Working Out: Week 22 {In which I have bronchitis}

I’m just going to be honest. Working out while you’re hacking and coughing from bronchitis kind of sucks. I had big plans about setting alarms and actually strapping on the heart rate monitor that goes with my a350…but that never really came to fruition.

I started feeling “off” on Monday, and by Tuesday, I was convinced that I was dying, so I took Smalls to school and went straight to the ER (my doc said that if I wasn’t better in 2 weeks to come in-I am currently looking for a replacement.), where I was told that I did not have strep, but I was the proud owner of acute bronchitis.

Fun times, I tell you. Thankfully, Ish was able to work from home so that I could rest as much as possible, and as of today, I’m finally feeling more like myself. I am even hoping to make derby practice tonight!

For those of you who are new to my working out updates, I am following The Trim Healthy Mama Plan, which is why you’ll see letters in parenthesis behind my meals.
