So a week ago I felt quite different than I do today. Last week depression, this week matter of fact quite the opposite actually. Life is so weird. Pretty much the same situations as last week but such a different outlook makes all the difference. Which is funny because weight wise I didn't lose any weight this week. Still, don't feel like it's a set back. At least not today. I think my entry for weigh-in day was a bit down but today not so much. I guess it just takes perspective and distance. I'm trying to think about the difference and the only thing I can pinpoint is, cardio. Last week I did weight training on Monday and today I did cardio. The cardio I'd been doing for the last few months. The cardio I stopped doing because of the leg/knee. I feel like now I can push a bit harder and not worry about the leg/knee as much. It still has it's moments but overall almost back to normal. Ok here's the deal for today:
Breakfast: Egg sandwich with sliced turkey, tomato, avocado, and skinny bun. Banana and 20oz of cold water.
Snack: Greek yogurt w/almonds
Lunch: Wrap with steak strips, roasted cauliflower and asparagus, tomato, cheese, and salsa.
Snack: a stick of Landjeager
Dinner: Spinach salad with cauliflower, asparagus, tomato, salmon patty, red pepper, and low fat dressing. An apple.
See that apple I had with dinner? I was still hungry after the salad and so went to the kitchen to get something else. Wasn't sure what I was going to get but possibly something not as good for me as an apple. I spied the apple and it just felt right. So I had an apple instead of some chips or something equally as bad.
Went to the gym after work and did cardio. I skipped the full warm-up I've been doing as I try to tweak my time at the gym. I can only be there approximately an hour so gotta get busy and get to it. I think I have to work on that. My new workout schedule (which has already changed from what I was going to do) will be Mon-Tues cardio, Weds weights, Thurs cardio. I want to see how that works. So there we go as I constantly tweak the workouts I'm doing.
