End of Week 3!

Body-Hmmm, not sure what was going on last week, but I was much more tired than usual.  I took naps before class, but my body seemed to crave more rest.  This week, I'm going to work on perfecting my form and maintaining a tighter core.  Entering my fourth week, I've noticed that I tend to hold my stomach in more now that my core is getting tighter.  Yeah, the skin is still flabby around it, but I can feel some improvement.  I'm still working on ways to get more stretching in to help my calves out.  I'm still struggling with pain from my butt injury but I still try to do a modified version of the sit-up moves.  My push-up form has improved greatly.  I think I was able to do at least 5 in each set during the workouts.

Learning- This week I learned how vital water is to my body!  When I didn't get enough, I woke up feeling like my tongue felt like sandpaper or my pee was golden like the sun.  I'm going to work on getting in a bottle each morning when I wake up.  This will help flush out an impurities and refresh my body from my night's rest.  Water is the ultimate hydrator.  The funny thing is that I haven't really been drinking anything but water, yet a few occasions, I haven't been able to get my daily amount in.  I'm going to follow Maia's tip of setting my alarm to go off every two hours to ensure I drink a bottom on the regular.   I also learned how hard it is to plan my eating when I'm off on the weekends.  My daily life during the work week is quite structured.  However, on the weekends I'm somewhat of a flower child.  I have to ensure I get my small meals and water in even though I may not be on my regular schedule. 

Goals-  This week, I aspire to try to get a few more workouts in during my week.  Yes, this was last week's goals, but I am still pushing to get this accomplished.  The change of the season is usually a change in my body as I prepare for hibernation, lol but I'm going to push through that.  I'm going to live my life like I did in Detroit, where the weather didn't effect how I lived.  I kept pushing in spite of the sun setting earlier!
