Another Monday

So this morning I thought I'd be productive and set my alarm for 5:30am. Oh what was I thinking? That this would be a good thing?

My alarm went off and I dragged myself out of bed. I didn't sleep well all night because I think I was worried that I might sleep through my alarm clock.

I had my little baby, calcium infused, yogurt, collected my stuff and headed to the gym about 5:50. The dog didn't even stir. Apparently, a walk before the sun is up is not on her list of beloved activities either.

I got to the gym with the intention of doing 30 minutes on the elliptical and 30 minutes of lower body strength. I slogged through 30 minutes on the elliptical, dripped sweat all over, and really hated the burning in my legs. I did a 3 minute cooldown and took a long sip of water. That's when it set in, nausea.

It was, OMG I'm going to throw up right now nausea. I figured this was a good time to cool down further, listen to your body and all that. I went down to the weight room and walked 2 slow circles waiting for the feeling to go away. It didn't. At this point, 6:40, I decided that I shouldn't push myself (cause that's what everyone says I should watch). I decided to go home instead.

I left the gym feeling slighty dizzy. I made it home and showedered, had breakfast, and then took a 15 minute nap before leaving for work. Isn't working out supposed to give you energy not deplete it?
