So here we are again. Today (last day of vacation) I got up, went to the gym, grocery shopped, and prepared for work day lunches. I ate fairly normal and still enjoyed my time off. I did cardio today at the gym. It was 24 min on the recumbent bike, then 5 min (still slacking off there due to the leg/knee) on the row machine, moved over to the treadmill for 10 min and finished up with another 12min on the recumbent. So a total of 51 min of cardio. L and I talked about the fact that I was going to start doing more weight training alternating with the cardio and she suggested that I'd need to up the cardio. That seems to be where I'm losing weight. I'm trying to keep the overuse down so I can overcome the leg/knee thing. For know I will see how that works. Stuff I've read keeps saying weight training helps you lose weight but I'm not completely sold. Of course it could be I'm not working hard enough. We'll see. Alright what did I eat today?
Breakfast: Egg sandwich with turkey, feta and skinny bun. 20oz of cold water.
After work out: 1/2 of an Asian chicken wrap and onion beet salad. Also 4 cookies I made yesterday.
Snack: One Landjaeger and two cookies.
Dinner: Pre-made chicken salad from Trader Joe's mixed with the onion/beet salad.
So back to work tomorrow. I'm going to try to walk for 20-30 minutes during lunch and then eat lunch so as to up my cardio. We'll see how that works. Sometimes it takes me 10-15 minutes to put my lunch together so not exactly sure if this would work. Going to try though.
