Measurements Week 10

I’m thankful that both our measurements are still on track this week. I was a little concerned for my own progress, because I have not been feeling well at all. I’ve got some kind of head/sinus cold trying to take hold and I’ve had a hard time getting any sleep; last week, I kept falling asleep at midnight and waking up automatically for the day at 4 AM. Every day. Yuck! I’ve pretty much been just dragging myself around to get what I need to done, so I only worked out twice last week. The Mayo Clinic has some sound advice about exercising while sick, with one of the messages being “Let your body be your guide”. So this week, I did just that. And happily, it hadn’t set my progress back any, so hopefully I’ll be feeling a lot better in a day or two. The lack of sleep is the worst part, so I’ll feel a lot more eager to workout when I’m not surviving on a couple of hours of sleep!




I’m curious: Do you work out when you’re under the weather?

  1. How awesome! I’m inspired by you. I’ve lost a couple of pounds this week from adjusting to a healthier lifestyle and I may be ready to up my seriousness soon with something like this!

  2. I usually do not work out when I am sick, but I think like you mentioned, I probably SHOULD just at least get up and go thru the motions b/c afterwards I am SO off my game for days!! Perhaps even just taking a slow walk at the same time I usually do my workout would keep me in the “habit” ??

  3. Ingesta de fármacos: El consumo de fármacos para tratar diversas enfermedades pueden causar impotencia masculina, como por ejemplo los antipsicóticos, los antidepresivos, ansiolíticos, psicotrópicos, hormonas esteroideas, antihipertensivos, antineoplásicos, etc.
