Well, my hip is back to hurting a bit. Not too terrible since I have been taking it easy lately. This was to be expected though because the doctor said that once the numbing medication wore off, it would take 2-3 days for the cortisone to start working.
Hopefully, it’ll start feeling better tomorrow because I do not want to get an MRI.
Today’s Workout
I did an upper body workout yesterday, so I decided to do a 30 minute ab workout this morning.
My workout looked like this:
If you’re not familiar with all these exercises, click on the name to learn more: oblique crunches, Russian twists, reverse crunches, and Pilates 100.
After my ab workout, I did about 20 minutes of hip, quad, and glute stretches.
I wore my heart rate monitor just to see how many calories I burned during an ab workout.
Not a lot – that was abs and stretching. I can’t wait to get back to my regular workouts!
After the gym, the kids and I stopped at the store.
I have been looking for Larabar Alt bars for awhile and my grocery store finally got them!
I am excited to try out the pumpkin pie flavor. It makes me excite for the fall time! And apparently, the grocery store is also excited for fall because they’re already putting out Halloween magazines!
Fall is my all-time favorite season, but I like to enjoy summer first!
Lunch
Lunch this afternoon was an English muffin with pb, pineapple Greek yogurt topped with some granola, and some watermelon. I have been loving English muffins with pb lately – I think I have eaten one everyday for the past week.
Tonight, my stepmom, sister-in-law, and grandma are coming over for dinner and a movie night. I rented Identity Thief. It looks funny and I love Melissa McCarthy! (I’ve loved her ever since Gilmore Girls). Did you know she’s Jenny McCarthy’s cousin?!
- Any other Gilmore Girl fans?
