I either have severe DOMS in one toe, or I sprained it on Monday doing single leg squats. It's been tender since Monday afternoon and today, it about killed me to do Burn Intervals. I had to really modify the moves, and I couldn't do any jumps that involved my left foot. So, note to self: balls of feet, not toes!!! I didn't even do my ab work today because I couldn't use my toes. I was going to do the standing segment of Ab Jam but my son wanted to watch SpongeBob. I might tack that on to Saturday's workout. I wanted to do the Turbulence Training workout I did last week but I couldn't do the planks or the mountain climbers without my toes. In general, I'm not happy with today's exercise at all. I need to do these intervals at the highest intensity. Short(ish) and sweet is how I like to work out and having to half-ass my way through a work out pisses me off.
I think - no, I know - I need to eat better. I've gotten sloppy the last couple of weeks. I need more vegetables, less crap. Well, more vegetables anyway. I think the whole wheat stuff I've been making is fine, in moderation. Now there's a concept I never thought I'd say. I remember when I had the all-or-nothing mentality. Even though it's taking longer to lose the weight, I think my sanity is worth it. I was thinking about Atkins the other day (not thinking about doing it again, just in general) and there was a comment on a message boards about how it's not sustainable. That's such a bad generalization because I know many people who can do it long term. I just don't happen to be one of them. I loved how I was able to lose on Atkins, and I'm jealous of the binge eaters who say Atkins has helped them.
