Monday Morning
Not a ton to tell this morning. Mark and I hit them gym early (about 615a) and managed 1100m on the rowers. My goal was to add 250m each visit but I don't think that's possible right now. We were wiped out and it only took 6min to get there! Right now I can never see making a 10K session in an hour. We are so weak at the end of 1100m that it feels like a full workout.
Just have to take my final exam today for accounting. It was supposed to be last Monday but it was cancelled due to weather. Did I use the extra week to study???? I'm pretty sure all the extra cross-stitching I did over the snowy break isn't going to help me much! Too bad I can't put that skill on a resume!
Oh, Mark and I did both lose weight on this weigh-in. He's down 3, me 2. Not too bad since we really haven't addressed our eating habits yet. The gym was our first step to weightloss and somehow seems less painful than giving up our bad eating!
I did make one concerted effort towards "slightly" better food choices. I purchased tortillas to eat with my eggs instead of the 3 pieces of toast I usually consume. I was able to split 2scrambled eggs with onion, bacon and cheese quite nicely over 2 small tortillas. I know it's not ideal but it's better than the way I was making my omelets up to today!

edit: I looked at the nutritional value for the tortillas vs bread and basically, they are equal in calories and carbs. So not a great deal of benefit to me there. However, I realized though that with the tortillas, I'm not using any butter which i slathered on each slice of toast so there's my improvement!
