Bummer!

Yesterday was my first day of my 2010 exercise plan in action. I went to the gym and did 40 minutes of weight lifting and then did some mat pilates while I watched TV with my husband. Normally, I would do the actual buns/thighs video, but it got late and I figured I could kill two birds...

There is a lovely soreness in my arms and legs today that makes me super duper proud of my get fit efforts yesterday.

I am so disappointed though, because despite my motivation to get this new workout plan going, I am feeling awful today! I had trouble sleeping last night and felt a cold coming on this morning. Today was one of those days when I was really glad to not be a classroom teacher because I had a big break in my schedule during which I went home and took a little snooze on the couch. Before I went back to school for my afternoon schedule, I took a day time Sudafed. During my 2:00 class I started to feel extremely sick/nauteous and literally thought, oh no, I am going to throw up in the classroom! (If you read one of my recent posts, you may remember my extreme displeasure for vomiting...did you know that there is actually a name for the fear of vomiting??? emetephobia. too funny!)

Anyway, I breathed my way through and left school right after my last class. I went home, ate some bread, sipped some water, and rested up. I am feeling better, but not in any way up for the biking/running on my exercise schedule.

Bummer!

Isn't that always the way...

Well, tomorrow is a national holiday in Germany, so both my husband and I have the day off. Good timing because I would hate to take a sick day two days in after a two week break. Hopefully, I am not sick and getting some rest will help.

On the bright side, my feeling icky results in hubby getting his own dinner and me not having to prepare something.
