Today ended week 2 for me. I was so tempted to skip the stretch exercises and just crawl back into bed. Sooo sleepy...
But I persevered. I did all the exercises (only had to pause a couple times due to mat problems) and finished in about an hour. I know these stretches are supposed to help, but my lower back is still feeling sore. Perhaps I'm trying to stretch too far and just overexerting myself?
Tomorrow starts the final week of the first rotation. I'm kinda excited, but a little disappointed at where exactly I stand. I can squeak out a single chin-up, but I still can't do one pull-up (at least without having my foot on something). I'm going to try to not let it bother me, though. I'm still right at the beginning, so I'm adjusting my goals accordingly. (I always hate to lower my goals. It makes it feel like I'm getting a trophy on 'Everyone-Gets-A-Trophy Day'.)
I did feel pretty good driving to work this morning. Usually, my belly hangs over my seat belt, almost completely covering it. Today, that wasn't the case. My appetite also seems to have adjusted to my new activity level. I'm craving more protein (chicken, pork, etc.) and less carbs (break, rice, etc.).
Damnit if I didn't forget to take my multivitamin AGAIN today. That makes three days in a row. I will have to carve it into my arm to take it tonight when I get home from work.
