Feeling worn out.
Okay so I have just pulled almost 40 hours of work in a little over 3 days. I work as a server so I am constantly on my feet and constantly moving. I said that I would also work out, but I just haven't had the time, let alone the energy. After standing on my feet for 12 hour shifts, my feet hurt to bad to go for a long walk let alone anything else, I'm lucky I have found time to sleep and shower. I also fell at work the other day and slightly fractured my tailbone. But I am a tough woman, and I am still working, it just hurts to squat and bend over, so working out will be tough. I pull another double shift tomorrow and work til 5 on wednesday and thankfully I am off on Turkey Day. I am back to work on Friday for another double shift probably 10am - 10pm and 12pm-10pm on Saturday, then 11-5 on Sunday and Monday will be from 11-7 and tuesday 10-4. So I am definitely getting some major cardio in....
Out side of being sore from my tailbone, feet and legs, I will be getting back into my workout routine. A co-worker of mine decided that she and I will be walking on our 1 hour lunches and after work on days when we get off between 4-6, throughout the holidays. I peeked at the scale today and was down by another 3 pounds. I have been drinking nothing but water, and just getting a quick glass at work seems like a small joy and in working so many hours all I have time to drink is an 8oz glass of water here and there, so I have also increased my water intake. Unfortunately I have also caved and had a few mountain dews. (my guilty little pleasure) But I am not drinkin as much of that as I used to, (6-8 20oz bottles a day) So one here in there is still good for me.
Hope all is going well..... I will post again as soon as I get a few moments to catch my breath. LOL
