Thanksgiving is over and I still have a lot of chicken leftover. I didn't work out as much last week as I probably should have, but I DID go on Saturday. Sunday left me with a headache that petty much knocked me out and I spent most of the day curled up in my dark bedroom miserable; even after taking headache medicine. So that didn't happen. Yesterday I was just being flat out lazy. Regardless, I think I did pretty well over the weekend; checked my weight this morning and I haven't gained any more weight, which is pretty great!
So now that I'm over the post-thanksgiving what I should have dones and what I dids, there's another topic that I've just come across and wanted to write about. That dread time of the month. Mine's started today and while it's not really bad yet, I know in a few hours I'm probably going to be doubled over in pain. How does one keep up motivation to work out when you're cramping badly and don't even really want to move?
I found a few articles online about maintaining your weight loss motivation during your period. Mostly the refer to resisting cravings, drinking a lot of water, and making sure to move around. Keeping to low impact and light workouts on the worst days. So, I'm going to try and do this... Admittedly, I'm drinking a mocha today (sweet craving), but I had it made with soy instead of whole milk. So we'll see how this goes, if I can keep up momentum while not feeling great.
