So I pressed play bright and early again this morning; Pilates Fix Extreme. Honestly I was surprised at how challenging it was. I have done pilates programs before but this was way more intense. I felt like I worked muscles I haven't before which is a good thing. It means I am going to feel stronger than I have before when I am done with this program!
#21DFX PB & Strawberry Oatmeal |
Breakfast was the delicious PB & Strawberry Oatmeal I mentioned in my earlier post. It is quickly becoming one of my new favs!
Last night I was lying in bed thinking about my Day 4 workout that I was scheduled to do tomorrow, and realized how selfish it would be of me to take the dvd on my trip and have my husband miss leg day! ---> If you don't already know, leg day is most everyone's least favorite workout. ;)
Normally when I am traveling for just a few days I can makeup the workout on my usual 'rest day'. However, with the 21 Day Fix programs, because they are only 21 days and designed to give you maximum results in a short period of time, you don't have any rest days. My only choice is to double up if I am going to miss a day and stick to it... So that is exactly what I did!
After I dropped off my daughter, Addi, at daycare this morning I went home and completed Lower Fix Extreme. My legs were already feeling like jello from my earlier workout but I pushed through and although it was tough, I felt amazing when I was done. I realize you can't tell by this photo but I did, I promise.

Healthy airport lunch and then some! |
As I mentioned I am on a business trip in Atlanta the rest of this week and the bigger struggle when it comes to being away from home, is following the nutrition plan. But I came armed with my Shakeo, my color coded containers and all of my non-perishable food in plastic baggies. At the airport today I was surrounded by greasy food and Starbucks pastries, but I stayed STRONG. I searched for a while before I found something suitable to eat but it ended up being just what I needed to stay on track!
I passed on the networking event tonight because it was a cocktail party and a girl can only handle so much temptation for one day.
Great job baby!
