So . . . completely went overboard Friday night, but you know what? I'm not sweating it. It was what it was, I had a good time, and I'm not going to let that phase me.
You what what is going to phase me? Earbuds. I HATE earbuds. All this time, I thought my ears were normal, but apparently, they aren't. I haven't met an earbud yet that will stay where it's supposed to for more than 3 minutes at a time. One of my little tricks when I work out is to get lost in the music so I don't focus on how much time I left or how tired I am. But you can't zone out when you have to adjust the earbuds every few minutes. I know they make elongated earbuds that fit in the ear canal, but seriously, I don't want to go around sticking speakers deep in my ears.
%$^&!!! I need some official headphones. And don't even suggest Beats by Dre. They're a step under Bose and for the record, for the amount of money you spend, Bose isn't that great.
I did my cardio workout today, and I stepped it up just a little bit (maybe a little too much - 1, 5, 3, 7, 5, 9, 5, 7, 3, 5, cool down). I was breathing a little too hard and I could feel my pulse, so I have to wait a little while until I'm ready for that level. I'll try it again in a couple of weeks to see.
The Man was at the gym with me and helped me craft a weight-training routine. I'm excited about this!
So what did I eat today?
- Water: 33.8 ozs
- Multigrain oatmeal with a cup of coffee. About 300 cals.
- Medium banana. About 120 cals.
- Protein bar. About 300 cals.
- Turkey burger with crispy onions & cheese on a bun with about 10 fries. About 800 cals.
About 1520 cals less the 348 cals I burned off = 1172 net cals.
Sunday, 3/13
The Man's shoulder has been bothering him, so we didn't go swimming today. I could have gone by myself, but it's no fun without him there, so I went over to the gym and did a short (22 mins) cardio workout (1, 3, 5, 7, 5, 3, 5, cool down), and then some grocery shopping with Ameme. A pretty low-key day, that was alright with me.
So what did I eat today?
- Water: 20 ozs
- 2 scrambled eggs on a small pita. About 280 cals.
- 2 cups of coffee. About 200 cals.
- Picked at some chicken wings. About 300 cals.
- 8 oz of pan-seared steak with basmati/wild rice mix & broccoli. About 1000 cals.
About 1780 cals less the 247 I burned off = 1533 net cals.
