Hiatus? Not.

Nope, I was not on a workout hiatus.

The last time I was on one, I gained 5 kilos. I would never do that again.

I went to the doctor last two days. I told him that I have been feeling tired and it affected my workout in a big way. I suck at burpees and I just feel exhausted after every workout.

I also told him that I have crappy sleep for several weeks now. It's either I overslept, or I slept for 3 hours and then would be awake for the whole day.

He smirked and scribbled something on his notepad.

"You... my dear, is exhausted. You are drained. You need to rest."

I cringed for a second before saying :

"You're serious? I am frikkin' exhausted? What?"

Maybe it was, slightly ignorant of me to think that only celebs suffer from exhaustion.

"You need sleep."

I requested for Valium, at least at a lower dosage. Surely that's ok.

"Nope. No Valium. But I can give Rameron."

I cringed again. In all gloriousness of my dark undereye bags, I just don't want to subject myself to extra grogginess and crappiness, the side effects of rameron medication.

I rejected the offer for drugs from the doctor. I paid the consultation fee and walked out thinking that I might be tricked into using my medical insurance for such a stupid diagnosis.

But I have to say, I do agree with the doctor's advise. He advised me to have 8 hours sleep, eat more carbs so that my body can accommodate my daily workout. I am consuming waaay too little calories for my kind of interval training.

On a happy note, my muscles had never looked so awesome.

And my thighs looked less like a blob now.

Ok then... I will rest.. more... and eat.. more.
