5 AM Wake Up Call

This morning as my phone started going off at 5:00, I was like what the heck is going on, then it hit me. Today I start my morning workout routine. First off to say that I am not a morning person is an understatement, but these past 4 months since going back to work, my hubby back teaching at night and a child that wears me ought during the day I have not had consistent work outs. When adding being done nursing and going on birth control pills to the mix the scale keeps crawling up a little every couple of weeks, I have less energy then when I use to work out consistently everyday and my clothes don't feel as comfortable. So back to the grind it is. I hope I have the strength to be consistent as I know it will truly make for better days and just feeling all around better and healthier.

A couple things to note about working out that early in the morning
- running when you feel like a zombie is not as fun and it takes a good 20 minutes into my run before I feel alive.
- there are a lot more people at the gym then you would think
- my favorite music to workout to sounds like jackhammers in the morning and I definitely skip the white strips and leave on Ingrid michaelson.
- I'm not a huge fan of working out on an empty stomach and will have to train myself to get use to it.
- the one good thing is that it is 7:24 right now and I have already worked out, showered, cleaned my bedroom and bathroom and written a blog post. Oh and got to say morning prayers with my hubby and give him a hug and kiss before he left for his first day at his new job.
