Yup. You read that right. I had great expectations about today, and the harsh reality is my body isn't having it. I decided it would be a good idea to start going over ballet with Allie, which took me about 20 mins, then to follow that up with Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred.
What was I thinking, you ask?
That I could do it.
Sadly, I couldn't.
EPIC FAIL #1 for me.
Am I just gonna throw my arms up and quit? Fuck no, that's boring. People who quit are lazy, and I am not lazy. I don't mind fighting for what I need, I just have to make sure I can also function, and take care of my family while I'm doing it.
Today I almost fainted, because I was listening to Jillian scream at me to "Feel the burn" and "All she wanted was 20 mins of my life" ... she's so manipulative, I swear. I did learn I need to re-evaluate my standing with myself, and work in some small, lighter, activities as to balance out all of this. Going from doing no sort of high impact workout to just "Oh hey, I'm here!" one day with her DVD was so stupid of me.
Lesson learned.
It probably didn't help that I started going over ballet moves with my daughter this morning for about 20 mins, before I did Jillians DVD. Perhaps I could space that out a little too LOL
I will say this though, Allie was right there practicing her heart out, trying to get the ballet moves down like a champ. Then she was right there next to me doing the Shred DVD, pumping me up and telling me I was doing awesome. I'm starting to wonder if she's really only 6 years old ... LOL
