
