Victory is Mine! Sorta...
Ok, so I said that today I was going to try and work out and I actually did. I spent five minutes on my work out ball warming up and doing some push ups and sit ups, then I used my weight ball, and then I watched an ab video and then I did a little bit of belly dancing to cool down. It wasn't much, but at least I got some done. My shoes will hopefully be here tomorrow so I can start running, and my protein shake bottle doesn't smell nearly as funky anymore. It just kinda smells like an older shake but doesn't smell bad... If that even makes any sense at all. So starting tomorrow I drink the protein shake and hopefully I will be able to go for a short run. After working with the weight and ball today I realized that I really did need a little bit more equipment. My elbow kept popping as I was using the weight ball which to me means its too heavy and I need to work up to it so I have to go get a couple of smaller weights to life. I need a yoga mat so my knees aren't killed by sitting on the floor and so I can do some yoga poses. And a resistance band would also be nice to get some more arm work in. I am a complete wimp I couldn't do more than five sit ups, my stomach cramped and hurt and I know that's a good sign but my back is killing me! I don't know if I did something wrong or if its just my muscles being stretched out. I think I definitely need a second protein shake bottle, so when one is dirty I can still use it since I have to use it three times one day and once every other day. I bought the iPod holder so I can go out running and have music to listen to and I am really excited to use it. I hope it works correctly. And yeah, there is the update. See I did sorta win, at least I worked out a little, now I need to do the protein shakes and then I am good. Whoo I feel good, minus the back, the back is in pain.
