Feel the Rush

I got my new Zumba Rush in.  It is so completely different from the other one.  I love it though.  It is super fun.  And, the time flies by.  Can't wait to work out again!

We are supposed to do booth sales for Girl Scout Cookies today, but the weather is terrible!  It is cold and rainy.  Not sure I should take 5 kids out in this mess, even for sales.  Well, I better decide soon. 

I haven't been eating right and I can really feel it.  I know I have been eating more calories lately but I have way less energy.  I am back to logging food at least for a while.  It really helps me not just "taste" random calories.  I find that for me, it is the little things that really get me.

Feeling the Burn

What a week we had last week.  Super busy with dr appointments, eyeglasses, working on the house etc.  And through it all, I kept working out. 

I pre ordered the new Zumba Rush for me.  I'm so excited and can't wait to get it.  It looks like lots of fun to get into new routines and unlock new venues.  I know I don't need it but it sure is nice to be spoiled!

And now, for "feeling the burn".  This is a very bad thing!  I decided yesterday to take a shower before church (usually I'm a bath person).  Well, the shower pull thing stuck, so I figured I'll just turn the water off.  Great plan, except that the hot water was on higher than the cold.  We keep our hot water heater set really high!  I, like an idiot, leaned into the water and turned the knobs.  I burned my back so bad that it still hurts.  I can't sit back against furniture, and sleeping last night was difficult.  And, as soon as the hot water hit me I jumped and pulled every muscle in my back and abs.  I can barely move or breath without pain, so at least for today, I will be skipping the workout.  Hopefully, I'll be feeling better tomorrow and will be getting back on track.
