Before After

Better day!

So I woke up around noon and my bf wanted to go to the diner for brunch.  I decided that I hardly eat out, so I would get some really yummy goodies, but only eat a reasonable amount.  I ordered a bowl of potato-leek soup which was pretty much enough to fill me.  And I had a philly cheese-steak sandwich! I told myself I'd only eat a few bites, but I ate the whole thing!   Good thing I didn't eat any of my fries, because the whole meal came in at 1130 calories! Nearly my whole day's worth of calories!  I didn't feel like hitting the gym after a meal like that, so I kicked back for a bit.  Then I started thinking and I decided I was going to burn off a good chuck of today's lunch instead of sitting around feeling sorry for eating what I knew I shouldn't have. So, I went to the gym.  20 minutes on the elliptical, 10 minutes on the treadmill with 14 pounds in handweights, then 30 minutes wokring the upper body with free weights, and while I waited for the bf to finish out his workout another 10 minutes on the treadmill.  Grand total of calories burned: 574!!!  The most I've ever burned in one workout session. Yay!

Then I decided to treat myself to a child sized coconut ice from Rita's, it was worth every calorie.  And after all of that I'm still left with 543 calories for dinner, which I might go over just a little bit, but no big deal really.  My body and mind felt so good after the workout that I decided to stop being stubborn and join the bf in a little meditation.  We rolled down the windows in my car, closed our eyes and listened to the birds.  It was nice.  I'm feeling good today. Thanks for all of the support!
