Working out and Water!

My BodyRock Workout of the Day is Tighten it up. There are no videos for this workout, just pictures to illustrate how to do each exercise, but they are familiar exercises.My plan is to go home after class, workout real quick - should only be a 13 min workout plus warm up and cool down, and then study for my anatomy exam tomorrow.  My class on Tuesday and Thursday is right after work, so I go to Blimpie's on campus and get a turkey and provolone sub on wheat for dinner.  It's not terribly bad and it's way better than the other alternatives around campus, plus it saves me from having to wait until I get home to eat.  Think about it right now is making me hungry! 

I have to say I feel rejuvenated after taking a couple weeks off from working out. I know sometimes taking a break is good, and with being sick last month it felt nice to relax a bit. My eating habits were ok, but started to slide downhill this weekend; we had pizza and mac and cheese with tuna, but oh they were sooooo goooood! :o)  Along with eating healthier, I am trying to drink more water throughout the day. I normally have a mug of water on my way into work, then about two cups of coffee in the morning (I don't drink the full cup, but I do refill it), then another tall glass of water mid morning and for lunch, and one to two more glasses in the afternoon. If I have class I fill up a water bottle to take with me,  and if not I go home and drink another cup or two there. I often have a beer or glass of wine when I get home, which I am trying to cut out this week, so I don't have as much water as I should at night.  I know it sounds like a lot when I write it all down, but I know there are some days I don't get in quite as much as I should. 

Speaking of which... off to get some more water!
