My body started aching when we put a movie in last night around 8. We watched Silent Hill Revelations which was meh. I wanted to change it to Life of Pi 20 minutes in cause I was bored but Daniel wanted to watch the whole thing. Ah well. Don't really know what I was expecting with it.
Anywho..had a rough time sleeping last night. Even after I had some Sleepy Time Tea. My body was super achy and I usually move around a lot when I sleep so every time I did, it hurt.
That's usually how it goes though. For the first week you are really, really sore. It passes the more you do it though. The soreness is replaced with a new sense of strength. It's hard to explain. At least that is the way my body works. I'm pretty lucky that my body will quickly adapt to physical activity.
I forgot to mention in yesterday's post that after my first real workout..Plyometric Cardio Circuit..I almost actually puked. I had been proud to say that throughout my first run..I never puked. I had to stop the video with only EIGHT minutes left to run to use the bathroom which turned into me positioning myself to get ready to puke. You know that flushed, prickly feeling you get right before it? Yeah..
BUT
I tried something different this time. I changed positions on the floor and just sat there and closed my eyes and started to attempt to meditate. That's right...right on the bathroom floor. I cleared my mind of everything I was thinking about. The workout. Bills. Stress. Throwing up. Especially throwing up. Took deep breaths and just sat there for a few minutes. Eventually the feeling completely went away and I was standing and ready to finish my last eight minutes. And I did! :) I know it sounds a little silly but it worked.
