Usually when I'm at home alone, I pig out if there's unauthorized food in the house which, right after Christmas, of course there's stuff.
Yesterday was good ... For the most part. Everything was going along just fine, had breakfast, morning snack, great cardio workout and a sensible lunch. Then it hit me. I absolutely HAD to have chocolate which of course we had on hand. So I had 4 small chocolate goodies we made about 6 weeks ago (they were in the freezer). Usually that would trigger a binge ... For some reason it didn't. Maybe because I had a small apple right after that to help stabilize my blood sugar. At any rate the rest of the day was fine.
I'm not sure what happened. This was not a "I feel like chocolate" this was I HAVE to have this. And it was very specific. Odd....
Anyway, boy I was in pain today. My upper, inner thighs (abductor I think) and core muscles were so freeking sore I had trouble walking. It's getting better though. And it's almost bedtime already.
Tuesday and Thursday nights are Barry's circuit training nights. We didn't eat until about 8:00 ... not great ... but I just won't have my evening snack (yogurt and almonds). I believe we're both more committed about Barry's workouts. He's been really good with cardio days; not so much with weights. I hope this has changed. At least with circuit training it is both cardio (to some extent) and weights.
On Barry's cardio nights, I have a task ... The goal is to climb the CN Tower (1,770 steps if I remember correctly). I'm getting better at stairs but they've always been my nemesis. I figured I have to walk 60 flights of the stairs from our basement to the main floor. So tomorrow I'm starting with 5 flights. And I'll add a couple of flights every other day. Wish me luck? I think I'll need it.....
Before I start rambling, I shall bid you adieu ... until tomorrow. Actually ... just one more thing ...
I'm in LOVE with these shoes ... I want them. I need them. I have to have them ... kinda like those cookies ....

Now if you did the CN Tower stair climb in those shoes I'd be REALLY impressed!
ReplyDeleteYou are doing great! Keep up the good work and....MAN! I think those shoes are way awesome. I'm a shoe freak myself. Cool beans. I don't know if I could wear them though. They look almost painful, in a don't my feet look hot so I don't freakin care, kinda way. Hee hee.
