Mission 2, Day 53: Flu bug decimates my accountability log

March 27, 2008 By Michael Mahony, ISSA CPT Leave a Comment





I continue to deal with this flu bug.  It is decimating my accountability log due to the fact that I can eat, just not nearly as much or as often as I'd like.  I got on the scale and I've dropped 3 pounds (lol) but I can think of better ways to drop 3 pounds.

I feel achy, feverish and cranky, so I'm calling it a day.

Workout Log:

No workouts today.  I would have done cardio, but the flu is keeping me out of the gym until Monday.  That's the decision I've made.  I know my body and if I go back sooner I will relapse.

Thought for the Day:

Accept what life throws at you and move on.  Yes, accountability logs are important, but being sick and getting yourself better is more important.

Until tomorrow…GET BACK TO LIFTING!
