Low carb kinda = Low fun
So it's been a while since my last post. It was generally insane with the end of the school year, and then my mom had surgery in Ohio at the end of the month. Talk about a busy June! Luckily, everything went well with both the end of the year & my mom's surgery. I need to drive to NY then to OH this week to pick her up and bring her back to her home in NY. That'll be exhausting, because we'll have to stop every hour (it's about a 10 hour trip.. or should I say it'll become like a 13 hour trip!!). That's okay though, ya gotta do what ya gotta do.
I read an ad online from a local trainer and it sounded pretty good. I decided to go in for my "free trial offer". The offer was that they'd assess me for free, and design a beginning program for me with 2 free workouts, to see if I liked them- no charges, no nothing. I like the guy they paired me up with, and tonight is my 2nd free workout. The workout he created, while seemingly simple? Kicks my butt!! I was *shocked* to see just how sore I was (esp the first time) on this workout. Oy! I think I'm going to sign up with them and give it a go, but I need to talk with them tonight because of my impending trip to NY for 1-2 weeks (ugh!).. We'll see!
Part of their program, though, is Green Faces- the eating portion. This concerns me a bit, because I'm vegetarian, and I'm very carb dependent. It's amazing (and sad) how carb dependent I am!!! I am trying to follow their eating guidelines at the moment, but it's pretty hard. I don't know if I'm going to be able to cut out carbs pretty much completely for the first 3 weeks like they say to, but I'm just going to make a healthy effort to limit my consumption, ya know?? I want to see results, but I'm not going to do anything crazy or unhealthy. I'll update soon when I see how it's going!!
Alright, well, this post was longer than I intended! I'm gonna head out to run some errands and stop and my fave little dive diner for an omelette, as I'm hungry! And my roommate is eating pizza for breakfast, which, for the record, is soooo unfair! :)
