But in all seriousness, I think it's actually entirely possible that my super allergic reaction to mosquito bites caused me to be so tired. I counted 11 bites on my legs from just an hour of dinner at a restaurant patio in New York. I have always been very allergic to mosquito bites and they seem to love me. Each bite turns into big nasty red bruises. Some are as big as my fist, I kid you not. One time, when I lived in Australia (everything there is bigger lol) I got bit once on the top of my hand and my entire hand swelled up so big that I couldn't even move my fingers. This time the reaction was quite bad too which caused me misery for days. I googled and found that sometimes reactions to mosquito bites do cause fatigue. The timing sure makes sense. But it's hard to tell. They are fading away slowly now, and I feel better. But again, it might just be coincidence.
Monday 6/1 - Rest
Tuesday 6/2 - Rest
Wednesday 6/3
What I did: Still doing Get Glutes month 8. Strength session #1.
What I wore: Oh yeah, since I got all kinds of awful mosquitoe bites on my legs, I had to wear long pants all week. No skirts to work, and no crops to the gym. I wore the Skull tank from Etsy, with Lululemon High Times pant in diamond jacquard jewelled magenta and Nike Free 5.0 TR Fit 4 shoes in ash.
Alo Yoga Rift LS as to and from:
Thursday 6/4
What I did: Strength #2 - this was a real struggle.
What I wore: Beyond Yoga elastic sweep tank with Lululemon free to be bra in white under. Nike Flash tight, and same Nike shoes.
I was going to a Dodger game after work, so I decided to wear my Vince Knit Scuba jacket to the gym so that I could bring it to work with me and wear it to the game after work.
By the way, I saw the cutest thing at the Dodger stadium - I had no idea what this was but apparently it's called a bullpen cart. Back in the day, they used to bring pitchers to the mound in these cute carts:
It's so cute, I want one! |
Since my Thursday's workout didn't make me feel so great, I actually lost motivation to go workout for the rest of the week lol. Didn't even feel that guilty about it which is unusual. But I realized on Friday that my Universal Studios annual pass was expiring this coming Monday, which means that in order to take advantage of what I paid for, I would need to go back there this weekend. So I went back today! I wore what I would normally wear to the gym haha... it's kind of a workout to walk around in the heat and stand in line all day! =P
I wore Under Armour Achieve tank with Lorna Jane Quick Step bra under. Lululemon Empower Crop, and Nike Free 5.0 TR Fit 4 shoes in hyper cobalt/bright mango.
It was in the high 80s there today. So no need for any long sleeves.
I also wore the Lululemon What'SUP Hat in star crushed deep navy which you can see when I ran into Beetlejuice and he wanted to take a picture with me lol:
Fun times! The lines were not long at all today, and I rode everything I wanted to, even multiple times on the Mummy ride so I'm happy.
I am a magnet for bugs - the hubby can be sitting there with me and I'm getting eaten alive and they aren't even bothering him. I've also had the same reaction with bruising - it has gotten worse as I get old, unfortunately....
ReplyDeletehaha! The photo with Beetlejuice is too cute :)
