Day 73... Red Robin again

Today Ava and I got together for lunch with my friend Jessica and her son Ben. We went to Red Robin. I had the Simply Grilled Chicken Salad with Balsalmic dressing and water to drink. It was ok but I did have to use the dressing a little bit and I didn't eat very much. It was kind of dry and bland this time around... but the company was fantastic and I hope to get together with Jessica again soon. Other then the salad I've had a hard boiled egg to eat. I've only had 3 bottles of water today usually by now I'm at 6. I just hope to reach my gallon for today.

Went to the gym this morning wasn't really feeling it though. I skipped the elliptical and went straight to strength training... did 4 sets of 12 on the weigthed ab machine and calf raise machine. Then did 100 crunches... no planks for me today. I then did 50 minutes on the treadmill at level 4 speed 3.7 set to random. Tomorrow is my rest day so no working out for me.

In order to hopefully reach my goal of 190 by Wednesday and to hopefully restart my weight loss (I've stopped losing weight) I'm going to be doing a 3 day cleanse. Same as before fruits, veggies and brown rice for 3 days. I know that I said that I wouldn't do a cleanse for a while but I really feel it is the only way to even come close to reaching my goal and to restart this process. Plus it will be a way to cut out all the crud I've been eating lately. Once the 3 days are up I will add back in protein and only protein! No more saltine crackers, animal crackers, cheez-its and cereal.

I've done pretty good my goals this week that is except for not reaching my gallon yet today. I've drank at least a gallon of water a day... most days reaching a gallon and a half. I worked out everyday... Wednesday was just tap class but I was sweating so it was at least a partial workout. This weeks goals are the same. 1. Drink a gallon of water a day... shooting for a gallon and a half most days. 2. Workout everyday except Sunday. Should be easy to accomplish.

I really hope that I can work past this plateau and continue on with this journey. I've been doing so well so far... this is just another set back that I need to overcome. I can't let this stop me... I still have a long ways to go.

Let the lbs melt!!!
