I did it! I made it through a whole week of bootcamp. It was REALLY hard and I even thought about skipping out of it one night. I was really sore all week. Now after day 5 is complete, I'm not nearly as sore. I still can't complete each exercise repetitions until the end, but I didn't collapse and I pushed myself to my limit.
I feel great! I've been getting amazing sleep and waking up fully refreshed an hour earlier than usual. My food cravings are regulating what I eat and I'm finding that it's working. I've been craving proteins and fruits on a more consistent basis. I am eating carbs, but they are portion controlled. I don't feel stuffed or sluggish.
My summer Latin and Chemistry classes are finished also. And I managed to get the final grading done right away, so I feel mentally relieved as well. I have so many summer projects I want to get to - a teacher's manual for Latin that I'm writing for homeschoolers, lesson planning for the new school year, sewing projects for my shop, and lots of fact finding for the American History class I'm teaching this Fall.
I'm ready to take it all on - I feel good mentally and physically. Next weekend, I'm taking my boys on vacation to the annual sci-fi convention - so psyched! Feeling good feels good :) Still busier than I should be, but I feel like I'm taking care of me.
