Day 45

I woke up feeling sick again...sore throat...barely have a voice...ugghhh!  Even thought I don't feel well I have to work out really hard today because of yesterday's diet cheats.  Wish I felt better...today is going to be tough.  I hope everyone had a great Valentine's with their loves...I did!  What's better than pretty roses, jewelry, a fantastic meal, dessert, wine, a great movie, and a night spent with those you love the most?  Nothing!  So back to the real world...gotta work hard today.

Day 45

Motivation for the day:

Breakfast

1 serv of oatmeal with cinnamon and splenda, 1.5 cups of coffee with 2.5 tbsp sugar- free creamer, and water

Exercise for the day:

5 Factor Friday Workout (90 seated shoulder press with 20 lb dbs, 90 db pullovers with one 20 lb db, 90 upper- body twists)

So today did not go as I had planned at all.  I got through my lifting and ab workouts and was then going to get on the elliptical...during my lifting I kept feeling really sick to my stomach...when I was finally done I actually threw up a little bit.  I don't have a fever but I think that the drainage from my nose is causing the sore throat and also caused my nausea.  I thought I would feel better after I ate lunch but nope...my stomach is still killing me...so I am skipping my cardio for today (pretty much the last thing I wanted to do after last night's meal...but there is no way I can do it right now).  I am going to have to either go without and be shy a cardio day, or do my cardio tomorrow and full workout (lifting and cardio) on Sunday with no day off this weekend...I will just have to see how I feel and go by that.  But the only plus side to feeling like shit is that I am not hungry and my caloric intake for the day so far is extremely low.
