Day 16... Ouch!!! Cleanse Day 6

I pushed myself at the gym today and now my knee is killing me. I jogged for 7 minutes at one time... a new personal best... and then for another 3 mintues for 10 minutes total. I did a total of 25 minutes on the treadmill and 35 minutes on the bike the whole time my knee was aching... now it hurts to move it. I'm thinking tomorrow I might just end up walking the whole time on the treadmill and doing a lower level on the bike... unless my knee is feeling better tomorrow. I think for the rest of the night I will sit with my leg elevated. I am also going to order some joint support to help.

Oh and I realized that I never mentioned that when I'm on the treadmill I have it set to random and level 3... this means that when I am jogging I'm usually on a 0.8 - 2.9 incline depending on when I start jogging. I also have the bike set to random and level 5. Thus pushing myself even further without really trying.

I'm having a hard time sticking to my cleanse today... but I have. Wheat Thins sound really good right now and Ben and Ava keep eating them in front of me. :( I have 1 day left and I'm not about to throw in the towel now. I think for dinner I'm going to have some asparagus, brown rice and cucumbers with grapes for dessert. I always add a little bit of low sodium soy sauce to my rice to make it taste a little bit more like something other then blah!

Tomorrow I will have to get up and go to the gym at 8 in the morning if I want to go at all... that is going to be a challenge for me but I'm determined to make it to the gym. That will make it so I've gone to the gym 5 times this week, surpassing my goal of 4 times. I have stuck to my goals so far this week... no Diet Coke, going to the gym 4 times, walking on days that I didn't make it to the gym and eating only fruits, veggies and brown rice. I'm uncertain what goals I will have for next week but I will have at least 1!!!

Let the lbs melt!!!
