Looking forward to Summer Break!

Where I died this morning.

Tabatas - Wikipedia says they are....  High-intensity interval training (HIIT), also called High-Intensity Intermittent Exercise (HIIE) or sprint interval training (SIT), is an enhanced form of interval training, an exercise strategy alternating periods of short intense anaerobic exercise with less-intense recovery periods. HIIT is a form of cardiovascular exercise. Usual HIIT sessions may vary from 4–30 minutes. These short, intense workouts provide improved athletic capacity and condition, improved glucose metabolism, and improved fat burning.



Ummmm... so I started my first full week of Revolt today.  Last week I was doing mostly the free kickstart.  I missed the first part of the month where she was working on these Tabatas...or shall I call it "who the heck can do this without DYING!"  I struggled through each of the prescribed exercises but in no way did I do it at the speed or duration that she was demonstrating!  Plus the video was a full 45 mins!!!  ugh...oof...and ugh again.  I hurt.  I am supposed to do the Tabatas again on Thursday and Saturday.  hahahaha!  I laugh at the absolutely insane idea that I may EVER keep up with that!

As for food.  I did AWESOME yesterday.  Ate exactly what I was supposed to and drank my entire gallon of water WOOT WOOT, yeah me :)  As a result of my awesomeness I was down to 179 this morning!!!  *happy dance*  So, I shall keep on, keeping on. 

Personal note.  My big lils only have 4 days of school left before summer break!  Today is their "tabloid day" at school, so me and the wee lils are going to head there to watch them after lunch today.  I'm really excited to start summer break.  The kids are so hard to wake up in the morning and I'm looking forward to taking them swimming, boating, to the park and library.  And of course they have squirts camp for 3 days in August, we have 3 family reunions and just getting to stay up late and let them sleep in will be such a treat!

Here's my ode to last summer's body... Bye bye old self, HELLO new self :)
