So, I'm going to have to workout extra hard the next couple weeks to undo the damage from this Thanksgiving week! I went to my mom's up north on Wednesday, and got back to LA yesterday. So there was a good 3 days of binge eating lol. I think it was worth it though, because I had such good food that I don't get to eat often! After all, I workout because I like to eat. Haha.
I did get in a little conditioning workout while I was at my mom's. But only once. Better than nothing I suppose. I also went to the gym today without knowing that my gym actually closed at 2 pm! I got there at like 1:25. So I had to quickly finish my workout without additional cardio like I had planned. Ugh. I don't understand why they had to close at 2 pm this weekend. Thanksgiving is over, they had early close on Wednesday and Friday, and completely closed on Thursday. Isn't that enough?! It's a freaking gym, on the weekend after the biggest national binge day! I'm so annoyed with them. There were a lot of other people there too all the way up until closing time.
Anyway, when I was in town on Monday - Wednesday morning, I meant to make it to the gym everyday of course. But I think I got a mini-cold or something, because I just felt completely exhausted on Tuesday. I slept for like 10 hours too. I guess it COULD be because of my new workout on Monday, since I started month 2 of the Get Glutes program. But I think it's unlikely due to the workout alone. After I slept and rested on Tuesday, I felt a lot better on Wednesday though. So whatever it was, I beat it!
Month 2 of Get Glutes is pretty good I think! I might like the workouts better than month 1 actually. For a good half of the week, I was walking around with a sore bum! It made me feel good though, because whatever exercises caused it, I hit the right spot! Lol.
Monday 11/24
What I did: The first strength training session of month 2.
What I wore: Lorna Jane Inspire tank with Lorna Jane Quick Step bra under. Lululemon wunder under crop in bruised berry (reverse side) and Nike Free 5.0 TR Fit 4 shoes in fusion pink/atomic mango, because they match the bra straps =).

My mom has a mini river running through her backyard lol. Not a bad view.

Sunday 11/30
What I did: Quickly did my 3rd strength session of the week at the gym. Then I came home and did the 3rd conditioning workout at home as well. Luckily there was no weights needed so it could be done at home.
What I wore: Lululemon Flow and Go tank in faded zap, with Beyond Yoga Gathered Legging in dusk. Same Nike shoes as the last workout.
I wore my Lululemon Outward Bound jacket as to and from, because it finally got colder in LA! It was actually drizzling a little too, which we desperate need. I hope it drizzles for like the next 2 weeks.
I just love this jacket, and wish I could wear it more often! I think it's the only "puffy" style jacket that I've liked from Lulu.
I find the V designs on the back particularly flattering for the waistline:
I can't wait to get back into the gym tomorrow morning! All I'm going to do this coming week is workout hard, eat healthy and hit my macros/micros. =)
For those of you who partook on Turkey Day festivities, I hope you had a great one! I still can't believe Christmas is almost here. This year has been going by wayyyy too fast!
