Every time I am amped to get going and am feeling really good to start- derailed! Maybe that is my test though....can I break though whatever gets thrown in my way to continue take care of myself? Yesterday, I wasn't planning on working out yesterday anyway, so I didn't feel guilty for for making it to the gym. I lost a full pound in an incredibly unhealthy way through all the stress of yesterday and by not eating. I have, NO DOUBT, put it all back on today and then some!
I was still an emotional mess this morning. After my 4:00am. shower (because I had nothing else to do to pass the time), I decided that it wasn't in my best interest to go to the gym. It really sucks too because I was doing my regular cardio, adding in my lower body strength training and abs. To top it all off, I only ate a granola bar this morning, waited until well after 3:00pm. to eat a philly cheesesteak for lunch and then scarfed down 6 mini-Reese cups at 10:00 (as I'm typing this) for dinner. Awesome!
For meals this week, I am keeping the same plan I had before, with a little tweaking. For breakfast on running days it's the egg white, spinach and cheese wrap with a little yogurt. On non-running days, it's Special K cereal with fresh fruit. Lunches are almost always grilled chicken salad with tons and tons of veggies. If I don't have time to put that together or haven't grilled the chicken, it's a frozen Lean Cuisine or Smart One. Dinners this week are a little of this, little of that. We are having spaghetti with veggies, grilled fish a couple nights, chicken parm, taco salad, hamburgers with sweet potato chips. Everything I do is loaded with veggies and is as healthy as it can possibly be. Jo, I promise I will pass on the recipe for the nuggets soon as well as sweet potato chips. If I can ever get my act in gear, I will also pass on my tricks for quick, easy dinner (for those nights when we forget to pull something out for dinner) that are super super healthy.
