High as a Kite

Okay, I am not REALLY high as a kite...at least not what you're thinking. My reference is in part a little nod to my new favorite show, Weeds....thank you Netflix for offering the best Showtime shows on instant play through my XBox!! However, high as a kite is literally how I felt when I left the gym. I was on an adrenaline high from how fabulous I felt today. I have a love/hate relationship with cardio, but I ADORE strength training. If I could get amazing results by only lifting weights...it's all I would ever do. But you can't so there you go.

I did a 30 minute double circuit on the machines, focusing mainly on my upper body and then finished up with 20 minutes on the elliptical. I felt really good after 20 minutes and could have continued, but it was a time thing with my childcare hours, so I left.

Diet is getting there....slowly but surely. I am horrible about thinking that if I worked out today I can afford to eat some crap food here and there....NOT TRUE. But oh so good :) Other than that, this heat has been killer. I have been fine in the morning but by late afternoon am dealing with a headache daily. I am trying to keep hydrated but I think this heat is more than I can handle. I will be more than ready for it to break and give myself and my air conditioner a little reprieve.
