Starting Over... Kinda

So... We went home for Thanksgiving and we worked out 1 of the 5 days we were gone. Fail. We just had SO much going on, 2.5 days of driving, plus 2 family's to visit with, dress shopping (successfully might I add!) and finding time to rest between all of that, well it was impossible. So (last) Sunday night we drove home, all 14 hours of it, I had almost 7 monster energy drinks, which canNOT be healthy but it was about survival at that point. We get home late on Sunday evening and I feel terrible. Immediately go to bed and wake up feeling even worse. I decide to sleep through my alarm to try and fight off impending sickness. Unsuccessful. Monday I am wiped out and sick. We both get home, who knows what we had for dinner, all I know is I was in bed by 8pm that night. This routine continued until Friday and Nick even had to stay home from work one day he was so sick.
So at this point we're more than a week behind and we make a pact to start fresh again on Monday. Saturday morning comes and with that over 2 hours of soccer as well. Needless to say, it was a ROUGH day. We were both still barely recovering from being sick and we go and play 2 soccer games, one with no subs. Needless to say, I was in bed before midnight on Saturday and slept a solid 10 hours if not more.

So Monday morning came and my alarm never went off. I was so depressed. Not only did I have work to finish at home that night, we had an evening appointment to make, plus dinner, and an hour of working out. UGH! So we skipped our Monday night workout and started on Tuesday. We also have decided to double up our workout on Friday so we can have Sunday as a day of rest and instead of doing Kempo X on Saturday we're replacing it with our soccer games on Saturdays and sometimes Sundays. We also have a friend doing the same program with us so that's an extra motivator but really, I am going to lose 20-30 pounds and it's going to happen in the next 3-6 months. That's final. And luckily we're going home for an entire week over Christmas so that won't interfere with any workout plans we have. *phew!*
