I MADE IT TO THE GYM! That's right folks, yours truly dragged my jiggly behind to the YMCA (no need to sing) and got on the treadmill. I walked for 48 mins, burned 338 calories, walked 4.5 kilometres, at a level 5 at a pace of 3.6 miles per hour.
And... to add to my delight, I am not tired. I changed up what I ate today and I didn't have to afternoon "lazies" and feel great right now!
And.... to put the icing on the "proud-of-me" cake, I also drank 1 full litre of water and have just filled up my second one to drink throughout the night.
Breakfast today was 1/2 of an Oh Yeah! bar, and a fat free, no sugar added, no aspartame, Blue Menu raspberry yogourt and water (flavoured with PC no sugar flavour crystals - tangerine/grapefruit...tastes a little like that McDonald's orange drink they used to have).
Lunch today was 1 piece of weight watchers multigrain bread, toasted with a little butter, and 1 individual serving can of yellowfin and olive oil tuna on top. 1 apple cut in to quarters with some natural peanut butter on it (about 1 1/2 tbsp) and water.
Then I went back to work, then to the gym, now at home.
Snack while making dinner (to avoid getting to that starving stage) 1/2 cup of celery and cucumber with a teeny bit of lemon poppyseed dressing.
Dinner tonight will be fresh salad (cucumber, onion, orange pepper and celery with a little dill and garlic cheddar cheese, olive oil and aged white wine vinegar), chicken thighs baked in the oven with Amo's secret garlic marinade.
That will be it for the evening. I am going to try and get the rest of this water into me and stay away from all that late night snacking.
OOooooooo..... I almost forgot! I also signed up for a learn to run program at the YMCA (again... no singing required) that will keep me busy 2 nights per week. Start Monday so stay tuned for exciting updates. Measurements and what-not tomorrow..... eeek!
