Diva-Roo,
It's very nice to hear that you're feeling better.

You my dear, are an inspiration.

How are you feeling today, Rooney? A bit better?

How are you feeling today, Rooney? A bit better?

A tad better ...but still on the tired and achy side. Thanks for asking, Fly Girl! I did make it up at 5:45am to sleep walk to the gym again, but felt like I could only give my spinning class 75% instead of the usual 100%. But on the up side, at least I got out of bed for morning cardio instead of sleeping in an extra 2 hrs.

I'm seeing my chiropractor this evening to get adjusted so I'm hoping that will help with some of the aches and soreness.

I know I don't come close to training like some of the ladies here, but am wondering if I'm being hit by overtraining syndrome and if my body is just spent?

My thought exactly. In fact, I raised an eyebrow and had a stupid look on my face when I read that! lol

- you're doing FINE. If you need a break. Take one - a couple 3 days off the weights never hurt anyone.

Had plans to work out this evening (upper body & cardio), but cell phone suddenly stopped working this afternoon. I’m traveling tomorrow so I had to make sure I got to a Cingular store to get a replacement. Of course, I didn’t have phone insurance so basically they were kind enough to give me a dinky loaner. Was tired and hungry by the time all this was resolved, especially since I had to beat traffic to get there before the store closed after work

Yummy! How do u cook it?

Actually, the lite tofu I buy here is pre-packaged and pre-cooked already. I just get the silky soft textured kind that is meant for desserts and shakes. Do you have access to that? I would imagine any pre-packaged or boiled/steamed tofu can be put through the blender with strawberries to get a similar effect.

So I’m going to be off program for the rest of the weekend and also give my body some rest from working out. I know I will be bloated to high heavens when I get back after all the and but hopefully it’ll be worth it!
