WEEK 2... DAY 9... And I'm a B*TCH. (Did You See That HURRICANE!?)

If you personally know me, I am a nice person. PROMISE! It's not even that special time of the month, but I feel like my mood swings are like riding the 'Tower Of Terror' 24/7. Literally. I feel fatigued during my workouts, excited when I get to eat every 2 hours, but then nauseated at times after my workouts. I can't keep my eyes open after 11 P.M. I chew gum to satisfy my sweet cravings, but I think I've over chewed my jaw because every time I bite down it feels like someone is sitting next to me flicking my temples with their finger. 


Welcome to the challenge of "Green Faces Diet, Phase One! And, I LOVE a CHALLENGE!" My family tells me I am no longer a joy to live with, but how would they feel if they couldn't eat a carb or sugar? I felt my temper and anxiety rise this weekend as I watched my sister make homemade banana nut cupcakes and devour them in front me. Sometimes, I think I'm going to lose it... but it's all about...

Yes. Self Discipline. I use this as a reminder for my nutrition, thoughts, exercise, sleep and hydration. Thanks to my trainer, Luka Hocevar for the bracelet; it's just another mental reinforcement to help me stay on track. It's very similar to how those 'balance' bracelets work. (i.e. the Placebo affect.) At least that is my opinion! So with reference to my blog title and how I've been feeling I'm going to try my best to focus on saying positive things on how I am feeling to see if it changes my mood. 


Besides my crazy mood swings, I've been getting my ass kicked in boot camp, small group sessions and semi-private sessions. Last Thursday, I came to my usual boot camp session ready to get served and let's just say I got more than I deserved! Up on the white board was the word, "HURRICANES." What the hell is that? It's 15 minutes of torture! See for yourself. 


HURRICANES:
1 minute of each exercise, 3 rounds
Kettle Bell Deadlift
TRX Squat Jumps
PUSHUPS
Lunges with band pull aparts
Split squat band rows


FINISHER: (Yes, there is always a finisher) 
(30 seconds each)
Wideout jumps
Squat hold
Reserve/Forward lunge
Burpees


And then you die. (Speaking on behalf of my body.) Every time I come to boot camp the workout and intensity is different, which I love. If you're up for a challenge, love to be pushed mentally and physically and want to get in the best shape of your life you need to join Renton Results Bootcamp. I promise you won't regret it! 


I can't wait for Phase 2. Only 12 days left!
