5 weeks since my last Workout

That's right - it's been 5 weeks since I've worked out.  It shows and I have been feeling like a slug.  I have been working late, then got sick and then went on vacation.  Not to mention - it's too cold in the barn.  Today, I made a commitment to myself to get at least 4 workouts in each week.

I can't use 'too cold' as an excuse not to workout anymore.  I am insulating the barn and I can always wear this fancy outfit... warm and practical.  It reminds me of the bunny suit from A Christmas Story!

Tonight's WOD was meant to be easy so that I wouldn't kill myself the first night back.  It was supposed to be a 20 minute AMRAP but turned into 5 rounds.  WHY?  On round 3, I cracked myself in the nose with the bar doing thrusters - OUCH, I'm sure that's going to leave a mark.  And, it's already starting to swell up.  Who does that??

Not only is today my first workout in 5 weeks, but it's also weigh-in Wednesday with Heather, Ash, and Erin.

I haven't been keeping track but I did weigh before going on vacation.  I lost 3.2 pounds in 5 days.  While in Vienna, Austria, I walked and walked and walked.  I averaged 9 miles a day or around 13000 steps.  It was nice to come home and see progress on the scale.  Now I just have to keep that momentum going.  I did good today... tracked all my food at Myfitnesspal.com.  My favorite meal (aside from the hot dogs in Vienna) is the Turkey Burger.  Tonight's creation had horseradish, white cheddar cheese, spinach and a little miracle whip!!

That's all for now.... hope everyone has a great week
