The second day is the worst.....

I hope everyone had a great Valentines day!  I had no chocolates on my Valentines but hanging out with my husband having dinner and watching The Perks of Being a Wallflower was better than chocolates :)
Well after training with my trainer on Wednesday I have been pretty sore.  On Thursday I was busy cleaning and organizing the house and my legs were sore enough to be pretty uncomfortable.  Stairs were not my friend and I cursed when I dropped something knowing I would have to reach down and pick it up.  Well today is a little worse.  A little more sore, I'm still able to walk without looking like a zombie, but sitting down is a B word.  I didn't go to the gym yesterday, but I will be headed there today and incorporating some non-weighted ab and core strengthening per my coach's orders.  AND I need to start my water gallon challenge each day, this is going to take some serious focus.  I don't know about anyone else out there in the world but I go through my day thinking "I drink plenty of water" and the truth is I don't drink enough water for what I need to be doing.  There was a day in my life when I drank nothing but diet cokes, seriously.....I'm not kidding.  I have no idea how my body even functioned!  I was always busy at work, always on the go and never planned my meals.  My main nutrition I swear was freakin' chocolate, candy, popcorn and diet coke.  I had unhealthy food around me all the time, I enjoyed lunch with my co-workers and there is no way I was getting salads, bacon cheeseburgers for me!!  French fries?  Um...is that even a question...hell yes I want french fries!!!   Plenty of salt and plenty of ketchup.  What was I thinking?  I was so unhappy with myself and I think about what a waste of my life it was to be so irresponsible with what I'm eating just creating a cycle that was going no where.  But hindsight is 20/20 so learn and move on to other things with what I already know.  So I'm planning on working through this soreness today because we are going on a snowboarding/ski trip this weekend!!  I'm pretty excited about it!  I know it's going to be a little more painful because I'm already sore but hopefully the snow is soft so my falls won't hurt as bad :)  Welp I'm going to get my act together and start doing something today (because it's my job to pack up the ski equipment today for both my husband and myself, no pressure :)  I hope everyone has a great day whether it's working out, working, spending time with family or friends, doing something that you love,  or if you are having a bad day I hope it gets better!!

Cheers,
Ash
