Finally Friday!

Finally Friday was my key phrase today! What a long week, and a very warm day here in the Valley of the Sun.  While it wasn't officially the first day of 100 degree temps, it was certainly the warmest day of 2012 so far.  After my workout, when I got into my car, the dash read 100.  Plenty hot!!  and I am relaxing in my bed, with the lights off, ceiling fan on, blowing lazy puffs of air around the room, against my skin.

It's been a rough week in the workout department.  I did what I was supposed to be doing, and watched what I ate.  I was feeling good, excited (well, ok, not really excited,but optimistic) about my weigh-in on Thursday.  I was certain it would be a good number.  My ego was truly deflated when I found I'd gained half a pound.  Yeah, yeah, I know all the logic and reasons why .... but I was disappointed nevertheless, to the point of being in tears.  It's really hard when you work and work, with no results.  But I'm not telling you anything new -- we've all been there before.   I didn't want to go workout today, but overcame that feeling and "got back on the horse' for another long workout.

As for plans for the weekend.... "avoid the heat" comes to mind!  I'm hoping to get out early in the morning and get in my walk.  Anything after that will be played by ear :)  Hopefully, you'll get out and do something as well!
