Got to the Y today
Eventhough I posted this goal yesterday, I am counting going to Zumba at the Y on Monday night. so that is 2 so far for the week. Not sure if I will get there tomorrow. (Have a long drive to Allentown in the AM, which is like 2 hrs each way.) I did 36 minutes on the treadmill, 2.32 miles, (Warm up 5 min, jog 7 min, walk 5 min, jog 7 min and then walk and cool down.) Did 20 mins of lower body weights. Haven't done weights in 2 months, so I was surprised at how well I felt. Tried not to push myself too much and hopefully will not be sore tomorrow.
Eating yesterday wasn't bad. 2 days in a row of 1700 calories. But based on Fitday and my metabolism, gotta get down to about 1400 calories per day to lose 1 1/2 lbs per week. So I will try to do better today. I had Cheerios, 1% milk and 3 cups of coffee, 1 raw carrot, grilled turkey burger, 1 slice of Oatnut whole grain bread, some water, banana, pork chop, baked potato (it was a large one), SMart Balance buttery spread, string beans, unsweetened iced tea with Splenda and I did eat one of my ice cream sandwiches for dessert. Gotta get better with water too. I did Wii Walk It Out yesterday for 50 minutes or so. So another day over 10,000 steps. Shooting for 105 miles this week on my walking group challenge, and so far so good. I should make it at this rate.
I have felt very blah, overwhelmed, unmotivated this week. Just feel like I am getting no where and not getting anything done. Hopefully, getting back to the Y will help with this. still praying for that break with work and still trying to pick a day to take off of work for a personal day. I am blessed in that respect in that I get 29 personal days/vacation days a year.
Penn State Blue/White game is Saturday! Cannot wait! One thing I am looking forward to. My Aunt and I are going. will get in lots of walking. Will probably blow up my calories for the day between a piece of pizza and some ice cream, but I don't care. Will try to keep it light the rest of the week to make sure I am down on Sunday. Praying for good weather for the day.
