So day 1 was actually a semi-success. Forget the fact that I woke up at 161.9 pounds and am at 163.3 now right before bed. But it wasn’t because of a bad day – rather still being punished for 12 months of bad days.
Today I started off the day with one of my favorite running buddies – Tracy. I always find myself talking to her as if she were my therapist. She is such a good listener and so very unsightful. A side benefit is that it sure makes the running go by faster. I just hope I listen half as good as she does and I don’t talk her ear off completely!
Food today was fair: 2 eggs with toast and low sugar grape jelly, a lowfat raspberry yogurt, spaghetti (w/whole wheat noodles and low fat sauce) for lunch, caramel corn, grapefruit and strawberries for snack, wrap up with a big salad and a bowl of cereal for dinner. I know. Odd dinner combination. Oh! And a glass of wine (yummy!). In case you are wondering, I am perfectly aware of the wrongness of caramel corn on a diet.
My pts for the day (weight watcher pts) ended right on target: 22 pts plus eating 5 exercise points for the 40 minute run.
Tomorrow will be a bit tougher. I have an all day meeting – which means no snacking. And I may be eating who knows what for lunch. Plus, I can’t work out until evening while watching the Biggest Loser. I’m thinking lots of treadmill walking plus a revised version of P90x chest and back. I can’t do the whole thing right now anyway since my shoulder is still bothering me when I do pushups or fly.
