Day Sixty-one

The start of the new week and here we go.  An ok day as I'm feeling the workouts from this weekend.  The Sat workout with L and then the bike ride on Sunday are making themselves known on Monday.  I went to the gym after work as usual but took it a bit easier as my legs were demanding my attention.  I just did the recumbent bike and then a couple of minutes on the treadmill.  Total time was about 30 minutes instead of 40.  I was back on track in the morning though, doing the 6/6.  Of course you don't want to hear about that stuff you want to know what I put in my belly today.  So here it is:

Breakfast: Egg sandwich with veggie burger, tomato, cheese, and a skinny bun.  Banana and 20oz of cold water.

Snack: Greek yogurt w/almonds

Lunch: I had the enchiladas I made on Sunday.  Added a small scoop of cottage mixed with salsa and four mini peppers. Yes they'rrrree baaack.  I had two of the enchiladas and in hind sight it was too much.  I am planning on Tues lunch only eating one.  It should be interesting to see if I can only eat one as there will be two in the container.  I'm hoping that I can remember how I felt today after eating two.  I felt heavy and blotted.  I think that's why I felt the way I did at the gym.  I ate too much and paid the price.

Snack: Going to break for a snack didn't happen (the snack not the break).  I still felt full and lethargic from lunch.  It would continue to hound me until after the workout and I was at home.  I really hope to only eat one enchilada for lunch tomorrow.

Dinner: After work on my way to the gym I was really debating what I'd have for dinner.  I was still feeling the effect of my huge lunch.  I figured I'd just have a yogurt w/almonds and call it good.  When I got home I finally started to feel hungry and so ended up having a salad made up of Mache(fancy lettuce), avocado, tomato, mini peppers, quinoa, cottage cheese, cauliflower, and a low cal salad dressing mixed in with a salmon patty.  I tossed a handful of corn chips on top for crunch.  I also had some of the roasted beets and yam.  There was a candy cane from Christmas sitting next to the computer and I went for it.  A small indulgence at the very least.  So there you have it.  Another thrilling time with Al and his food choices.
