Today we did a challenging workout. We had to keep going around the complex that surrounds the gym- carrying different things each time we completed one round. It was sandbags, kettlebells, barbells, medicine balls over our heads and dragging a 45 lb tire. I have to say...it CHALLENGED me! It felt so good to push myself and actually be able to do these exercises. It so helps that I have "family" at the gym. We are always encouraging each other. I was talking to Aaron today. (owner/trainer) I told him how I got really light headed yesterday at the gym and that I had the worst headache yesterday after I got home. I was so sick and it came on so fast. My vision was blurry and I thought I was going to have to go to the hospital. It even scared me and I was crying. My cute boys put me to bed and kept telling me..."it's okay mom, your alright...just rest, please don't cry." It was so sweet. I did feel better. Anyway, Aaron asked me how much I am eating and I said about 1,200-1,400 calories a day. He then told me that I am NOT eating enough. We burn 800-1,000 calories in the hour we work out at the gym and he said I needed to be around 2,000 calories a day. Who knew? I think my body was trying to tell me that I needed more. Lesson learned, educate yourself. I thought I was doing everything right.
Last night we had two great baseball games and Matt and Kayla & Maxson came and stayed the night with us. THIS is what I love! FAMILY...It made me especially grateful to be there after the episode earlier during the day.
