From Sick to Sore to More Sore!

Sorry I've been gone from here so much lately! As I mentioned a few days ago, I had some sort of cold or weird thing. By Wednesday, I was feeling better, so I decided to try out my new 30 Day Shred with Jillian Michaels of The Biggest Loser. Ummm, so much for feeling better. Before i was even done, I knew that I'd be out of commission for a few days! I've been walking and swimming to try and stay somewhat active, but oy!, my muscles haven't moved like that in a LONG time! I took a shower after working out, and if I couldn't have actually felt my legs burning from lunges, I still would have had proof that they had been worked, because in the very areas that they were burning, they were bright red! I was miserable all day Thursday and Friday, but made myself get up and do things because I knew I'd feel better faster. I think that Gabe was even impressed with how far I was pushing myself. By Saturday morning, I was feeling closer to normal and was hoping to work out again sometime that day, but then I went to my friend's garage sale and sat outside with her for a while and I got absolutely fried! I had her spray and SPF50 on me, but apparently, spray sunscreens do not apply as evenly as they imply. Perhaps, even worse! I have a really weird looking burn on both of my arm/shoulders. I'll try to post a picture of it later on tonight. Needless to say, I did not, nor have I yet, done my workout again! I had been hoping to be able to tolerate moving my arm around enough to work out again today, but without divine intervention, I'm thinking that I'll need to wait and see how I'm feeling tomorrow. Regardless of my soreness, we had a great weekend, and I'll try to post more about that tonight. I hope that you all had a great one as well, and that the week isn't too terribly unbearable! After this last one, I'm really looking forward to next weekend, too!
