Knowing your limits..

Last week was a busy busy time at work. I think I put over 60 hours last week. Usually I can handle about 36-48 hours. I think the reason I had a breaking point was because I was trying to fit in my Insanity work outs at the end of the day. Even when I was super exhausted, I would push through. Well on Monday, I woke up feeling nauseated, feverish, and exhausted. I tried to push myself to work, but I could barely keep my head up. I finally reached my breaking point. No amount of coffee or food could make me feel better. My body needed sleep. I left work early, and slept until dinner time. Had a bite to eat, and then I slept till the following morning. It is so crazy how sleep can change the way you feel. I woke up feeling like brand new. I have since then stopped insanity, and am contemplating beginning again. I do like the ease of working out at home. But I think with the way things are at work right now, I can't fit 6 days a week of work outs if I'm working 5 12 hour days. Maybe I should go back to cross fit, and just begin running on the tread mill again... We will see.. The good news is I lost 5 pounds of just working out with insanity and eating well for 2 weeks.

Here is a cute picture of my sister's pug named Mason. He just finished chewing up his bed. Isn't he just adorable!!!
