In that time, in addition to working on the 30-Day Shred, I&#8217;ve lost 9 pounds. WHOOP WHOOP!!<\/p>\n<p>I actually haven&#8217;t been at this weight in several years, and while 9 lbs doesn&#8217;t seem a lot, it&#8217;s the most I&#8217;ve ever managed to lose. And I did it in one month. I&#8217;m looking forward to future progress!<\/p>\n<p>I got sick last week with kind of a brutal head cold and have had a sore throat for like ten days, it sucks! Not gonna lie, I think was exacerbated by visiting friends who have a short hair cat. I am still allergic to cats, so that was sad. I went into the office Monday morning with no voice to merge a spreadsheet into labels and then was like, &#8220;I&#8217;m out!&#8221; and went home and pretty much slept all day. I&#8217;ve spent the rest of the week in zombie mode.<\/p>\n<p>Today I managed to put some makeup on so I guess I&#8217;m feeling a little better. I have a work event tomorrow where I have to get up at the crack of dawn and be &#8220;on&#8221; all day on a Saturday, so here&#8217;s hoping there&#8217;s copious coffee! There is definitely copious overtime, so that&#8217;s cool. The event should be fun and we put a lot of work into it so I hope it goes well!<\/p>\n<p>This week since I feel like roadkill I haven&#8217;t kept up with The Shred. I&#8217;m disappointed about this, as I only have 6 days to go before I complete it! Hopefully I&#8217;ll feel more up to it soon because I want to finish it before I head off on vacation on the 13th. For the most part, I&#8217;ve really enjoyed this workout and will definitely be repeating it in the future. But this week is definitely a wash as I feel more like lying down and sleeping. I don&#8217;t want to overdo it and be sick for 32 days again like I was in January.<\/p>\n<p>Not that I was counting. :\/<\/p>\n<p>I really need a nap.<\/p>\n<div id=\"wp_fb_like_button\" style=\"margin:5px 0;float:none;height:30px;\"><script src=\"http:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/all.js#xfbml=1\"><\/script><fb:like href=\"http:\/\/melissaruth.com\/blog\/2013\/10\/fitness-friday-progress-so-far\/\" send=\"false\" layout=\"standard\" width=\"450\" show_faces=\"false\" font=\"arial\" action=\"like\" colorscheme=\"light\"><\/fb:like><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So, MyFitnessPal tells me I&#8217;ve logged in for 30 days straight.
