Where have you been all my life? Sunday, February 13, 2011. Freedom, and the lack there of. And so, an update on my endorphins; they have ceased to exist, and that makes me sad. But when I don't work out I go through withdrawl symptoms. I physically feel pain in my back, arms, and legs. I don't why that happens, but it's not pretty. You know the typical movie scene in a rehab hospital where a drug addict is kicking and screaming? That's basically me. I feel like a caged animal who needs to break free...

http://myendorphinrush.blogspot.com/2011/03/home-is-sweet-but-without-sugar-for-now.html
Where have you been all my life? Wednesday, March 9, 2011. Home is sweet, but without the sugar for now. Alhamdulilah, I'm back home, which is super fantastic! Instead, I'm going to focus on what I plan to do to get myself back to where I was before I left. Feeling strong, energetic, and back to a healthier weight (And no, I refuse to tell anyone how much that is, heck, it took years before my husband found out). So here is my plan for the next 4 weeks. In terms of food intake:. To track my calories for ...

My Endorphin Rush: August 2010
http://myendorphinrush.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Where have you been all my life? Tuesday, August 24, 2010. I remember reading a study that said "one in four teacher quits within the first five years of teaching". or something along those lines. Basically, teaching is one of the hardest jobs out there. If you make it past year five, you might just have a career on your hands. So, I've completed year five (yay! It has been a struggle to maintain balance in my life and not let teaching take over. So I decided NO MORE! I went into my old class today to ge...

My Endorphin Rush: March 2011
http://myendorphinrush.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Where have you been all my life? Tuesday, March 22, 2011. Alhamdulilah I'm really proud of last week's workouts. Here's a summary:. Body combat followed by 15 mins of cardio. Body pump followed by 45 mins of cardio, which included a 25 min run. My muscles were on fire so I took the day off. I stayed home and watched clips of the biggest loser. I imagined being verbally abused by the biggest loser trainers, which helped me work out for over 2 hours; Body Pump, then step class, then 15 mins of extra cardio.

It hasn't been easy but here are a few things that I've realized about myself this past month:. Whenever I feel tired I think back to how much water I drank and realize that I haven't drank enough. It's amazing that something so simple makes you feel fabulous. Listening to my body. Is my crack. I'm now addicted to having it every day. Three little squares are only 90 ...The c...
