Day 12 of 30: Common Sense?

Today was a looong day. Work was well, work. Nothing fun to report there. Oh, but there was a most awe insipiring, mandetory, 2-hour, afternoon meeting. The focus you ask? Apparently it is frowned upon to drink or do drugs at work and.. also while driving company vehicles. Really? Really. The fact that we even had to have a presentation is quite amusing and yet somehow sad at the same time. Common sense is not so common it would seem.

I also learned about vitamins today. Specifically that one should not take massive quanities of vitamin C. I had always thought that extra vitamin C would pass by and do no harm. After a caution from the resident mom at work, I read online that the dosage threshold is 1000mg. Consistently taking over 1000mg puts one at risk for minor and major side effects. So I will start taking no more than 2, 500mg chewables, per day rather than the 3-8 I frequently consume. Who knew that taking 4000mg of vitamin C per day would be bad?

After work, even with my sore knee, I managed to make it through the entire 30 mintues of workout number two. Yay for me! There is much more cardio in this level. The ab workouts are almost all planks or in some form of plank position. So overall, much harder than workout one. It felt good to only have to pause the dvd once today. My knee is healing up and it's holding me back currently, which can be frustrating having to tone down workouts and follow the modified moves, when I know I can do so much more. I'm sure a couple more days and it will be back to normal.

Two more days to workout before my weekly weigh in on Friday. Just over 20lbs to go to my goal, and I know I can do this. I just need to keep moving!

Day 12 complete!
