How getting sick can set you WAAAAAYYYYY Back!

Jan 27, 2013

OK When the year started I was off and running. I had removed the carbs from my life I was having a protein packed smoothie every morning and as hard as it was to do I was on my treadmill every morning at 5AM without fail. Well about 2 weeks into the journey my son came home with the flu on a Friday afternoon. I alerted the family that his room was now ground zero and he was patient X. I nursed him round the clock and he was up and back to his video games in 3 days. Well needles to say I did not work out that whole weekend and then two days after he recovered I began to sneeze, then cough and by day 2 I was in sinus hell. 

The one thing I can say is whenever it is flu season or cold season I never get the actual cold, but it does an ugly number on my sinuses which turns into a nasty head cold and then I loose my voice. I was down for 3 days so my workout went out the window for the last week and a half. So here I am trying to start back at square one starting tomorrow. I have to do a bit more research because when I started the journey the first go round I was not loosing the weight at a steady pace, but I did notice a change in other things. Like a decrease in back fat, thighs not rubbing together. so I have to keep in mind and remember that even though the scale does not reflect it just yet the body is letting me know that what ever I am doing is working I just need to keep it up.
