For the past couple of weeks I've had such a hard time doing my workouts. I've done them, but not without an outrageous amount of mental and physical effort.
I dreaded them beforehand, put them off until as late in the day as possible, gasped and groaned my way through them, and grumbled about them afterwards.
And every day I thought: Huh. Wonder why these seem so hard lately?
Maybe it's just a low-energy day. Maybe it's the higher altitude in San Miguel. Maybe there's a lot of pollen in the air and I'm not getting as much oxygen as I need. Maybe I didn't sleep as well as I thought last night. Maybe I have Corona virus. Maybe it's this particular workout.....

And today it finally occurred to me: Maybe it's because I was in 'vacation mode' being in Mexico and I ate a whole ton of carbs, just enough fruits and vegetables to say I'd had a serving that day, and very little real quality protein.
I was a little negligent about taking my vitamins too.

Oh yeah! Nutrition! Bodies use food for energy. Good food=good energy. Crap food=crap
energy.
This rings a bell. I wonder why that is? Oh yes, that's right... It's because I've learned this lesson approximately 5 billion and twenty five times before!!! Over and over and over again!
Doh!!!

My mini-habit of one serving of veggies a day usually keeps me on a roll with healthy eating...but if you really do the bare minimum...the results are pretty minimal.
Okay. Good lesson. Duly noted. Back to eating well starting right now.
Gotta run. Gotta cook some kind of protein and eat it with a peck of fresh veggies.
