Day 251

It's meet with L day.  A day I look forward to every week.  We go over what I've done in the past week and she puts me through a workout.  At the same time we talk about the future, hence the biathlon in October.  She gives me advice about all things fitness and health-wise in and out of the gym.  I've said it before and I'll say it again, I'm glad I met her.

Okay so it is a Saturday and as usual I have to be careful to not over indulge.  The weekend is always an issue.  I've started a new program though where I come home, eat my after workout meal and then go out grocery shopping.  It doesn't take the whole day, but it still helps to get out of the house.  Rather then sitting around watching movies or playing video games.

So that's what I did today and here's what I ate:

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

After workout meal: Two mini Greek pizza's from TJ's.  Made them into sandwiches with a chicken patty and an egg.  Baby carrots and hummus on the side and a peach/green tea drink.

Did rather well and didn't eat again until the evening.  During the day I made up some quinoa and tried to make burgers with it.  I mixed in some black beans and an egg and then fried them up.  Not bad.  I will eat them for lunch in the coming week.  Planning on wraps with them and some veggies.

Dinner: Mini wonton's in soup with broccoli and carrots.  Mixed in some quinoa with the soup.  I was still hungry so had a quinoa burger on a skinny bun with tomato and avocado.  Couldn't help it, as I was frying the burger they smelled so good.  I hope the wraps won't be too bland.  I think I will take some BBQ sauce to liven the wrap up.

L and I talked about a low impact but still aggressive workout to offset the workouts I'm doing on the cardio equipment and the Tabata workout.  I want to get in a great workout but try to mitigate over working my knees and shoulders.  I think the plan we talked about will be satisfying for me.

Keep up the good work! Give those knees and shoulders a rest. Rest is never a bad idea. It just means you will come back stronger. I am proud of you. I am very blessed to have met you as well. You are an inspiration. Keep at it!
