More like Muscle Failure!

OMG! What was I thinking? So, I have been wanting to go to the classes that MountainSide Fitness offers, and what do I do? I pick THE hardest class! I made Rob go with me, so it was much easier to keep motivated even though i wanted to walk out so many times. Ha!

I thought it was going to be a “toning” class, as in lifting light weights for many reps. NOPE! It was like doing a Jillian Michaels get ripped in 30 DVD only for an HOUR! The first 30 min were just squats and lunges, which seemed like it was never going to end. EVER! The rest of the 30 min was arm work and core, which I am much better at, because it seems that I have ZERO leg strength.  I know this because I am sitting here three days later still in pain, and it kills when I sit down or stand up.

Guess what? I am going back on Sunday! Especially since I had Monday and Tuesday off from the Gym, mainly due to Monday having last minute Mouth Surgery (ok, I had four fillings replaced and one of them had a cavity, but still I feel like I was punched in the face)  and Tuesday was a “me” evening coming in my next post =) Oh and another reason I want to continue to do squats? Well I am pretty sure you saw the MTV VMA’s…. enough said. 

Fuel the Hatred

Meh. Pretty much sums up today. I am so tired and just really out of if. I really could use a long vacation or a hot bath , by myself. It the little things in life you forget to appreciate in life before you have children. I wanted to take a bath last night and just relax, but a 22 month old does not understand “mama needs alone time”, no she proceeds to strip down and get in.  ugh… I just want a bath. Oh well.

So in my new Fitness Magazine, with Jillian Michaels on the cover, there was this great 45 min walker/fat burn workout. I could def do it, because the speeds are manageable, but the 45 min is not just right now. I can commit to 30 min max at night, so I calculated the difference in the minutes and broke it down, then multiplied the remaining minutes and calculated the average between them: ET VOILA! I broke it down to 30 min! NERD ALERT! God I felt like my brother for a second!  Anyway so here is the picture for all you fat burning fools! Wanna do it with me?

I am still going to do the Jillian Michaels’ Get Ripped in 30 (RIP30)… umm I am starting to see a trend….She is pretty hot. Anyway, I was looking through old pictures of me in college and I started getting sad! WHAT THE HELL DID I DO TO MYSELF?

I legitimately hate myself. And at this point it is a good thing! Because like Fat Amy from Pitch Perfect (Favorite Movie), I am going to keep something behind my ear to “fuel the hatred” . JK well I will keep a picture everywhere! Ugh I just want to be pretty again, and healthy. Even if I don’t get to that weight! I did some pretty dangerous stuff to get that thin and stay that thin. (like not eating at all, rice and just Gatorade just to name a few) I am going to motivate myself with the people around me like,  by big Sis (from Chio) Kell! She has always been fit and really has been pushing herself, and I want to be like that. I am trying so hard not to get discouraged, but sometimes it just sucks.
