adventures in exercise ... and some honesty.
tonight I ventured out via bike to head to the gym. The afternoon tstorms
appeared that they'd pass by us tonight. When I got down the road a couple miles I came out on an open field that gave me a better view of the skyline and it looked very ominous. The winds were blowing from all directions - sea beeze from both east and west were meeting up right overhead, I had a headwind no matter where I rode. So, instead of getting stuck at the Y, I turned back and rode home. I still got my 20 min, 4.5 mile ride in. I grabbed my keys and headed for the Y for a weight workout. It did sprinkle a bit while I was in the gym. Chatted with this one woman a bit who was dissapointed as she hasn't been able to swim all week as the pools closed in the rain/storms. Came home and took the dog for a walk. GOOD NEWS! I ventured a jog with the dog. First few steps were a bit ruff on the knee until I found my groove. I did a half mile run before I gave in and decided not to overdo the knee. The knee reminds me its there - but it is getting better. I'm always very careful on it. And then the honesty.... Today's food intake: Breakfast - 1 piece of carrot cake (corner piece, double the creamchees frosting) and a scoop of Edy's butter pecan icecream. (birthday celebration at work). I'd kinda planned for that today. Lunch: hangs head in shame Same as above. Snack: a couple mindless eating peppermint paddies. Don't ask.... Funny thing is, I wasn't hungry at lunch - as the cake from the late (10am) breakfast was still keeping me satisfied. I ate anyway, and on top of it, right after the sugar spike made me feel nauseous. I had plenty of other options, but.. well... we all have our days. shrug So, calorie wise I'm ok. But its all been crap food. shame on me. maybe I'll do a protein only day tomorrow to make up for the carb only day today. even it out, so to speak. :-) |
