Day 331

Well here we go again.  I went to the gym and did the workout L wrote up for me yesterday when we didn't work out.  I will say it was quite the sweat inducing time.  I like it because all I need is a dumbbell or two and I'm good to go.  So if the gym is busy or I can't make it to the gym I've got an excellent workout for...working out.  Yesterday one of my goals was to finish off all of the holiday treats.  In that way I hoped I could get it out of my system and be done with it.  I could only hope but unfortunately more holiday treats were given to me today.  So I give up!  As I said after the new year starts I'm on the wagon for cheating meals and treats.  So here's what I ate today:

Breakfast: Cherry Pie Larabar and 20oz of cold water.

After workout meal: Broccoli and cauliflower stir fried with three eggs and sausage.  Also a skinny bun with almond butter and two slices of turkey.  To drink I had an Honest Tea Lemonade and Green tea drink.

Dinner: Was at friends and they made split pea soup with bacon.  I had two bowls with crackers.

The workout really made me sweat.  I liked it and will use it again and again.  We've talked about how to change up workouts and body areas to focus on.  I've also figured out a few things I want to focus on for the coming year.  I've wanted to increase my mountain bike riding ability and so I'll be looking at working on my leg strength.  I'd like to try to increase the stability in my knees and ankles so I can ride some tougher trails.  I'd also like to see about increasing my arm strength and endurance.  That's because I want to start pistol shooting and I think that would help my targeting abilities.  So a couple of specific areas to work on in addition to the continuing fight to get down to the target weight of 225 and ultimately 200 if possible.
