Plummeting

I went to the doctor today and was given a prescription only to discover that this particular medicine has a high risk of tendon damage or breakage. Throughout the information packet is had, in bold, do not exercise or do strenuous work while on this medication.

I'll only be taking it for a week but really? Ugh, I am so frustrated. Really though, it's my own fault...if I would have worked out while on vacation (which I totally could and should have) and this past week then one week wouldn't seem like such a big deal but now, this will be three weeks and that makes a big difference. I can already tell changes in my body and I feel like I"m getting soft. Well, more soft.

It's just so easy for me to slip back into poor habits and so much easier to hit the snooze button and sleep in instead of getting up and doing something....I'm just concerned that I won't get back into it like I should.

Ugh, I wish I could just be one of those "I love to workout, it's my passion!" kind of people but I am not. I am so not. I mean, I always feel good afterwards but I have to make myself do it...

I know a large part of it is because I haven't been well and that always puts me in a funk...so one more week....

I am hopeful that at the end of the week I will feel 100 percent again and find the motivation that I am so desperately seeking...either that or I'm going to have to put a picture of me in a bikini on the bathroom mirror to remind myself why I need to workout...

Taking my crabby behind to bed...
