Day 303

My normal day with L except she's out of town and I'm on my own.  I had a little trouble getting out of bed but otherwise I was at the gym by 10:30.  I'd decided that I was going to lift weights and do the cardio.  So I was at the gym for about 2 1/2 hours.  I pushed myself a bit and I was very happy with the end result.  During the interval part of the cardio I allowed myself to go for 9 out of 10 instead of 10 out of 10 like normal.  That was my only concession to the extra workout.  The other difference for today is that I didn't weigh myself.  I'm holding off for a few weeks and will only weigh myself every once in a while for the foreseeable future.  All week my clothes fit fine, even after Thanksgiving so I'm still on track.  That's what getting on the scale is for and since I'm wearing my clothes that are smaller, that's my new scale.  If the skinny pants start not fitting as well than I know it's time to workout harder or cut back on the pizza and cookies.  Or both.  So here's what actually happened:

Breakfast: Turkey and egg on a skinny bun with cheese and almond butter.  The turkey was Thanksgiving leftovers and I topped it off with 20oz of cold water.

After workout meal: Lamb, stuffing and two eggs with salsa.

Dinner: More Thanksgiving leftovers including stuffing, turkey, lamb, and pumpkin pie.
