Oh my aching body. I kind of blew off the Plan last week. Dove back in on Monday. Between Monday and yesterday with weights, SAR training last night, and a pretty intense cardio today I am feeling every muscle in my body right now. Ugh, but good. I've got that nice soreness. Tomorrow's a rest day too, so with stretching today and tomorrow I should be good for weights again on Saturday. I think.
I'm hoping this whole SurveyFail thing dies down soon. I haven't talked about it but I've been watching for sure. It came at an odd time for me because I'd been thinking a lot of the last several weeks about self-identity issues (as I do now and then) and the whole thing left me hurt and angry in a way I couldn't (and still can't quite) put into words. I was glad to see that other people weren't so stymied in their ability to express everything that was wrong with those asshats.
I've got a lot of issues with gender identity and body image that I don't really talk about here. B's workout Plan for me has brought a lot of that to the forefront for me this past month because I'm not just working out, but I'm taking measurements and I'm looking at myself during this transformation attempt. There's nothing like staring at yourself in the mirror to get your mind working on what you do and don't like about yourself and how your body does/does not match who you are at your core. *sigh*
Anyway... back to less depressing stuff.
