You can't always get what you want.

But if you try sometimes, you just might find you get what you need.

These are words I've been trying to replay over and over in my head the last nine days. Why, you may wonder?  Well, last week, I decided that I would re-do my P90X Week 3 because I had missed three workouts and it would just be better all around. Then I caught a small case of the stomach flu so I missed out on two more days. And to top it off, I've had this terribly stiff, sore neck since Sunday morning. I've tried heating pads, Icy Hot, ibuprofen, stretching, rubbing, sleeping differently, but now I'm at a loss. My neck step is either an acupuncturist or a chiropractor, but honestly, I was hoping it wouldn't get to that point.

I just need to do what I need to do, and not worry about the negative aspect of all of this. I know that this happened for a reason, and I am constantly telling myself this so as not to go insane. I used to workout regularly at the gym and attend kickboxing, step, and Pilates classes and would definitely miss them when I wasn't able to attend. However, since starting P90X, I realize now exactly how much I miss it when I can't do it. I guess I'm addicted :)

I was planning to do my 3-day Shakeology cleanse during my recovery week, but I've decided to take advantage of SOMETHING with this neck situation, and start my cleanse today instead. So, wish me luck, blogging world!
