What a pain in the knee...

I am going to say something I thought I would never say.   I miss working out.   I was doing really good with the Julian Michaels 30 Day shred.  I was looking forward to doing it everyday.  I was even feeling better and seeing my body changing.  It was great.  That was until last week when my knee decided to go out on me. Crap.  I spent last weekend babying it and on Monday did a modified workout.  I didn't do all the jumping jacks and butt kickers and that sorta thing.  I still got a good workout in, but the next morning I realized I had to take a break and rest my knee.  Now here it is Friday and everyday I want to be able to work out, but my knee won't let me.  I am giving it over the weekend and if it isn't better I am going to get it checked out.  I never thought I would be one of those people who enjoyed working out, but for a short while I was.
  The thing that is bothering me the most is I know I am not going to make my first goal.  That sucks.  I was on track to do so good.  Now I feel like I am back to square one. I know that I need to take care of my knee, I know that.  It is just hard to loose all that good progress.  I need to figure out something to do that won't put pressure on my knee, but even riding a stationary bike wasn't fun.
 The next few months are going to be crazy around here.  Fun but crazy.  I need to be pain free to get through them.  Here's to hoping my knee cooperates with me..

Till then...

Day 2 of 30 day shred...

30 day shred kicked my butt yet again.  But I liked.  I feel like I did a bit more than yesterday.  Right now my arms and leg are still shaking. That's some good stuff there.
