Happy Derby Day!

Well, not quite.  The famed Kentucky Derby is tomorrow and we are celebrating in style today at work!  I made a fabulous hat last night and everyone brought in food and wore festive head gear for the occasion.  Have I mentioned that I love my job?

(My Hat)

So the Zumba party was awesome last night!  It was a super SERIOUS workout - definitely got my heart pumping!  I was soaked in sweat within the first 20 minutes!  It was so great!  The cosmic Zumba portion was REALLY cool!  They turned off all of the lights and the instructors put on tall white tube socks, neon shoes, white shorts, black/white referee shirts and white gloves and turned on black lights!  It was a little harder to see but it was cool because in the dark, it removes all reservations about dancing full-out so I danced my ass off!  I was shakin it, jumpin around.. pretty much doin the damn thing!  I think I saw something about them making Cosmic Zumba a regular class at the gym from now on.. if so, I'll defintely be participating!

The aftermath - about an hour after I got home, I could barely move!  I was still SO sore from bootcamp and all of other regular workouts, I was seriously in pain.  Branden almost yelled at me when I mentioned that I planned to go to the gym this morning, he said I'm not taking enough of a break between workouts and that's not good for my body.  I didn't go to the gym this morning, but I did still do a little bit of an arm workout with my dumbbells at home (between cooking my food to bring in to work today, making mom's guacamole to take to the dance thing tonight, cooking breakfast, getting his lunch together and doing the dishes).  I feel kind of bummed about not going to the gym this morning.. guilty, even.  I'll probably try to get in more of my arm stuff tonight.. though the cardio is a concern.  There's a bellydance Hafla (similar to a recital/party) in Rabbit Hash tonight.. if we can go to that, then I can defininitely get the cardio with dancing... but I don't think Branden wants to go so we'll see.

I'm still pretty sore today, but nothing compared to last night.  When I finally got into bed, it felt so amazing to just lay there and not be using any muscles lol.

We're having a Food Day in addition to our Derby Party at work today, so I made Mini Hot Browns.  Not diet food by any means, but they are traditional.  Needless to say, my menu is quite off today and I know that I'm going to be taking in some extra calories that I normally would not. 

Today:
Breakfast:

Choc Protein w/ Skim Milk

Couple of pieces of WW Baguette (while I was making Hot Browns lol)

Snack:
Cytomax Protein Drink (finally bought more!)

Lunch:
Food Day stuff

Snack:

If necessary?

Banana

Dinner:

TBD

Well, I think that's all that I have for today.  I'm going to go at least one more week with this workout routine, then I'll decide if I'm going to switch it up or go for a full 4 weeks. 

Oh and weigh-in tonight/tomorrow/Sunday lol.. I'm excited, I'm hoping for good results! :)

I don't know if I'll post tomorrow or not but if I don't, Happy Derby Day!!
