I thought Monday’s “Insanity – Fit Test” work out was bad….this morning I had to hold onto my bathroom wall and sink countertop just to lower myself onto the toilet to pee. Then the same to push myself back up. I am in that much pain. More aspirin today for the pain (and a few more throughout day).
After work and my visiting rounds last night, I got home about 9pm and pushed myself to do the workout and I am paying for it today. Tonight I am going to push forward and move onto the first dvd. I listened more intently (since during Monday’s work out I was heavy breathing and grunting so much, I missed a good portion of what the instructions were) and found that the Fit Test is to be done the first time, you mark your reps down and then move onto the next dvd, do awhile and come back to the Fit Test again and see if you have progressed.
I am NOT looking forward to it. But without trying, I will not know if I can do it or not. The Fit Test is about 25 minutes long, from what I can gather the next dvd’s workout is 40 minutes long (I’ll verify that while doing it tonight).
Today’s Meals
Breakfast: Chobani non fat blood orange yogurt, tea, 2 HB egg whites
Lunch: 1 grilled chicken cutlet, 2 slices Boars head 3 pepper cheese (it’s new and delicious), 1 cup sliced cucumbers
Dinner: 1 cheese burger (no roll), large side salad, pickles and ½ cup applesauce
Snack: 1 cup Jello fat free chocolate pudding (after workout)
Good food day, still wearing the patch. I actually find I am not as hungry – WEIRD….not sure if the patch or as I said yesterday me just getting back into the eating better groove.
So happy it’s Wednesday and half the work week is done. Looking forward to weekend (wishing it was a long weekend)!
I hope your week is going well and you are making your own progress!
Have a FANTASTIC NIGHT!!!!
Jill,
I've had three knee surgeries, but never LOCKED knees, that sounds painful!!! AND what is versa climber?? (I will have to look that up)
So you feel my pain as you have had the same too!! What the hell are we doing to ourselves?? I like trying new things - but I must be nuts with this INSANITY..but I will plug away and see what happens, either I will conquer it or it will conquer me! Hope you are doing well! Thank you for your kind notes and prayers through my sisters ordeal. It's been rough and I think this is why I am pushing myself so hard, just trying to numb the pain and keep my mind busy. Thank you so much! It's great to have a friend like you to commiserate with!!!!
Love Rene

OMG - I know that pain. Once I sat on the toilet to pee and had to HAUL myself up by hanging on the sink and pulling up. This was after several weeks of running, versa climber sets and other stuff.
My knees were LOCKED. No long term damage though.
Hang in there, baby. You're an inspiration.
