Yes, you read right. I did back-to-back workouts. I was feeling sore today after those last 2 workouts on Monday and Tuesday. X-Stretch did wonders last time I did it, for easing the discomfort, so I decided to do it again today.

Total push-ups for the workout: 6

Push-up total for today: 66

I'm really feeling good about this week. For the most part, my eating has been right on target (I over did it on the carbs yesterday, a little). I'm getting my water in. I'm remembering to write down everything I am eating. And, most importantly ... I'm exercising! The only negative that I'm seeing about the week is that I haven't done as many push-ups as I'd like. (No, I'm not beating myself up about it ... I am actually doing them!!)

I had an observation today while doing some of the stretches. I'm getting more flexible ... I'm able to hold my knee straight on some of those stretches where I really had to work to get into, and I wasn't anywhere near straight!! It's encouraging to look at those small points of progress. I'm usually focused on what I still can't do, not how far I've come.

Goals:

1. Tomorrow is Thursday ... I know better than to think I'll get up in time to do a workout. So, my goal is to do 50 push-ups before it's time to get in the shower.
2. Drink 10 glasses of water (I'm upping the count) ... actually, it seems easier to drink my water at work for some reason ... not that I have a huge difficulty doing it at home.
3. Eat on plan ... no "cheats".
