boring update
I am so not interested in being at work today. *sigh* I keep checking the clock to see if it's time for a lunch break.
I have been incredibly sloth-like over the last two months. As a result I have gained some weight and my pants are snugger than I'd like. So Monday I dragged myself out of bed in the morning to workout and only managed 16 minutes of a cardio workout before I was wiped out. *headdesk* Not good. Yesterday morning I stayed in bed with cramps, but today I got up again and this time I managed 27 minutes of yoga. I stopped when the video I was doing made the switch to a yoga/pilates ab workout. I just looked at the screen and said, "No. Not today. No fucking way." But I figure I'm doing something, right? I'm trying. My goal on the cardio workout is to get a little bit farther next time. Just a little more each day until I'm able to do the whole thing, because I really should be able to do the whole thing.
The weird thing with the workouts too is that I can hike, I can do long walks with the dogs, whatever. So I'm not totally out of shape. I feel confident going into the field for a SAR mission, but I have always sucked at video/classroom workouts. That said, 16 minutes of cardio is pathetic and I can do better. I WILL do better.
I've been fiddling more with my diet and managing to increase my fruits and vegetables, which is good. And I feel good about that, I just wish the scale would better reflect that. (I know, I know... stick with the healthy eating and get my ass moving and I'll be fine. I'm just in that rut right now.)

In other news... I don't really have any other news. My life is boring right now. I'm not going to complain about that. Boring means no drama and there's nothing wrong with that.
