Big News!!

This has been a HORRIBLE food and exercise week. No time, back pain and not choice in ordering has made for just a bad week. I'm owning it, and working to get better. I'll have the ability to have a fridge next week and will have a larger room to work with for Insanity and a safer area to go for a run if I choose. I know Cody pretty well (I've spent a month there to date) and feel more comfortable with it than in Houston where I just got back from.

So now for the big news that some have heard. Bobby and I are moving to Indianapolis in the next few months. I've received a transfer in positions at my company, and will be helping out another engineering group (I'm in Pipeline engineering Mainline integrity now, I will be in Pipeline Engineering Region Engineering South). It will be a lateral move, but I will be gretting a raise, and the work I will be doing is capital work, no longer expense work, which is a double edged sword. The projects will be bigger, higher profile and higher cost work. I'll also be doing more design and total engineering rather than just coordination.

I have a conference call on Monday to determine the timeline, but I'll probably be moving down there in the next 2 weeks and living in an extended stay hotel. We'll be getting stuff ready to sell our house and buy a new house. Lots of changes, but we are very excited.

I'm going to be traveling again Monday - Wednesday. My goal is to do Insanity on Monday night and Tuesday night at the hotel. I'd like to run on Wednesday when I get home. We are going to Michiana this next weekend, where I hope to get a bootcamp and a run in as well. I'll also host a bootcamp on Thursday night. I'm really ready for consistency.

My body hates me

Well, the DOMS is back with a vengence. I could barely walk this morning! Which isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Recapping yesterday, I started my marathon relay training! 3 miles with Dice followed by 1.1 miles with Roger. I couldn't take one without the other! Food was on plan until we went to Reverends for the football game. Rapture dip anyone? I got home from that and passed out. 12 hours of sleep and I feel like a new woman!

I'm taking today as a day of rest. I did weigh in this AM and I'm up 1.8 pounds!! Bob says its from water retention, which I know is the case. It takes time and consistency to see scale love.

This week will be a true test for me as I'm traveling with coworkers through Friday. My plan for the week is as follows:
Monday - DOR
Tuesday - legs and airtravel
Wednesday - Insanity DVD!
Thursday - back/biceps and 4 mile training run
Friday - chest/tris/shoulders, insanity dvd! And air travel
Saturday - cycle and yoga
Sunday - 4 mile run

Food wise I'm planning on keeping it simple - protein bars, oats, salads, eggs, etc while away. We have an extra Magic Bullet so I'll be able to make shakeology while away. Hopefully my back will withstand the hotel beds!
