No Loss This Week

I actually was just glad to maintain this week.  The scale fluctuated on me quite a bit during the middle of the week.  I weighed in at 255 this week. 

I did manage to go and get 35 minutes of cardio in tonight, even though I felt like crap.  My motivation was at an all time low, but not because I want to quit or anything.  I just hate being sick!  I’m even taking a round of antibiotics, which, if anyone knows me at all, knows that I never ever take medicine unless I have to.  I just like to let things run their course so that my immune system will get stronger.  But this is week three of this sinus infection or whatever and it’s NOT going away.  The dizziness got me this morning.  So I started taking medicine.  I do feel somewhat better this afternoon, especially after working out, but I’m sleeping almost sitting up because I cannot breathe.  The weather and pollens in this area are horrible.  My allergies suck this time of year.  I love spring because of the warm weather….and it’s not too hot like summer (I hate it when it’s over 100)… but I hate spring allergies.  Oh well…hopefully I’ll feel better soon.

I didn’t do my HIIT routine tonight.  I knew I couldn’t make it through that.  I did 30 minutes on the stairclimber, progressively increasing the resistance until I got to 15, then started backing down.  I finished up with a 5 minute cooldown.  Max heart rate was 168.  Calories burned – 430.  Miles traveled – 2.3. Go me…ha
