So I begrudgingly got up this morning and did my upper body workout. Pretty good workout still only doing 12 reps with the same weight I started with but all in all it still has me sweating. After the workout and I looked at the clock all I could think was I must not have been that tired since I shaved off 20 minutes from my normal time. :) That made me feel pretty good. This afternoon I hit the gym for cardio and was all set to beat my time but that just didn't happen. To start out my foot felt like it was being crushed... I think I tied my shoe too tight. Then when I got up to 4.3 speed my shins felt like they were going to explode... I ended up having to take it back down to 3.8 in order for the pain to stop. I eventually was able to get back up to 4.2 but still it was too late to make up the miles. I ended at 4.28 miles. Tomorrow is cardio.
Did ok eating healthy today. I had my normal half of a whole wheat bagel with peanut butter before my workout this morning. Then I had a hard boiled egg, a handful of almonds and some cheddar cheese for lunch. For dinner we had chicken apple sausages with green beans and potatoes. I went heavy on the veggies and stuck with just 2 sausages... should of probably only had 1 though. Other then that I've had some pickles. I've also upped my water immensely I'm up to 7 liters of water for the day and just started my 8th liter.
I went and picked up a pair of size 6 jeans today and I'm not sure if I'm ready to wear them or not. I kind of feel like a stuffed sausage in them. :(
Ben and I have decided that we want to get out of town this weekend so we are going to head up to the cabin on Friday. Since Saturday is upper body again we are going to take up the dumbbells and band so that I can do my workout up there. I might not be at home but that doesn't mean I have to put off my workout!
Let the lbs melt!!!
