I have to make a confession–I failed at the challenge in the past few days, but it wasn’t for a lack of effort. I have really sensitive skin. I don’t talk about this much because I find it embarrassing when it flares up. What happens is that my skin reacts to underwire on my bra, pants edges, underwear edges, etc. I get pimples on a good flare-up and huge, painful boils when it’s bad. This was a bad flare up, on my stomach, along the edge of where my pants sit. It got to the point where I couldn’t wear pants all weekend, only skirts with elastic edges. I would cry out in pain as I sat down at times. It sucked. I worked out hard on Thursday before all the Thanksgiving eating. But the next day it went from somewhat sore to wearing no pants and I couldn’t jump or bend over without being in horrible, horrible pain. So I had to take a few days off to heal. Only today did it finally break, get smaller, start to itch and stuff. Even then, when I was working out, it was sore doing some stuff and I had to modify. Boo!

Today though, was good. I went to my evening boot camp and worked out with Jana. She had us do a mix of arms and legs and a mix of Insanity thrown in there for good measure! I know I will be sore tomorrow, just in time to go again tomorrow night. Today’s food wasn’t amazing…there were a lot of leftovers from the weekend that I finished off. Tomorrow will be better.
