w00t, w00t! End of week 2. I'm halfway to finally being able to eat dark chocolate again.
For those of you that don't know, I joined Sararay's Boot Camp challenge for the month of January and you are not allowed any refined sugars or refined grains. ARGH! It's been a bit of a challenge, and I definitely needed it after all the holiday meals, but I will be glad when it's over. Not just so I can eat a bit o' sugar, but because I've been losing a good amount of weight and I want to see how far I can go inside the limits of this challenge.
I tried a new (and incredibly brutal) workout yesterday. I got a pack of cards and shuffled 'em. Then I pulled the top card and did as many pushups, situps, and squats as the card number was. So, if I pulled a 7, I would do 7 pushups, 7 situps, and 7 squats without rest. Then I would take a rest for 30 seconds before I pulled the next card. I counted aces as ones and I counted face cards as tens. I did this for about 25 minutes until my arms finally gave out on me. I recommend it because you don't get bored too easily since you never know how many reps you're going to have to do.
